Is your car broken down? Do you have a way to get to work tomorrow?
If so you have the leverage. It’s important that until you get a car you’re really happy with, for a price you can comfortably afford, that your plan walking in to each dealership is to walk away without a car.
If nothing else this will put you in the mindset to not get taken advantage of.
Are you buying something in cash or financing?
I like this. Only financing about 1/2 the price of the car and will pay off within a year. How does this figure in?

Depending on how long of a deal you have, but with your timeframe I wouldn’t overthink it.
Don’t obsess over getting the “lowest possible number.” Just get your car, know exactly what you will pay for it, tell them to write up that exact contract immediately or walk away. Don’t let them mess with you.
