In Austin area went to Town North & South Point dealerships. Bought from South Point. Final price for a '08 Altima 2.5S with Auto with Convinience package: $19000 + TTL (about $1400). Invoice on the car is: $19460 so I pretty much paid invoice (see below). 1) $19000 + TTL included Delivery and $750 year end rebate + $500 recent grad disc (good for people graduating soon or graduated in last 2 yrs). A bit more negotiating & I could have got it for a bit less but we were in a hurry. ALso, the rebate is now $1000 I think ... 2) South Point was great experience. Went in with Phone quotes from Town North & Round Rock Nissan, they beat them. Great salesperson, very friendly, took time to go over all features of the car & educated us on the features even before we started with the negotiating. 3) South Point did have a $1200 "security package" on all their cars for BS like etching & stuff. I said flat out I wasnt going to pay for them. They never included that amt in the numbers. 4) TX law limits doc fees to $50 but that is not mandatory - you can fight the dealer on it. South Point also added about $100 in "Inventory Tax" (again not mandatory according to paperwork. I didnt fight that $150 though because both me & my wife wanted to drive out in the car, loved the car, wanted to keep a relationship with the dealer & needed a car to go on vacation in the next day. Also the salesperson was great and we were flat out tired by the purchase process. 5) We ended up buying the Altima even though it was about $2k more than the american cars we were looking at. We felt the quality, interior & resale value were worth the extra $2k. Anyone interested in an american car though & open to American should look at the Saturn Aura. We were getting an '08 Aura XE 4 cyld with power driver seat & alloy wheels for $17k + TTL ($21k MSRP) - great value, great looking car, fantastic, friendly experience at Saturn of Austin. We didnt go for it because we are import buyers and the quality of the car didnt seem upto Nissan standard yet. but next time I am in the market, I think GM would have caught up on the quality. 6) U lose the $750 rebate if u go with the low Nissan financing but their financing was 2.9% for 60 months. That definately took the edge of the extra $2k over the american cars. |

Replying to: kirizill (Jan 02, 2008 8:01 pm) I bought a new '08 Altima 2.5S with CVT with COnvinience package in Sonoma SUnset (Red) for $19000 (incl the $750 rebate) + $1400 odd in TTL & fees = $20400. My price did include the $500 recent grad disc though (people close to graduation or who graduated within last 2 yrs are eligible). Also, the rebate seems to be $1000 on the '08s now. I think Nissan increased it. Look at this forum to see if people are getting it for invoice (or a little less) in LA area & check edmunds for the rebate amt. If the $1000 rebate is there & u r not a recent grad I would ask for $20500 OTD & settle for $20900. Also, unless u r paying cash, ull probably do better w/o the rebate but with the 1.9% - 2.9% financing from Nissan on a monthly basis. |

Replying to: strikeman (Jan 10, 2008 11:07 am) My deal was the same though - $19000 + $1400 odd in TTL incl $750 rebate + $500 grad disc. I decided to forgo the $750 though so I got 2.9% APR for 60months. Unless u are paying cash, the lower financing is better. |

Replying to: strikeman (Jan 10, 2008 12:42 pm) I felt good to get mine for $20,193 and an odd number of cents.. From my calculations, after holdback, the dealer paid $20,600ish for the car, so even for me they took a $400 loss; for you that would have been a $900 loss. (once the rebate is factored back in)
