| I paid $1300 Over Invoice or $2151 Off MSRP for Black/Black I35 Nav, Sport, Sunroof/Sunshade, CWP, Full Size Spare and Rear Splash Guards | |
|
My I35 has the sunroof/sunshade pkg, rear splash guards and side sills (no installation fees). All together I paid $29,169.00 + (tax and license) = $31,790.12. That's in California. I think I got a great deal on a great car. |

eskalnyi: By my calculation, that only $873 over invoice (3.1% Over) , that was a great deal. On my 02' I35 Spt/Nav Purchase, the dealer says they get more on the I35 Spt/Nav, since you can see my was more over Invoice $1300 (4.1% Over). Not sure if this was a line. Happy I35 Driving! |

The way I made the deal was that I told them up front what I am going to pay. First I picked the car and requested to see the invoice. After matching the VIN numbers on the car and invoice I told them that I will pay 2% over the invoice + side sills and rear splash guards at invoice price with no installation fees. After about 15 minutes... I won my deal. In financing I was offered a even better financing rate. I had a 5.89% and the finance dude got me on 5.5% for 5 years. I have to admit that service was great. I highly recommend to do all your home work on everything: invoice price, MSRP on all car configurations, know your future car before you buy, drive it 2-3 times with an interval of 1-2 weeks. When buying inspect the car very well for possible damage. Do it all before you go inside to deal. Have fun and good luck. |

eskalnyi: Building Your Car, as listed on the KelleyBlueBook "Select Options" shows your setup Invoiced at $28,296, which based on paying $29,169 (that's 3.1% Over Invoice). At 2% over invoice, that would have put the Invoice at $28,596, where did the extra $300 come from. Great Deal on the Financing. I got 5.74% for 5 Yrs. |

I bought my I35 in California too..and got a great deal. I paid $28798 (plus tax & license) for sunroof/sunshade pkg and splash guards. That's just $900 over invoice. (By the way did anybody else notice a strange $400 extra charge on their invoice...some advertising fee..that the dealer pays Infiniti..that the buyer is then charged?) |

I'm a little confused by ninerlou's message. You say you paid $900 over invoice and then you mention the advertising charge of $400. Did you pay that in addition or was it included in the $28798? If included and then you paid only tax and license with no documentary fees or the like tacked on, I'd say you did very well. Thanks for your help. |

Serenoa: My $28798 price included the $400 charge I mentioned. |

| I went price shopping on an I35 this week and asked my local dealer to give me a price. He looked at the sticker ($33,870) and said "this is what their selling for". Hard to believe. I bought my I30t from this dealership, but they just lost my business. | |

Print out any of the post here and show it to your salesman. I guy on another I35 Message Board said he got an new I35 for close to Invoice. Obviously this dealer must be finding people to pay Sticker, which is very hard to believe. $500-$1000 Over Invoice seems to be the going rate these days. Good Luck, the I35 is great! |
