Bought My G35 Coupe - SoCal/San Diego by cartman

I ended up buying my G35 Coupe. Here are the specs:
 
G35 Coupe - automatic
Diamond Graphite / Graphite Leather
-Premium Package
-Performance Tire package
- Trunk Mat
- Splash Guards
 
MSRP is $35,560
 
I paid $34,000 -- plus tax (7.75%), license, and misc fees (CA's tire tax fee $5, doc fee $45, etc.). Total was $36,963.49 after everything.
 
Place bought: Discover Infiniti, in San Diego via their fleet/internet sales.
 
I got that price relatively early on from Discovery after sending a quote request to them via Edmunds and CarsDirect - they asked what it would take to buy from them, I said a competitive price. Discovery offered $34,200 or something and I countered $34 flat. Discovery agreed, and said something like "it's an amazing price and you won't find anyone to match it." They were right. I called Infiniti dealers (and emailed them) from Oxnard to Riverside to Costa Mesa, Mission Viejo, South Bay, etc.. Most of them told me to buy it at that price, that they wouldn't match it. The closest was Hoehn in Carlsbad, with an offer of $34,245. So I bought it from Discovery for $34k. They say they are trying to move volume through the dealership. They actually had to ship the car in as a dealer trade from Tustin. It had 8 miles on it (came down on a flatbed).
 
The whole signing process was relatively quick and efficient. Only bad part was a lowball on my trade-in, so I didn't trade in.
 
Oh yeah - they could match, but not meaningfully beat, my 3.99% financing.

Incentives for leftover 03 Sedan by kcc455

Does anyone know what the incentives are for a leftover 03 sedan, 6-speed? My local dealership has one. I would like to know what incentives there are prior to negotiating? Or should I just use my supplier discount on an 04?
Thank You.

Full size spare tire question by rooch
Mar 16, 2004 (4:48 pm)

I Just bought a G35 Sedan leather with premium package with a full spare tire. A also bought the sport package. The car comes with Goodyear Eagle GS D P215/55WR17 summer performance tires. I was surprised to find the full size spare the dealership plans to provide for me is a Cooper tire (not the same as the tires on the car). I was told not to drive far on the spare because although it will work on the rims, it is not a match to the others and the width is probably slightly different. This does not seem right to me. If I did not want an interchangeable full spare, I would have paid less money for the little donut tire. What experience did other buyers have getting a full size spare (or have you even looked to see if it was the same tire)?

Something isn't right here. The ones I've looked at have tires that match those on the car.

That doesn't sound right at all. My G35x has a full-size spare with the same tire as my other four. The G35x comes with all-seasons, so I guess it *might* be different, but I doubt it. You should be getting a fully-interchangable wheel/tire.

Price I have paid by konstantin

I bought a G35 M6 sedan with a sunroof couple of weeks ago for $29,000, which is approximately five hundred above Edmund's invoice. The dealer was telling something about "market assessment fee" which he said was 400 in the bay area and is a part of the invoice. So according to the dealer I paid 100 over invoice.
 
Does anyone know what the "market assessment fee" is? Did the dealer lie that it's a part of invoice or didn't he?

Marketing Assesment. by wibble

I've posted about this in the FX35 forum already so apologies to those who have read about this stuff in there already.
 
If you look at the invoice that is sent to the dealer by Infiniti NA, you will see an item marked MA. This is the Marketing Assesment. It varies from state to state. It's $400 in Southern California. It is a geniune part of the invoice that the dealer has to pay. What confuses matters is that a lot of web sites, Edmunds included, do not include it in the invoice prices they quote.
Because of these issues, Infiniti are, according to sources I trust, going to scrap the MA and raise prices by 1.4% instead at the beginning of April.

Good Price for a New 2003 G35 Sedan? by kcc455
Mar 20, 2004 (5:46 pm)
Reply
My local dealership has a new 03 6-speed sedan with Premium Package, trunk mat, splashguards. The MSRP is $33,315 with an advertised sales price of $29,313.
1.) Is that a good price for an 03 or should I try to negotiate more?
2.) Does anyone know what the incentives are for leftover 03's?
3.) At what price is it worth getting an 03 vs. using my supplier discount on an 04?
Thank You.
