I got real lucky in March and got $37,000. for a 2006 Cayenne traded on an Infiniti G35x, which I paid invoice for. I was expecting $33,000. or $34,000 in trade, and instead of paying, I actually got $ back. The Infiniti dealer is also a Porsche dealer, so I know that I got a good deal. Hey, I guess that the dealer was a "friggin idiot"!!! |

Houston Area 54k miles Silver 2004 GTP 3.8 Supercharged Sunroof, single CD about 50% tread. Good condition, no door dings, 2 scratches on rear bumper cover Due for brake pads Looking for trade-in value/ private party value The GTPs seemed to be bringing about 1k over GTs..wonder if that is no longer the case due to requiring premium. Thanks!

Hey, I guess that the dealer was a "friggin idiot"!!! Currently, regular Cayennes are bringing $30-31k at auction. Hope the dealer sold that car quick. Chances are, the dealer showed you that $37 and used whatever incentive they had to do it. |

A quick story. I had my LX in for an oil change a few days ago and while waiting I looked over their current inventory. They happened to have a 2008 LX 570 on their used car lot with 5,000 miles. The story was that the guy did not like the color, white, and traded it on a different one. Thinking I might be able to get a good deal I asked the price. The salesman said that it sold new for $80,000. and that the asking price now was $85,000. I asked him if he was kidding. He said he was serious, that they were in short supply and they felt justified in asking a premium price. I wished him luck. It is still on their internet site listed at $85,000. Does this make sense? |
