We are considering purchasing a 2004 SL model with navigation, DVD and SL upgrade package within a month. We live in Edison, New Jersey. Are there any recent Quest buyers from this area who can provide how much under invoice (over invoice is out of the question ) they paid for their 2004 Quest?

In Jan bought the '04 SL w/DVD and Upgraded SL package (cloth) from Freehold Nissan. We paid Invoice but they got me out of an Infiniti QX4 lease with 13 payments left on the lease. I paid nothing on the lease ($23,500) plus got to save $1,200 on sales tax by trading in the lease.
 
I would say they worked real well - they have also been right behind me in getting all my problems fixed, including arranging a loaner van for all the time we were in shop. I did not have the extended warranty

Today we are going to purchase an SL Quest with Leather/seatpackage/DVD/skyview/floor matts/micro-filter/mudflaps/. Complete walk-away price (true, tax/title/tags/reg - everything) is $30,896 (this is with the $500 rebate and 1.9% financing now offered on the SL models).
 
Thoughts? Haven't signed on the dotted line yet, but the dealer gave us this price out the door when others were saying $30,100 + tax/title/tags. His is inital price was $750 below invoice.
 
This is Herb Gordon Nissan in Maryland.

When I do a TMV calculation for my zip code, I get $29,076, including a $1,000 consumer cash incentive. That's before tax or doc fees.
 
I'm assuming that your sales tax is 5% or around $1,450, making my number around $30,626 with a $100 doc fee. ~$31,100 with just a $500 rebate (that figure must be related to your low financing rate).
 
So I'd say you are doing a little better than the TMV price, but there's probably a bit more room to wiggle if you want to be a grinder.
 
Usual disclaimers about my math - you can do it yourself here.

Thanks. The TMV for my zip is coming out at $30,989 (Before the incentives). Apparently, the new incentive is either $1000 or $500 & 2% (that's what the web says too) for the SL. Opting for the $500, that gives us $30,489 + about $1550 for tax/processing and we are up to $31,549. I think I'm done haggling - although we are going to haggle on the warranty - any thoughts on good prices for Gold Plus or Silver Plus? Or whether we should skip it and go with Warranty Direct or someone else?
 
Thanks.

I personally don't believe in extended warranties and I'm at 96,000 miles on my '99 Quest with no major repairs. But I don't have a DVD or power doors or other expensive things that can break and cost $1,000 to get fixed.
 
So if it helps you sleep better, go for it - my other bias is that the Nissan extended warranty is probably going to always be honored, while a third party one may not be if the company or their underwriter goes broke. Warranty Gold did this a year or so ago and filed bankruptcy, leaving a lot of people holding worthless pieces of paper that they paid lots of money for.
 
Read the fine print on the one you choose because the companies are expert on wiggling out of payment for one reason or another.
 
There is also some debate about the best time to buy - you may get a better price by tying the purchase to the van purchase. Or you may do better waiting and getting it online. You'll have to check with Nissan to see how long you have to purchase one - it may be one year or as long as three years.
 
Good luck!

Just going to see Nissan today by andrea

Been reading this forum and wondering if a) the 2005's are out yet, b) are there any significant changes from 04, and c) what can I expect to pay over/under invoice for an 05 if it's available, or is that fairly dumb if I can get an 04 cheaper?
 
We have been dabbling getting a new car for about a month and have just understood that we really need a minivan. Looking at Quest and the Honda Odessesy, but the 05 Od'y isn't due yet in Chicago area until October and then I suppose they'll be selling for $$. Won't the 05 Quest be a better deal?
 
Any help will be appreciated!
