In the mood to drive something luxurious and European? Maybe a BMW M6 convertible or a Mercedes-Benz S-Classsedan? Good news: It won't cost you as much as you think.  "To say sticker price is misleading is a mild way to put it," says James Bell, executive market analyst for Kelley Blue Book. "The profit margin on the larger luxury vehicles will generally be much better than you'll find on a Toyota ( TM - news - people ) Corolla. A lot of those vehicles have that extra flexibility baked into it."  Since luxury cars tend to boast sticker prices much higher than what they actually cost the manufacturer and the dealer, there's a lot of fat consumers can trim if they're willing to haggle. That makes vehicles like the M6 and the S-Class great cars if you're hunting for a bargain.  Full List: The Easiest Cars to Bargain For  The S-Class, for instance, lists for $96,475. But prospective buyers this summer can expect to pay several thousand dollars less than that. In fact, 60% of new cars sold nationwide sold for below their invoice price last year, according to Truecar.com, a Santa Monica, Calif.-based automotive data aggregator.  Along with those and several additional offerings from Mercedes and BMW, the $79,275 Land Rover Range Roverand $79,225 Audi A8 made our list of the easiest cars to bargain for this summer.  Behind the Numbers To compile the list, we used information provided by Kelley Blue Book, the Irvine, Calif.-based vehicle valuation company. Its analysts tracked new-car sales nationwide for the month of July, noting both the price for which the car actually sold (its "new car blue book" price) and the manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP). The new-car Blue Book value reflects a vehicle's actual selling price based on tens of thousands of recent real sales transactions from auto dealers across the U.S. It does not include manufacturer or dealer incentives.  We then determined which models sold for significantly less than MSRP. Where vehicles with different trim levels had differing MSRPs, we evaluated only the model with the biggest price cut. The vehicles with the largest difference between their selling prices and listed MSRPs made our list.  Popularity Matters One factor that helps consumers get a deal on the car of their dreams has to do with popularity. When a particular luxury model isn't super hot on the market, dealers have much more wiggle room in order to cut a deal.
Feel like haggling? These cars and trucks are the most likely to sell well under their sticker price.
