Trust me, he will try to get that financing business later, too, and you can negotiate that as well.
Good Luck!

Agreed. I rolled in with financing in place on my own. Negotiated a buy price. Was done in 30 minutes. Then made the mistake of letting them try to beat out my financing package. Two hours later they gave up, I got the car at my price but wasted my time.
