if you go to the lease board, and let them
know how many months, how many miles, year
and model of the car, Car_man can provide
that info.

2005 Altima SE (3.5 Auto)
Splash Guards
Floor & Trunk Mats- 5 piece
Protection package
 
No haggling, straight at invoice price, less the cash back
 
Was going to quote the MSRP, Invoice, TMV with all above the options, but found the numbers being different what I had 3 days ago.
 
Any way, Edmunds.com helped a lot.
 
It was the second dealer in local I bought it from. The first one also at invoice, different options, but the unit was tested drive too often with more 170 miles. The one I got was less than 40.
 
Found from another website, that the price might have been 1000 below invoice (ideally), since I found out there was $640 holdback, so might be able to get down to $300 below invoice.
 
Any way, I just loved this car (first import I owned), really help me in Twin Cities, when the temp is -8F!!

I think having the dealer get the vehicle from another dealer is risky. When I purchased my Nissan, one dealer told me they could get the vehicle from another dealer about 150 miles away. When I asked how they plan on getting the vehicle delivered, the salesman said someone would drive it from the other dealership. So someone would drive it on the interstate at 65- 70 MPH for about 2 and 1/2 hours - which violates the break-in period described in the owner's manual. I said no thanks to the deal.

Just got my purchase order on 1/12/2005:
the MSRP was listed as 24700, invoice 22833
, with 1500 cash back = 21333, I paid: 21300 (did try to knock down another 300 bucks, but couldn't)
+ title & fees.
 
Please note that the MSRP, Invoice, and Destination charges at Edmunds.com are different from that of 1 week ago (some web sites still have the same price, so Edmunds' are higher, on Altima SE V6 Auto)
 
What I know is: the destination charge I paid was 560 instead of 580 as this web site stated.
and the invoice and MSRP at this web site are also higher than one week ago. (about $100 each)

see msg 419.
 
Dave(?), if you are looking for one w/ Nav., I did have one of dealers in Twin Cities (Minnesota) quoted me at invoice over e-mail as well. Another dealer lured me into his dealership for a test drive (and that was why I decided to get a Nissan instead of a Honda or Toyota), but quoted me 200 over invoice, I just walked out and bought one from another dealer with almost identical options with 150 less miles on it (the first was over 190 miles, the one I bought was 36)
Keep in mind, [published] Invoice is not the true dealer invoice, but is a good reference point. A true one, should have the maker's logo on it, not just a computer print out. I think there's an unpulished holdback on Altimates (around $600?). So from invoice, less the cash back, there is some room to negotiate down still. Good luck

BUYING 2005 ALTIMA SE3.5 LEATHER PACKAGE by huskerdoo1
Jan 21, 2005 (9:15 am)

Hi, I currently own a 2002 nissan altima 2.5s. I love this car but it does not fair well in snow. I am considering replaceing this car with 2005 SE3.5 leather package and manual transmission which has an MSRP of around or just under 26800. I do not miind buying the manual, in fact I prefer it as I have had only 2 other automatics one of which is my current altima. I believe the stick is better for driving in the snow.
 
I have 2 questions. The first is regarding the new autmatics (which are everywhere). Is it a reasonable substitute for a manual when driving in the snow. Will the extra control be their? What about adding the TRC option, would this help?
My second question is what are people seeing this car go for in the ohio valley region?
 
pondering,
 
Thank you

if the computer printouts are what i think they are, those are just the invoices that come in before the vehicle arrives on the lot - still legit, just without the logo (they look like dot matrix printers printed them)
 
just an fyi

Just bought a 2005 Altima SL 2.5 w/Leather for $500 under dealer invoice. Took the 1.9% financing instead of the $1500 rebate. (Otherwise the deal would have been $2000 under invoice price). Easy deal with the fleet department of Miller Nissan in Van Nuys (L.A.), California. They were $500 cheaper than carsdirect.com . TMV was higher than carsdirect.com's price.
 
I personally don't like Edmund's TMV as it tries to portray the "average" price paid for this car in your area (or nationwide, if you don't enter your zip code), but that's not always the best deal you can get. I don't want an average deal; I want a good one. That's why I find the edmunds.com forums so valuable.
