The new vehicle model MSRP and invoice prices presented here are made available by the manufacturers and may include manufacturer-assessed national advertising fees when such amounts are included by the manufacturer. Whether there are any "holdbacks" or advertising fees varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.

The new vehicle model invoice prices presented does not include any of the dealer's cost for regional or local advertising or for selling, preparing, displaying or financing the vehicle. If a local fee appears on the invoice, it is an actual cost that the dealer paid to the manufacturer when buying the vehicle. In some cases dealers may write in their own ad fees on the consumer sales contract, in either case these local fees are a part of the dealer's cost of doing business.
