It's tough... I like damookster's idea of starting from a published invoice price or whatever.
I'm not sure if that will work. I think if you say you're interested in financing, they might ask for your info and do a credit check before they give you a serious price. It's been a long time since I bought a car so things could have changed, but I remember that a lot of dealers I went to, they asked for personal info, presumably to run a credit check, before they really gave a "best offer" deal.
On the other hand I could simply imply to the salesmen and sales manager throughout the entire purchasing process that I am looking to finance and that I have bad credit during negotiations to try to get them to lower the initial sales price.
