Just looking at the basic package no extras. On the base package the lowest I got was 33300. Im thinking it should be lower or am I wrong? |

I just drove off with my 07 yesterday. I bought the dealer demo liquid platinum and Black interior with 600 miles on it. It has Premium and Navigation Package. Paid $36113 + TT&L. Just starting to get acquainted with the car.

Replying to: frank8040 (Sep 18, 2007 10:49 am) Especially after the dreaded 1200 mile break-in period. At least you're already half way there.... let's hope those 600 were easy miles!  Sounds like you paid $500 over invoice. I paid more like $1,500 over invoice, but that was back in the beginning of the year and I had 10.5 miles on mine. I also opted for the Tech pack & wood trim, which made the car very hard to find. I was also pretty firm on my color choice. The special order made making a deal that much more difficult. (X's are VERY popular here in NE) I've had it since April and the novelty has not worn off at all yet... still look forward to driving every chance I get.

Replying to: clutchr6 (Sep 18, 2007 9:32 am) i am glad that folks are thinking about the value of their money. that is the great advantage of forums like this. mr. superman2424, if you cannot put down 30% you probably should not buy a car at that price. true it is a blanket statement. it is meant to be...guidance. very, very rarely is one able to match the interest earnings rate with the interest and finance charges assessed when purchasing a vehicle. How do i know? I ran the numbers. I am fortunate in that I have excellent credit and could put more than 30% down. What was the result? A low interest cost..overall lower costs during my ownership of the car. AND best of alll - I AM NOT UPSIDE DOWN in my car loan. A car is not an asset. It is a possession and a depreciating liability. all one ever does with a car (unless it is used for business) is spend money on it - gas, maintenance, insurance, etc. Assets earn money. Collectable cars may be considered assets, in that it increases in value. However it is simply wrong to think of a car as an asset. It is a possession. It is only assets to dealers, who sell them for profit and spend very little on maintenance, etc. I would respectfully challenge you to find a financially secure person who understands the value of a dollar, assets, investsments and liabilities to tell you that you should put down as little money as possible on a car, thus maximizing the loan AND risk being UPSIDE DOWN. Leasing is a lifestyle choice. It should not be regarded as a financial one. Thanks for the thoughts and input.

Replying to: atl1234 (Sep 06, 2007 6:56 pm) I'm in NC, we have excessive doc fees here too. I read about $45 doc fees in CA and it makes me quite jealous. I have never been successful in getting a dealer to drop or even reduce a doc fee. I've used the VPP pricing, and talked with my sales manager about how the VPP terms omit any reference to required doc fees (it's just the VPP calculated price plus any dealer-added options, plus tax/tag/registration fees....no doc fees). It was fruitless, he said he even had to pay the doc fee when he bought his personal car. I understand that it depends on the dealer and some will negotiate it, but I haven't been so lucky in NC (or even know anyone that has).
