Question:
If I have a dealer swap cars to get the Honda I want in stock, will this cost me any more money over and above what I would otherwise pay for the car? I can't find much on this online, and I'm curious as to any experiences others have had when dealing with dealer trades or swaps.

Behind the scenes it's called a "Dealer Trade" Generally speaking dealers will (as was stated) swap invoice price for invoice price. So, the dealer you're working with will own it for the same price as the dealer they are getting it from.
How do I get an auto dealers license in the state of pa?
It IS also true that the new dealer will have to pay someone to go get it. They may just take this out of the profit, or they may transfer the cost onto you. How much that is wil vary depending on how far away from your dealer the other car is. If its in a neighboring town and can be picked up in short order, probably just the cost of 2 people's time to get it. If its 500 miles away, these drivers will probably have to spend the night somewhere, eat meals, fill up the tank twice, etc.....and that money has to come from somewhere.
where can i find a 1969 oldsmobile cutlass?
Someone suggested waiting to order a new one. Thats not always possible, however. Manufacturers build certain models at certain times. And sometimes colors are discontinued mid-season.... things change, is my point. 2 examples, both related to Ford Super Duty's
Tax credits to the automakers.?
Ford stopped building '06s (They call it "balancing out") in April of 2006. So, if you walked in during July....tough nuggets. Couldn't build you one...no matter how hard you begged...Ford was just not building any more 2006 F250's or F350s. period. If I didn't have what you wanted, I would have to try to find one at another dealer.....and do a dealer trade.
how to sell a product that nobody wants to buy?
The second example comes in the 2007 model year for the Ford Super Duty. The color Toreador Red was balanced out just a few weeks into the built. They used up the last of it, and then discontinued the color. There will be a similar color for 2008, but not "Toreador Red". So again, if you came in after those were balanced out....NOBODY in the country could order you a Toreador Red Ford F250 or F350. Even though they were still building the units.

It depends on the situation. You will pay at least a few hundred dollars more. The dealer has to pay someone to go get it.

How much could i sell my car for?
Ordering can be a good way to go, but dealerships can't always guarantee an exact price because the incentives will change by the time the car comes in. The manufacturer makes them go by the incentives that are in effect when the car comes in, not when you order it.
