Used car prices at dealers are ridiculously marked up!

Having said that, if you do your research, and know the kind of mark up on used car, and you are good negotiator, you can get a pretty good deal on used car at stealership. I got about $2800 knocked off a $11,000 originally listed price. Pretty happy with final price. And that is with all the doc fees, BS, etc. included in the math. Especially if is an off brand car on their lot (eg. Used Acura on a VW lot).
