Just purchased an 06 G35 Sedan, Graphite w/stone, Premium package C, wood trim package, XM, splashguards, trunk mat. I paid 31279 (MSRP; 36400, Invoice; 33279, less 2000 marketing support) plus 499 doc fee, 7% sales tax, 43 title fee, for a total (no trade) cash out the door price of 34045.41. After that, I purchased the factory painted rear spoiler from parts department for 445 (discounted) plus tax. I just finished installing the rear spoiler myself, (dealer wanted 725 for spoiler and installation). Very distressing drilling big holes in a brand new car. However it turned out great, no regrets. Template if fine for hole pattern on each side of the spoiler itself, however, double-checks the spacing between the left and right side. The templates are designed for lining up on the edge of the trunk deck. When I did this the holes would have been space about a 1/4" too far apart, I readjusted the template about an 1/8" in from the edge of the trunk deck and holes lined up fine. The holes you have to drill are huge, two 3/8" (forward hole on each side, a stud on the spoiler goes through this hole and cap nuts are installed on the underside of the truck. The studs are a 1/4" they oversize the hole for margin of error, I ended up with a 5/16" hole). The two rear holes are a whopping 11/16" (a snap-in-insert goes here and a plastic stud on the spoiler goes into the insert, there is adhesive tape on the rear portion of the spoiler gasket that sticks to the trunk deck, this is because it is a blind hole and you cant attach a nut on the back side of the spoiler the way the trunk is stamped and welded). A fifth hole on the right side, 5/8" is for the electrical lead that supports the brake light, a rubber grommet goes in this hole. Electrical connections are easy as it is prewired for the wing. Like I said it looks great now, but it is kind of stressful drilling a new car. By the way I center punched holes lightly, used a new sharp 1/8" drill bit for a pilot, stepped up to a 1/4" drill from there and used a "unibit" graduated in 1/8" increments to take up to final size. The unibit makes nice clean holes but cost about $40 at home depot. Make sure you buy bits intended for metal cutting and not wood. The instructions call for a hole saw on the big holes, but the unibit makes a nice clean hole. Next I'm going to try to install myself the clear bra on the bumper. I had this in my prior G35 (2003.5) and it worked great for eliminating paint pecks (about a $180 for a precut piece of film, $325 if you have it installed by a window tint shop). |

These message boards were quite a help as I researched the car I just bought, so I thought I'd chip in. My purchase two days ago: '06 G35 coupe (graphite/graphite) New (161 miles) automatic power sunroof performance tire and wheel package splash guards trunk mat Price before taxes and fees: $32,125 ($700 below invoice) The salesman also verbally promised to provide an extra set of floor mats, but he left while I was dealing w/ financing and I'll have to track him down myself now. I purchased the Perma Plate and Mobile Guard options for what the finance guy claimed to be "cost"; roughly $800+tax for both. Turned out to be almost 40% LESS than what it would have cost to ADD those onto the extended warranty and gap coverage options, and I was buying them a la carte! ... which proves there's quite a big of wiggle room even with things like this if you act reluctant (which in my case I actually was). Took advantage of APR offer by financing the entire amount at 1.95% over 36 mo. Purchased in Santa Monica, CA

Base '06 sedan Diamond Graphite 6MT - only options were the spoiler, trunk mat, and colored splash guards. 32,649 MSRP. Ended up paying 27,723 + 149 doc fee + 25 credit check = $27,897. Very good buying experience, low pressure - I didn't have to haggle much at all, just had to be informed. They even found me pretty good financing for 72 months (6.5%). Overall a great buying experience at Bommarito Infiniti in St. Louis. Not supposed to mention by name but just ask for the internet sales manager - she was great to work with.

| I wish I waited. They just sent me an e-mail that they are selling 2006 G35x at $700 below invoice. I got mine at invoice a couple of weeks ago. It's call Infiniti Limited Engagement Summer Event. Just like the ad. | |

Grubbs made me a very good offer I think. 2006 G35 sedan, moonroof, splash guards, trunk mat. The basics. Diamond Graphite/Stone interior, with Sunroof, Splash Guards and Trunk Mat, MSRP = $33,300, DEALER INVOICE = $30,667, YOUR PRICE = $28,909 or $1,758 behind invoice I verified this thru Edmunds as dead on. The nice thing is this was on the first quote from Grubbs. Do you think this is a good deal?
