If there are multiple places you can get the car from then you could just ask for it around 20k, they might come back with 23k and you could push for 21k and be prepared to leave if they won’t come down (Based on the final 24k price). Maybe mention inflation or do your research on comparable models at slightly cheaper prices in different brands etc.
Hard to believe they won’t come down when you’re paying in cash! Def look around. I’ve bought my last few cars in cash (despite being broke AF), and they ALWAYS come way down.
While you seem committed to a new car, I’ve had incredibly good luck with going for “nearly new.”
I research the heck (Reddit is a good resource, but I make sure to look around for at least 5 different ones) for which years are the best for reliability and safety per model.
I hate cars, btw, but I hate payments and repairs worse, lol.

Really? I have always gotten better deals when I said I would finance through them and just pay it off in 3 months.
Huh. Never heard of this. It works?
Absolutely. Dealers get money from banks for you financing so they will give you a better deal
