Replying to: amoviefan1 (Dec 08, 2008 2:59 pm) After reviewing my number with the Consumer Reports buying guide, Edmunds TMV, and KBB, the dealer vocabulary came to me. I simply asked what the cash discounts, the dealer selldowns, and holdbacks are. The holdbacks would be the last thing the dealer will probably give to us as a buyer. But then again, this is a BUYER's market. As for how long a car has been on the lot, just ask for the dealer print out on a particular vehicle. Once he/she says yes to the printout, then ask how long the car has been on the lot. For Infiniti, it's the "ETA". The one I am eyeing came to the lot in the end of September. The cash discounts, selldowns, and holdbacks are free info - IF YOU ASK THE DEALER. They will tell you. Remember, these items can apply on top of the invoice price. The invoice price is NOT the number that the dealer paid for the car. Hope this helps.

Replying to: redline122 (Dec 08, 2008 3:21 pm) I think it is meaningless to bring up the hold back, the amount of money they can potentially make etc in a negotiation. Dealer are in the business of making money. We never ask how much the previous home owner make when we buy a house. And we never ask how much BBY make when we buy a TV from them. So why is car dealer so special that we want to liimit how much money they can or should make? I also buy cars every 2 years or so. And I just take the approach that supply and demand will dictate my puchase price. My job is to find out the market condition of the cars that I like, pick the one that I most likely can get the best deal and negotiate the best that I can. It is really not my place to detemine or get upset if a dealer make some money. After all I decide to buy or lease at the price that we agree. I leased an 07 G35 for two years and I paid 400 above invoice. I just leased an 08 Lexus LS460 last Friday with 15K below MSRP or 6+K below invoice. It helps a great deal that I live in S.F. bay area where there are a lot of competition. But back in 2001, I really wanted a Lexus SC430 and I pay full MSRP for the car when it first come out. I don't feel sorry for the dealer if they loss money on any of my deal. I also don't get upset if they make money off of my purchase. After all that is the best deal I can get within my specific location. My job is to get the best deal that I can afford, not running delear's business. |

I am new to this site and have been doing extensive car searches. I am wondering if you guys could share your input on the deal I just received from a Chicagoland dealer. Brand new 2008 G35X with Premium and wood trim. MSRP $38,530. 39-months lease with 12,000 miles/yr. $0 down and all taxes & fees rolled into the payments for $498/month. Price factored into the lease: $34,500 Money factor: .00119 Residual: 54% Any input would be much appreciated.
