I email the dealership and tell them what price I'm willing to pay. I've got the dealer invoice info in hand, so I have an idea (excepting holdbacks) what they're paying for the vehicle. I cut them a few percentage points for their profit, and I give them my offer.

Either they tell me they can't meet/beat it (fair enough), or they give me a counter-offer. I then take the price they give and email the next dealership with that, asking if they can beat it. Go in succession and do it to all the local dealerships and see what happens. Easy for me to do in the comfort of my own home. And it shouldn't take the guy/gal more than a few minutes of his/her time.
