fabric and paint "treatments" are nonsense. Wax is cheap, and you can make your kids wash and wax your car, do it yourself, or pay a neighborhood kid to do it... and save half what a dealership will charge you for a one time application of wax. Or just take your new vehicle to a cheap paint shop and get a coat of clear, or have a vinyl wrap put on.
financing. You either can get 1.9%, or you can bet that anything past 3 or 4% is 1 or 2% going to dealership when they obtain 1.9 and you are told they best they could do was 2.9 or 3.9... if you're only getting the word of the "finance dept" rep at the dealership. That person gets bonus money every Christmas to rip you off is possible.
Trade in. If you can make more money from your vehicle selling it on craigslist, do it.
If you can leverage the price of the new car you want by trading in junk, it might be worth your time to buy a junker and have it dropped off at the dealership. Some actually will advertise "push, pull, or tow it in, and we'll give you money for your trade in"
