I guess its time for me to give back to the community:
 
This was from Infiniti of Willow Grove (Philly area)
 
June 11, leased a G35X base with sunroof and trunk mat, twilight blue.
 
MSRP : $34,330
Selling price : $31,825.32
 
Paid a total of $1200 up front, broken down by the dealer as follows
(for some reason, they like adding all the fees to the cost of the car,
and then calling everything except your first payment "cap cost reduction".
More power to then, since I don't care how they call it -- I still know
what I paid).
 
1st payment : $435
cap cost reduction: $579.36
title fee: $22.50
reg. fee: $51.00
tax on cap cost red: $52.14
doc fee: $55.00
tire tax: $5.00
 
Total : $1200
 
Total cap cost of the car (after they add in the acquisition fee) : $32,375.32.
My payment is $435/mo. PA has 9% tax where I am. Base monthly payment (before tax) is 399.08
 
I know the residual for the 35X this month is at 61% and MF is at .00185 for a 36 month lease. For the sedan, residual and MF for a 39 month lease work out to the same payment, so if you are thinking about that -- don't. You can always extend your lease later for a few extra months by just placing a phone call, and it really isn't worth signing up for a longer lease this month -- the difference is literally 40 cents a month or so.
 
Keep in mind IFS residuals/MF for each "flavor" of the G is different -- RWD and coupe have different numbers, so my lease is indicative only of the X.
 
Also, gas mileage is noticeable -- city/traffic numbers are closer to 15 mpg, while on the highway looks more like 20-21.

Anticpated G35 purchase by chops

I have been reading recent posts for both G35 and Acura TL purchases. In reviewing inventory in my area (Charlotte, NC) seems to be a glut of G35 (30 +) on dealer lost within 100 mile radius, not so many TLs. Does anyone have insight to:
 
1. When 2006 G35 or Acura TL models will arrive?
2. Possible extension of current G35 financing deals to the month of July and beyond?
 
In any case, I'll be glad to share purchase experience when I complete the deal for either model.

I've been trading emails with a dealership in Ventura, CA and here's what I've been offered.
 
G35 Coupe
-Premium package
-Sports-tuned suspension package
-Aero package
-Splash guards
-Trunk mat
 
for $35,322. Invoice is $34,908. I'll let everyone know if I can get it lower, but as it stands right now, what do you all think?

Just don't email one dealership, contact several and let them bid against each other. Additionally, let Infinity know you are interested in other makes such as BMW or a TL, even if you are really not interested in these other cars. Get quotes from these other cars too and, as a result, you have a much stronger bidding position.

I did not really follow the price for the last 2 months or so but for $400 over invoice is pretty good for the coupe. I got the coupe in Jan for $800 over invoice in Phila area. Other dealers want $1500 to $2500 over invoice.

I'm in the NYC area looking to purchase G35x also and would be interested in the dealer you received the best price from. I was quoted over a $1000 higher for the car you described at a connecticut dealer. It sounds like you got a great deal!

CarsDirect Purchasing Experience? by dragonfish
Jun 26, 2005 (8:37 am)

I am new to this board and I was wondering if anyone has any past experience purchasing from CarsDirect. They are currently listing a G35 RWD Automatic for $29,227 (including destination) for the Southern California area, which is $100 over invoice, according to Edmunds. I am wondering how the process works with buying a car from them, e.g., where would I pick up the car and can I still get financing through Infiniti to take advantage of their 2.9% financing, etc. Also, is this a good price for Southern California? Thanks!

Ready to buy G35 6 sp. man in Cal. What about options? by hawker3
Jun 26, 2005 (9:28 am)

When negotiating with deals around MSRP vs Invoice, how does this apply to options/packages such as the premium package that sells for MSRP of $2450? There must be an "invoice level price for this as well but how do I know what might be a reasonable negotiated price for any particular package or option? Can anyone help me with this???

OK. So I am definately ready to lease the G35 coupe. Any suggestions on good dealerships on LI??? When going in to negotiate do I not tell them I want to lease and just talk sale price. Plus I need to get out of a lease (around 30 months left) err... think that will be a prob?

I am no car expert, but it is my understanding that your lease payment is based on the difference between your negotiated sale price and the residual value. Therefore it seems to be in your best interest to know that you are paying as little above dealer cost as possible. It has been my experience that once some dealers know you intend to lease, they immediately send you to the finance manager and negotiate in terms of monthly payment. I will argue that removes your control because it is difficult to know what one dollar in a lease payment translates to in terms of extra dealer profit. If you can control their profit, you will minimize your lease payment.
 
With 30 months remaining on your lease, you may have a big problem. What was the original time frame of the lease? Did you pay any additional money up front when you leased your current car? It is very likely you may have to pay to get out of your lease early. How much is your question. With the G35, if you negotiate a sales price close to dealer cost, the dealer will very likely have nothing left to help you get out of your lease early. Good luck.
