| I am looking at the G35 sedan with or without AWD. It appears there are very few (i.e. none) message board claims of receiving good prices in the Northwest (WA, OR, ID). I live in Oregon which has no sales tax ( definitely a bonus). Washington waves their sales tax for Oregon residence. Hence, there is an incentive for me to buy in Oregon or Washington. Unfortunately nobody seem to offer anything other than MSRP. I see G35s on the road up here in the NW, so somebody has had to buy one here. Anybody out there? | |

| I leased a G35X yesterday from Jim Coleman Infiniti. Premium Package with Full Size Spare; Wood Trim and Splash Guards. MSRP $36,075. VPP Price: $33230.85. I ended up leasing it with nothing down; 48 month lease; 10,000 miles a month. Price with lease tax is $523.88 month. I feel like that was high, but Inifinit finance said that was the best they could do. Any thoughts appreciated on other lease deals folks have received on their leases since the Money Factor here seems high (around 7.75%). | |
| Surely you meant to say, "10k mi. a year". | |

| Whoops. I did mean 10,000 miles a year. Thx | |
| I am paying about $530 a month for my 2004 G35s w/Premium package+wood+minor things. Surely G35x is more expensive than G35s, but only couple of thousand, right? I wouldn't pay that much for a lease! | |

| Is that $530 a month with nothing down? If so, sounds like you got a great deal. To get the purchase price down to around $500 a month with 2.9% interest, I would need to put $7,000 down. Chose the lease since I would rather free up the cash for investments rather than sinking it into a quickly depreciating asset. | |

CRAIG: You did not include the VPP discount in your calculations (which is 1.65% of the invoice price, or roughly $544 ). |

I checked with Nissan. Employees of supplier companies are "Business Associates" (claim #'s begin with a "D"); they are not employees of Nissan or its various affiliates (owned companies & companies jointly mfg with them). The web site was intended for employees and their families/friends. Business Associates seem to get the same deal as sponsored family/friends get as described on that web site. The dealer gets a 5% profit under the VPP. If the buyer is a Nissan employee, Nissan pays the whole amount. But mere Business Associates have to pay half of that that dealer profit themselves. $30,573 - 1.65% + 2.5% = $260 over invoice cost, + $550 destination chg + $400 advertising = or about $1200 above invoice cost overall. Still, this is much much better than any discount my AAA club can get for me on the AWD, and this kind of discount is even better than the AAA club discount price of $600 over invoice for non-AWD models plus destination + advertising. So I guess it's a good deal, just not as good as it first sounded. Craig |

It is not fair to say that the cost is $1,200 over invoice. The true cost over invoice is $260 (as you stated above). Just my opinion. (I wouldn't calculate the dest and assessment in it). |

It seems like I have narrowed my search down to the South Bay and Cerritos Infiniti dealers. I got quotes from a couple other dealers as well, but they seemed to keep tacking on misc charges. Now I just need to get my car back from the shop and sell it. For those that have leased or purchased, was the advertizing fee ($400) tacked on? For those that leased, you have to pay a $550 bank fee to IFS, but did you also have to pay the $45 doc fee? g35_wang - I am also curious if you are purchasing or leasing and how much you put down and what the terms were. stockwatch - your terms don't seem too far off, though you should have been able to get more mileage for that price. The "no down" was a nice bonus, though. Thanks for all the info and feedback. I hope to be driving a G35x within the next couple of weeks. |
