I went the 3.9 financing route...and I think they gave me a mileage adjustment because I paid 135 under invoice and well under TMV(per edmunds). If it wasnt the best deal, I can live with that, but I know it wasnt a bad deal(which would bother me).
#5153 of 8972 2K2 SE Auto 12000 mile update and lateral link recall by sgrpwpp Jul 15, 2002 (3:45 pm)
Haven't posted for a while, so here goes my 12000 mile update; been averaging 24-25mpg using 92 or 93 premium, no problems to report, other than the slight hassle of the electronic throttle and recent lateral link safety recall work. BTW, just got the new lateral links put on today at Central Carolina Nissan in Sanford (near Raleigh) NC. Two hours as promised, including the required alignment...I also got them to do an oil change and tire rotation. Good service dept., punctual appointments, and they actually let you hang around the car while it's being worked on, hand the tech the nuts and bolts, check your underbody and brake pads, etc. Really neat. I have a Frankencar intake installed, maybe even better MPG, certainly no less, and the ROAR up around 3-5000 rpm...sounds (and runs) like a Mustang Cobra!! 12,000 miles and nothing at all bad to report, this car is great!
#5154 of 8972 solicited internet bids on 2002 Maxima SE by sheryl22 Jul 15, 2002 (4:25 pm)
I'm in the process of receiving bids from all local dealers on a new 2002 Maxima SE (automatic), and have found that I can get $500 below invoice on base price of car, the options I want (leather, bose, sunroof) at wholesale, and 3.9% for 60 months. Do you think I could do better....ie, ask for $1000 below invoice? or is that being too greedy?? Also, could I go out of state to purchase and avoid a sales tax?

Base price under invoice, but options at wholesale?   What is the "out the door" price with options you want? I would think with the end of the model year and the fact the 03 maximas are already coming in you should be able to get "invoice" price without much haggling-possibly under.   You can go out of state to buy a car- but I dont think you can avoid sales tax. It varies from state to state where you pay it, here in OK you pay sales tax when you register the car.

Even if you buy a car in another state, they will make you pay sales tax on it when you register it. So there is no winning way to do it.
#5158 of 8972 from sheryl by sheryl22 Jul 16, 2002 (7:50 am)
The deal(s) offered on a 2002 Maxima SE are: wholesale ($22871) minus $500 = $22371 plus wholesale options of leather ($1347), sunroof ($779), premium bose ($953), destination of $540, plus various doc fees, tag, title, etc of $400 = drive out price of $26390 (only thing not included is my state sales tax). Anyway, because this is a 2002 that the dealers want off their lot to make room for the 2003, can I ask for more off wholesale? How much more without being insulting? Thanks!!

You can ask for what ever price you are willing to pay...   It sounds like this car is equipped like mine. Auto or stick? Perhaps ask for an even 26000? The deal sounds pretty good as is- so the bottom line is if you want the car IMO its not worth quibbling over a few hundred dollars, especially with the good incentives available on the 2k2 maxes. Your potential deal is already better than the one I got and I felt I did better than OK. I paid 26500 for 1700 mile demo. Stickered for 29753.

I just got my new 2002 Maxima SE(6 miles) two weeks ago with 6-speed manual transmission, sunroof and bose system. The MSRP was $28135,I paid for $21315 plus tax & fee, the total out the door price was $23205. I think is a very good dear base on what you guys have disscused. There were 5 cars on sale for the same discount. I am wondered how the dealer survives by saling a car for $3000 below invoice.

Can you tell me where they are giving this price? Location, web address or something. Sounds so good I may have to buy earlier than I planned.   Jim
