#285 of 2422 Re: SL: I paid 24,714 - Re: Well Satisfied ! [rayainsw] by onerepair Jul 16, 2004 (9:03 am)
Replying to: rayainsw (Jul 16, 2004 7:00 am) Driving impressions so far:   Ride - Firm, smooth & precise- not "cushiony" like big Mercurys   MPG - Took a 150 mile drive - one way - half on I-95 non-stop, the       other half on old RTE 40 numerous stop 'n go with lites - trip        computer said I got 30.5 MPG. Usually drove 5-10 MPH over       speed limits. Around town mileage - 25.4 - premium gas   Wind Noise & Road Noise - Very little wind noise - good aerodynamics.                            A critic at Edmunds.com complained about                            "excessive road noise". Frankly I failed                            to see the basis for that statement.                            Perhaps it was his/her road surface and/or                            tires.   Cabin - well laid out - roomy & comfortable - gives one the impression         of driving a "big" car. I'm 6'1" 230 lbs - plenty of room.   Squeaks & Rattles - None   Interior Finish - some little things Nissan could have done a little                   better at practically no extra cost. Very minor.   Acceleration - Excellent with 250 HP 3.5 V-6 - Quiet too! 65-75 MPH                absolutely effortless. No torqueing when you "step                on it".   Transmission - smooth, quiet, and precise.   Braking - Very smooth - no pull to left or right.   Visibility - Excellent - no glaring "blind" spots. Electrochromatic              mirror does what it says it will do. No more day/night              flipping.   Electronics - all systems "go". Bose CD/stereo very good, but not                absolutely the best.   Service Problems - Simply too early to tell. None at the moment. Replies to this message: john55 (Apr 20, 2005 3:51 am)

Also what is a fair amount for doc fees? Thank you in advance.

Replying to: rick3 (Jul 21, 2004 2:22 am) Wow! That's a really good price. Was that auto or 5spd? I'm looking at the exact same car and hoping for the price you got. Would you mind giving more details on how you negotiated to $17500?   Thanks!

Replying to: janamax (Jul 21, 2004 6:36 am) The car is an automatic, I had checked carsdirect.com and their price was $17497 so I knew that I wanted to be at $17500. My experience goes like this, walk into dealer and ask for test drive, then I told him that I was interested in a second car and wanted to know what the best price would be on the Altima. He came back with his manager and bought the invoice price sheet with him which was $19043 give or take a few dollars. He asked me if I would purchase it for $300 over invoice and I said no, he then said how much are you looking on spending,'I said around $17000' he then said well let me check with my boss, he came back with $17999, I then said what are all the 9s for? he said thats our best price and we are selling at a lost! I said the best I could do was $17500 but I would have to check with my wife on your price, I shook his hand and I said I'll call you later, he then let me walk about 10 feet and said would you buy it now for $17500 and I said yes...., 3 hours later I was driving the car home...remember decline the rebate, swing your best deal and get 1.9 finance, if done right, it will be equal to getting the rebate and the low finance together....good luck Rick Replies to this message: janamax (Jul 21, 2004 6:56 pm) rick3 (Jul 22, 2004 4:11 pm) janamax (Jul 23, 2004 5:53 am)

Replying to: rick3 (Jul 21, 2004 12:25 pm) Thank you so much for that info and advice, Rick! I'm wondering if the car you bought had any extras on it (floor mats, splash guards, etc.)? I can't seem to find anything near me without at least those (worthless to me) additions, which start to add up! If yes, did you ignore the cost of those during negotiations?   Thanks again!
