#388 of 2422 Ave Price Paid vs Invoice? by maddcoww Dec 05, 2004 (4:31 am)
What are people generally paying compared to invoice for Altimas (2.5 specifically)?   Maybe I'm being lazy (or just a little slow), but I don't know all the packages well enough to form an opinion when someone says they paid $19,500 or $21,200 (or whatever amount). I was hoping to avoid having to go back out to the main page here at Edmunds and build that person's car, to see what they paid vs. invoice.   One dealership has quoted me Invoice +$400 (then minus $1500 rebate). I'm pretty sure that's not a terrible deal, but I don't know if it's a great deal. (I live near Akron, OH - if that helps/matters)   Thanks in advance...

#389 of 2422 Best deal for Nissan 2.5S by sas Dec 05, 2004 (8:53 am)
with floor mats, trunk mats, with rebates with tax and registration and dealer fees ( basically out the door) should not exceed a dime more than $19000. If you got it under, you got a best deal.

Replying to: maddcoww (Dec 05, 2004 4:31 am) Maddcow, we got our 2.5 S 2 weeks ago for $500 BELOW invoice, and then subtract the $1,500 rebate.   $400 above invoice is paying about $800-900 too much.

i know everyone is looking to get a great deal, but there comes a time when people have to realize that this is a business, and a dealership should be entitled to make 'some' money. If you consider the markup in some of the other products you buy, for example a $3000 tv would cost the retailer only $1500, for a 100% markup - a markup of 10% on cars isnt all that much. You really should buy cars based on what you can afford per month, or cash, rather than trying to wring the dealership for all its worth. Yes, there are some crummy dealerships out there that are sleezeballs, so you got to be careful - but, if the car falls in what you've budgeted, why continue haggling?   maybe i just don't get it
#393 of 2422 Trade-in for 2.5S by molocono Dec 12, 2004 (1:49 am)
Replying to: vineetkhanna (May 06, 2002 7:01 pm) I currently have a 2004 Toyota 4Runner SR5 that I want to get rid off in order to get a '05 Altima 2.5S. I'm trying to sell it to a private party, but if I'm unsuccesful by the end of the month I might try to do a trade-in. Does anyone know if the Nissan dealer will take my SUV for what I owe on the loan? I was planning on trying to get them to pay off the remaining amount on the 4Runner loan, which is a little over $21,000. Could this work?
#394 of 2422 leased a new altima 2.5S by sandyl Dec 13, 2004 (5:30 am)
with my camry lease up, I decided to go with the Altima 2.5S with convience package. I got great deal on a sign and drive for 239/month for 36 months. Before I got the camry I had previously had an altima and maxima. Its nice going back to Nissan again. I got this deal in the metro Atlanta Area.   sandy
#395 of 2422 Buying new Altima by durandal0 Dec 14, 2004 (1:50 pm)
Hi everyone,   Just curious if anyone has bought a new Altima 2.5S that has a package similar to my own. 2005 Nissan Altima 2.5S Auto Convenience Package ABS/Side Air Bags Splash/Mats   I seem to be getting quotes in the low 19s with the 1500 rebate, this seems pretty good since most quotes on here are without ABS/Side Air Bags. However, this is my first time actually buying a car totally on my own, securing my own financing, etc, so I'm wary about getting shafted. I'm also hiding the 500 off new college graduate rebate until I meet them in person so they don't requote me accordingly. I've read the tips Edmunds gives, does anyone else have any advice?   Thanks!

Replying to: durandal0 (Dec 14, 2004 1:50 pm) We just bought the same car this week(ours also had the $70 Protection Pkg). You're right, the ABS/Side Air Bag pkg is difficult to find - and even tougher if you also want the Convenience Pkg along with it. There were only 3 in the tri-state area(MN,WI,IA). Still haven't figured out why ABS is not standard on a car is this price range. Anyway, here's our numbers:   2005 Altima 2.5S Auto Convenience Pkg ABS/Side Air Bag Pkg Protection Pkg Splash Guards Floor Mats MSRP: $22,980 Edmunds Invoice: $21,304 Paid: $21,104 - $1500 rebate = $19604 + $90(fees & title)   I'm not sure how they are selling below invoice. Maybe there's some mfg-to-dealer cash that's behind the scenes. Or perhaps they're just cutting into their dealer holdback. Nonetheless, I feel we got a pretty good deal. I got all my price quotes through email - seemed to work pretty well. If you are getting quotes in the low 19's with the rebate, I'd say you are doing pretty well.   Good luck!
