Purchased a 2005 G35x w/ prem C and trunk mat for $35,400 out-the-door. Bought from Jim Coleman Infiniti in Bethesda, Md. Negotiated for exact car I wanted and ended up about 1.5% over invoice. Overall, a great and fast buying experience. There was a tiny scratch in the car when I took delivery, but they buffed it out quickly with no argument. Got Twilight blue with tan interior. Love the car and the way it drives. The '05 changes on the interior and exterior are great. Conditioned the leather seats and now they're as soft and smooth as anything I've felt (other than Lexus). Good luck on your buying. I know you can get some great deals right now...but if you're in DC, give the dealers an email...someone will be willing to sell.

Replying to: pkl123 (Dec 19, 2004 7:46 pm) I got an offer for $34,000 flat in Richmond, VA. Their internet dept is really willing to deal. I think my deal was really good and fair...and the dealer was only 10 miles from home. I'm sure the deals only get sweeter until the end of the year. Good luck everyone. PS - The AWD works GREAT on ice! |

This forum was a great help to me in making this deal so I thought that I'd take the time to return the favor. Here's my deal: 2004 G35 Sedan, Diamond Graphite, Graphite Interior, Premium Package, Aero Pkg W/Spoiler. MSRP $37,060 I received $5,780 off the sticker - $31,280 plus tax & lic. I took advantage of the 2.9 financing and with $5,000 down walked out with payments just north of $500/month. I was very happy with the deal and the way I was treated at this Southern California Dealership. I don't want to "give up" this dealer, but they are near a Pier. There are ton's of '04's on the lots. Good luck to everyone who's trying to make a deal.

Replying to: ag35valleyguy (Dec 20, 2004 10:52 am) That appears to be a really good deal on the G35. It would be in your own interest to 'give up' the dealership if you already have your car. Making it known that they're giving good deals will cause people to go there, increasing local demand. That tends to prop up the local price of the cars. In the extreme, if that local dealer still has the '04s languishing on the lot a year from now because no one heard about their deals, it will hurt the trade in value of the car you just bought. Makes no difference to me, since I already have my '04 and live thousands of miles away, but 'giving up' the dealer will make them happy because they'll sell more cars; it will perhaps help a fellow member of this forum; and in the long run, it will help the resale value of your car. No one loses except other dealers who aren't giving the good deals. In the end, that's what this forum is all about -- helping buyers have the best info on actual selling prices and helping them to get better deals.

But if they dealt with you fairly and you're happy with their style, I'm sure other members would like to know where to find a good dealership. kirstie_h Roving Host & Future Vehicles Host

Hi all, I'm a newbie totally and I'm at a crossroads. I'm trading my Lexus GS300 in and am considering the G35 as its replacement. I've always lusted after the coupe but like the way a sedan feels. So basically, since I haven't test driven the coupe can anyone give me some ideas? I currently have a deposit on a 2003 G35 sedan with navigation and under 20K miles for about $26K but I spoke with another dealer who can get me just about the same deal on a coupe. Any and all feedback is welcome!! Also, does anyone think the pricing is too high? I want to negotiate some more but don't really know how much more room there is. Thanks!

Replying to: javajam66 (Dec 20, 2004 12:53 pm) But the sedan was easily my personal choice, even though I very rarely have more than one other person in the car with me. It will be cheaper to replace the tires on the sedan, and you CAN rotate the tires. The coupe's trunk couldn't come close to holding an item I carry around some of the time, even with the rear seat folded down. It fits in the sedan with PLENTY of room to spare. I think the coupe's higher power comes with a slight fuel economy penalty, and the coupe is probably going to be more expensive, even though you were told you could get 'just about' the same deal on a coupe. Insurance costs MAY be higher on the coupe, as well. If I had a GS300, I might want to stick with that, but I favor the G35 sedan way more than the coupe. But personal preferences are one of the things that make the world go 'round. If you think you are on the fence, and the deals are identical, flip a coin. If you're happy, go with the result. If you find yourself wanting to go two out of three, that will give you a different answer.

Replying to: george7777 (Dec 20, 2004 2:02 pm) The coupe's resale is higher though...and I think the $26k number is good. I actually went in looking to buy a 6MT coupe and ended up with an 05 G35x. So, my advice is to drive them back-to-back, assess your needs, check your wallet, and buy whatever suits you the best. Even though the coupe looked better, I couldn't see myself still liking 2 doors in 3 years. Best of luck! |
