Most dealers will charge a documentation fee that I've seen range anywhere from $49 up to $300. These are basically a way for dealers to stick you at the end after you've agreed on a price IMO. I refuse to get into a debate about doc fees with dealers - I simply tell them I want an out-the-door price that includes ALL fees. I don't particularly care what they call the different components of their pricing. The only thing that matters to me is the bottom line (before taxes). In my area taxes are paid at the DMV when you register the car - not at the dealer.

You've been a great a help loach, thank you. One last question, since I want to put my 2000 maxima in for trade what is the best way to bring this up. I checked the kbb value and I know I should be getting more selling privately but because of the hassle of time and people I'm thinking of letting it go for the value kbb have shown for a trade in. What point should the trade in discussion come up? Before asking for the out-the-door price or after? How would you go about this to make sure they don't screw you over by low balling on the trade-in valuation after making me think I got a good out-the-door price? Car buying and House buying are so aggravating!!

Generally you should not talk trade until you have agreed upon a price for the new car. The dealer will want to talk both at once in order to muddy the waters in their favor. Read "Confessions of a Car Salesman" along with as much as you can in the "Tips and Advice" section on Edmunds. It helps to know what they are going to do before they do it.

My company is a Nissan supplier, and we are offered a 2.87% discount off of the invoice price of any new Nissan. Is this a good deal, or am I better off negotiating a better price?
I'm located in the Washington DC market.

2009 Nissan Murano...Good Price?

We are looking at a 2009 2WD Murano SL w/value and premium package. We were offered $31,900 out the door, which includes tax (Approx. $1000), Tags ($60), processing fee ($499), destination ($800). My bottom line was $31, 500, so we walked away. We also plan on using the APR incentive rather than the rebate. I really liked the salesperson but I cannot say the same for the sales manager. Do you all think these are fair prices?

You walked on the deal because of $400 on a 30+k car? Interesting. If price is that important you should look at alternatives for thousands less.

One local dealer in st. louis has 44 murano's in stock -- don't know whether they deal or not but plenty of inventory. Bommarito.

Woot! Finally got one!

Finally the pain has ended. We went to look at a White 360 VP + Leather + Premium on Friday that just came off the truck; wasn't really looking at buying at that time since we were set at buying the 2010s. With the Murano shortage and everybody and their dog wanting one, I don't have anything to lose to talk to the dealer.
To make a long story short (more like <1 hour ), we bought the car for $29850. $29850 + TTL! That's way below invoice! Once I got that offer I quickly signed the papers before they find out their mistake---it wasn't a mistake after all. I combed through all the paper work and made sure there were no hidden crap. We took the 2.9 APR promo and only used the $500 labor day rebate. Good things come to those who wait---and waiting for 2 months have been too long!

I saw that article too but it didnt include an accompanying story specifically for the Murano.
