We're interested in your experience and suggestions regarding purchasing a Quest 2004 in Greater Boston. We live in the MetroWest area. We'll probably end up with the S series.

for silver sl with dvd,upgrade pkg., leather, filter, running boards, and cargo cover I paid 28,260. This was exactly -4000 off mrsp. Plus with the 1.9 apr I felt this was a good deal. Toyota vans are nice but I like the looks of the quest better and would have paid 32,000 for a comparable sienna. Rumor has it that the rouge leather is no longer available nissan has bought back all from dealers because of low sales.

I bought the SL w/upgrade package and a few extra features at Clay Nissan in Dedham. It was the BEST experience ever. If you like, send me an email and I'll give you the salesman name & number.

We reluctantly need to get a mini van. I currently have a Pathfinder. I love it and have been impressed by what I have seen of Nissan and the Quest. Any pricing suggestions would be appreciated.

I bought a 2004 Quest SL with seat package, cargo cover, microfilter, floor mats and splashguards for $24915. I believe this is ~$600 below invoice, so I know I got a good price. What I want to find out is if they made their money on the Warranty. I paid $995 for Gold Preferred 72 months / 75,000 miles with a $50 deductible.
 
Most of the previous messages I saw on this were prices for 7 yrs / 100,000.
 
How did I do price wise?
 
The dealership also told me I had to buy it when I took delivery of the car. Is that true?
 
I know I can cancel but I'm not sure I want to. Do you know if at this point I have any leverage to go back to the dealer to renegotiate the price, years, or deductible?

Warranties by plashenick

The price you paid is similar to what I have heard quoted, but per Nissan you have until the factory warranty runs out (36 mos) in which to but an extended warranty. Dealers will offer a break in price ($100 or so) if bought with the car.
 
If memory serves me correctly you have at least 12 mos to but the extended warranty per NY state. Just remember that warranties are not all they are cracked up to be. You do have a 36 mos. warranty, also the drive train is 60 mos/60K. In NY the first 18,000 mile and 2 years must be covered for all items at no cost (even non-covered items). So you bought a coverage for the 4th and 5th year. The first repair has a $50 ded. so in essence if you have something go wrong in the 4th/5th/6th year it costs $1045 to fix it. If you have two problem it would cost $547.50 You can see where this leads.
 
When warranties were $600 for 6 years I swore by them. At this price plus the sales tax you paid on the $995 (about $80) sounds like it is a better gamble to pay for the repair down the road rather then up front.
 
SO what is a warranty really worth...? Don't forget you can get the Nissan warranty from ANY Nissan dealer.
 
One additional caveat: I had a 91 Capri XR2 convertible. In the first 5 years (6 year warranty / extended service contract) I had them replace the roof three times - although one was a recall). The cost of a roof is $1,500 My out of pocket was $150 for the last time. So I would say that I was way ahead of my $700 cost. I only win by losing, but I did win. Where I lost was the fan control switch would blow every 6-12 mos. Costs about $75-90 to fix, with a deductible of of $100 I never made out. Dealers offer things like "If you never use it we will give you back the full cost."
 
Think about that, they hope you use it for a $400 repair. Or better yet you hold off each time using it hoping for the $1000 return. So who really wins.
 
There are some great discussion areas on warranties, but most tend to say, "save your money now"

Hi
My husband and i are interested in the Quest. We've haggled over price for sometime now and even considering a Sienna. Well, we've been quoted for a '04 Quest SE with basically everything except DVD and Nav. was $31970 before taxes and fee. For an SL w/leather, dvd, heated seats, etc. the price quoted was $29370 before tax and fee. Are these good prices? Or should we bagin for less?
thanks!!
