Hello Everyone, I am in FL at a total tax rate of 6.5% and looking at three options. I need some other opinions please, as I am caught between what to do. I have 15,300ish in straight cash. To cover the difference in either purchase I will have to take out a small loan. Option #1 A local dealer has offered me a Nissan Altima 2007 2.5 S, Auto, 19,000 miles, for 17,740 OTD ( Tax, Title, Reg, Dealer Fee, etc included in the price). Option #2 I try and purchase a Nissan Altima 2008 2.5 S, Auto for a Unknown amount yet. I've been reading these boards and the lowest one in FL I found I believe was for roughly 20,880 OTD, round up 21,000. Option #3 A local dealer has four 2007 Nissan Altima 2.5 S Conven Package, standard options, ZERO miles, brand new leftover still at 21,000ish. I have not contacted them yet but would they be selling these for a major discount since were already in 2008? Or no? I've done research but didn't see how they would price a 2007 2.5 S brand new, that is still on the lot with brand new 2008's on it. They have four of them left, but listed at 21,000ish. Mentioned above, would these cars sell for 17.5k 18k (price of the car, w/o tax title, dealer fee, etc) or am I dreaming? Should I go for the 2007 with the 19k miles or spend $4,000 more for a 2008, meaning I take a loan out for 6,000. Or should I seek out prices for one of the four 2007 brand new 2.5s on the lot? Many Thanks,

Replying to: sungawd (Jan 12, 2008 12:03 pm) Option 2: If you want the base model, I would aim for the $19,400-$19,500 mark before taxes, title, and plates. Add $900 for the Convenience Package. Option 3: I would aim for an additional $1000 or $1500 discount on the leftover 2007s, but its a little bit optimistic. (additional discount is off of the 2008 prices) If you choose Option 1, I'd pay cash. For Options 2 and 3, I would take the 1.9%/2.9% APR in lieu of the $1000 cashback, and put the $15,000 in cash in a CD earning 4% interest... If you go w/ a 2007, make sure it has ABS. ABS was not standard until the 2008 model year.

Replying to: jchan2 (Jan 12, 2008 6:26 pm) I was shopping around for a Nissan Altima 2.5 SL with SL & Connection package, i got the invoice price at 24,700 in and around San Jose(California) minus 1000$ (rebate), so it is coming to 23,700. Could you please let me know how low can i negotiate with the dealer or how low could the dealer go. I am not really sure, Appreciate your help.

I'm getting a deal on an '08 CVT with convenience, splash, mats, kick plate for $20K. The MSRP is $22875. Does this sound like a decent deal. The 20K is OTD since I'm trading in a more expensive car and there are no taxes. Thanks for your responses. BTW I'm in Austin, Tx

3.5SE CVT with splash guards and floor mats Houston, TX Before negotiations, just emailing out that I am interested. My best offer so far is $22,480 plus TT+L. That is roughly about $24,109 Drive Out. Still working on a better deal. Will post final price when I pull the trigger.

Replying to: strikeman (Jan 10, 2008 11:07 am) Would it be possible to email me who you worked with at Southpoint to get the price you got? I decide for the extra 2.5k, I can get a brand new Nissan 08's Auto with Conv. The 20,400 OTD and or around that is good. However, thoughts on this anyone for below, At a GMC dealer I visited 2 days ago, I was looking at a USED - Nissan 08 that is sliver, Conven Package, Rear Spoiler, Tint windows, with 7,000 miles for 19,500 + TTL. The Car price itself is 18,800 but "Dealer fee is $699, unreal". Is that worth it though, say I can get them to take the car down to 18,500 + TTL? On Ebay other used 08's are 17,995 + TTL but I would have to fly to those, (roughly 400 total which pays for the plane ticket, rental car and gas for drive back, 1k miles. I haven't found any Nissan dealers that will offer the price strikeman got. I am at a 6.5% tax rate. I'd appreciate it if that would be possible. If you still check these boards, just reply and I'll post my email. Thanks,
