The dealers make big money in the service department and in disposing of used car trade-ins, either by auction or on their own lots. The real value of a used car is somewhat mysterious ... there are guidelines but no solid data upon which to base a price. When I bought my wife's GX470 they gave me a fair $7K trade-in on her ten year old Grand Cherokee w/ 60K miles (after discounting the Lexus). They gave it a bath and put it on their lot for $12,500 and it sold within a few days, obviously not for $12.5K but certainly a whole lot more than the $7K they had in it. $10K? That would be a 42% return in a few days. Nice work if you can get it! Bart

Feb 1 the new prices went into effect. On cars produced (or perhaps delivered to the dealer) before that data have the old prices. It is up to $250 per car higher, so the average non-full-loaded example may have gone up less than $200.

Hi guys, i just got this offer from my local dealership. I dont know if it is good or not, any advice would be highly appreciated.
 
Okay, The MSRP for 2008 G37,6MT, Black/Graphite, premium package, navigation package and illuminated kick plates is $42,575. The offer we can give you is $39,130.19 for a savings of $3444.81.
I based $5,000 down on both lease and finance:
$5,000 down, lease at 42 months, 15k miles per year=$392.00 plus tax per month(I'm thinking Seattle is 9.1%=$426.00
$5,000 down, finance 2.9% at 60 months, $682.00 per month. Your bank might be able to offer you a really low interest rate at 72 or 84 months if you choose to lower your payment and extend your term.
if you come down here, I'll give you your choice of all-weather Infiniti floor mats ($100.00 value)or a coupon book with 2 free oil changes and discounts off detail services, parts, etc..
 
is this a good deal? ok deal? bad deal? THANKS GUYS
 
And o yeah, should i opt for the tech package (what should i expect from that? Do i really need it?)

Holy cow...I can't speak to the deal on the G37 - let the guys who know the G37 numbers answer that - but in no way should you put down $5K on a lease! If you lease, roll everything in and take that down payment money to establish a lease payment fund. Cash is king! Don't part with it upfront on a lease.

I just bought a platinum graphite G35x w/premium, tire wheel pkg, nav and splash guards. Got it for $37,400 w/remote starter included in price. After rebate it came to $36,900. Also got the 2.9% for 60 months. So I got it for $250 above invoice. I wanted the car. I could of haggled over a $200 more dollars. I'm glad I got it. Way more fun to drive than my 2004 4runner limited V6.

Too much over invoice by silica1

I'm finally making the move to purchase a G35 Journey with the Premium package (decided not to pay for the nav package). I'm getting quotes from different dealers but so far they are high. I'm getting quotes of $1500 - $1800 above invoice (including their doc fees) (before the $500 rebate). The $1500 price was from a sales manager from a different town and the $1800 is from the internet sales department of another out of town dealer. They are more than $1000 over what I would like to pay. I'm still waiting for my local dealer to get back to me. They don't appear to be as hungry for a sale as I thought.
 
Any suggestions for motivating the dealers to lower prices? The out of town sales manager said he wouldn't make money if he sold cars at or below invoice. I bawked, but he went on about his 'costs'. I sent an offer price (below invoice with rebate) to the internet sales dealer first, but it didn't help.
 
Would I be better off using a buying program such as AAA or Costco? I'm not a Costco member but could change that easily if I knew it was worthwhile. The Costco call center would only say the savings would be between MSRP and invoice (not useful). Anybody know what to expect for savings if using Costco? I'm in NC. Costco does have a dealer in Greensboro in their program.

Give them your price. Say this is what i'll pay. If you agree I'll buy it right now. That usually will light a little fire under their butts.
 
One of my friends sells cars. He said salesmen are trying to get more for the cars, since then don't sell as many as they were(bad economy). Did you try going to one of the larger dealers. They usually are the ones who want to get rid of inventory faster.

Hi, the offer I have for a G35X with Prem, Nav, Wood, Mats, Net is $37,060 and I am yet to bring up the $500 rebate discussion which would bring it downt o $36,560. Thoughts?
 
Do Infiniti dealers charge bogus fees after agreement on the sales price? What should I be looking for?
