The dealer is Infiniti of the Palm Beaches in West Palm Beach, FL. I haggled some more, there are no cars in the region, i am trading in my 03 still on lease at a wash, i won't have to buy tires for the 03, and i'll have a few more ponies. the dealer gets $1,600 over invoice and i am mostly ok with it.

Soflkurtz --
 
Tampa Infiniti appears to have one 6MT in stock, in the new Lakeshore Slate color. You might check with them. Also, Orlando Infiniti has one in Diamond Graphite, and NO extras. MSRP is only $31k and change. I found Orlando much less willing to deal on an '04 than Tampa, though.
 
If you can wait a bit, you might have more choices and may get a better deal, but if your lease requires you to do something now, at least you know you'll like the car.

Dealer charges do vary and are probably just additional dealer profit. The Lexus dealer charged $230 for my wife's RX. The first Acura dealer I dealt with only charged $99, but the dealer I purchased from charged $194 but that includes "free" state inspections (read: another tax in Massachusetts, $29/year) for the life of the car.
 
I never asked what the dealer fees were when I was considering the G35x.
 
$597.50 seems like a supreme rip-off, however and I'd keep shopping or try to negotiate at least another $600 off the price to make up for it! For ~$600, you could fly up to Boston, buy a G and drive it home and probably still have enough left over for a nice dinner or two!

Did anyone buy a 05 G35 sedan with just the sports suspension packages? I dont want the premium pakage that the dealer wants to tag along with the suspension package.
 
I would appreciate it if any one can tell me about price they got from the dealer.

2004 G35X Chicago by gil20

Silver/Graphite 2004 G35X, premium package, splash guards, trunk mat for $31519, $4551 off sticker. FJ Chicago. This was the best price I got after searching about 6 stores. Also took advantage of the 2.9% 60 month financing from Infiniti (2004's) so I am confident I got a good deal. If you don't think so, please don't tell me. I was going to hold out for a 2005 but they added an extra spoke to the wheels which I don't like as much as the 2004. LOVE IT! See you out there...

Ready to buy but how much and when? by g35g35

I see a lot of people are getting the 05 model for about $500 over the invoice. What kind of saving will it be great enough for you to pick a 04 model over the 05. Is it $500 below invoice, $1000 below, or $1500? Another question is do you guys think this month is a better time to purchase or next month(will next month has better promotion or more inventory or considered as slower month for the dealers)? I heard somewhere timing is everything when purchasing a ne vehicle.

I am shopping for a Mar-Apr purchase and the G35 is in the mix. If I buy a G35, it will be a 2005 6MT. I have been watching dealer inventories through the Infiniti website, and this car which did not exist anywhere in the midwest one month ago is coming into the market strongly now. The initial wave of pent up demand will allow dealers to get MSRP. Many dealers have a lot of '04 stock still on their lots and are discounting heavily (no doubt with Infiniti's support) to move them off the lots. The improvements in the '05 are worth the wait and extra upfront money. Plus, if you factor in a year's depreciation, the price differential doesn't mean much. However, if you plan on owning the car for 10 years (until there is no trade value) the depreciation issue doesn't matter. So, what's your situation? Is it a stretch to get to the buy price of an '05? Buy the '04. Will you only keep the car 3-4 years? Buy the '05. Is it important for you to have the best and latest G? Buy the '05.

I'm in Atlanta and off the bat the Internet sales manager quoted me $500 over invoice for an 05 G35, he offered $1000 under invoice on the 2004, but 05 is much nicer IMO. I told him I would think about since I'm not in any rush, I think I will get him either at invoice or 200 above at max, we have about 4 dealers in the area so I'll work them hard! Only thing he said is the dealer installs XM or Sirius at $600 (instead of factory's $400) because this allows customers to choose between the two, according to him they see very few factory xm/sirius come in, is this true or undercoating?

I only considered the '05 and it was for the following reason...if, in 2008, I decide to sell or trade in my car, I can have a car that is considered to be 3 years old (an 05) versus four years old (an 04). I don't know what the resale difference will be, but you'll probably pay for the savings on an 04 when you sell.

I considered the (6MT) '04 and '05 and went with the '04, for several reasons. The '04 has plenty of power, so the additional horses didn't mean too much to me, except a 5% or so fuel mileage penalty.
 
The larger wheels on the '05 would mean bigger expense on new tires. The 'extra' depreciation doesn't mean that much to me, since I plan to keep the car a while, and putting the extra couple grand in the bank now will certainly more than make up the difference at trade time. Also, outside the price differential, the '04 was available at 1.9% financing over three years. I put my money in a conservative investment that will yield more than that.
 
The 6MTs are just barely coming into the dealerships now, in spite of an earlier promise a couple of months ago. The new Intelligent Key isn't available on the 6MT, a feature that may have helped me decide for the '05.
 
Someone pointed out earlier several reasons for each of the '04 and '05, and I think I have discussed it before, as well. It depends on your own personal priorities.
