Negotiate a car price with dealers

The bot contacts dealers, asks each for a best price, uses competing quotes and discount data to push the price down, and challenges add-on fees.

Starting prompt (adapted)

I want to buy or lease a [make, model, trim, year range] within [distance] of [my area]. Find dealers with matching cars, email each one from the address I give you for their best out-the-door price, and share the lowest written quote with the others to ask them to beat it. Ask dealers to remove add-on and junk fees, and show me every email before it goes out. Do not agree to a deal, a deposit, or financing, and never share my SSN or card details; I will handle credit checks and payment myself. Keep each dealer's written quote and tell me which numbers the dealer put in writing versus what you expect.
