Replying to: jennma (Oct 16, 2007 10:47 am) MSRP: 41,025.00 (fully loaded) VPP: 38,001.68 (37,701.73 + 99.95 wash/wax) Unfortunately I live in NY, so I get hit with 8% tax. I live about 90 minutes away, but the local dealer near me is much smaller and wouldn't honor VPP pricing without adding a lot to it. I'd recommend Dorschel highly if you're near Rochester. I worked with David K.. I can't speak for the non-vpp experience (ie. haggling), but he was great to deal with! |

I ordered a 08, w/ premium, nav, tires, wood, for 35500 + ttl through VPP but was reading up on it again as I wait and realized that the tire package is: W-rated summer performance tires - I was curious if anyone had advice on if this will be a bad feature for Dallas, TX? Will I need to change tires? Should I just get stock tires? |

Replying to: krea99 (Oct 20, 2007 6:33 am) Other things to think about: The standard non-6mt tires are 55 series and are the same front and rear - so you can rotate them to extend the life of the tire. You can get nice replacement all season tires for under $100 each from TireRack. If you get the performance tire package you get staggered sizing with wider rear tires and wheels so you can't rotate them. While this helps handling it could lead to quicker tire wear out. Also the tires are likely softer rubber, which helps dry and wet handling at the expense or quicker wear. They are also 50 series front and 45 series rear - again a lower profile helps handling at the expense of ride comfort and the worry of denting a rim on a pot hole. The real "gotcha" comes when you try to find replacement tires in this 18" staggered size - TireRack only sells two models and they are $174-206 (plus shipping) each. Ouch! Note that the new G35x tire and wheel package uses the same size 50 series front and rear so you can rotate them, but choices are few in this size and quite expensive as well. So while *I* would probably order the sportier tires I would recommend you think about it first. Try to drive a car equipped with the package before deciding. The price and longevity of the grippier tires along with the harsher ride may make you decide to keep your money and have the dealer delete that package from your order. If you don't have another car to drive when/if you do get a bit of winter weather then you would have to stay home or catch a ride if you have a summer tire equipped car. Dennis

Just purchased 2008 G35x navigation, premium package. $1500 off MSRP plus $199 ttl. I think I could have done better if I had been willing to spend the time haggling.
