#442 of 601 2004 Nissan Quest "S" Model - 13,500/mi - $18,500.00 by sh86894 Jun 20, 2005 (9:55 pm)
Well,   Just a few short years ago I distinctly remember saying "I WILL NEVER BUY A MINIVAN". Now that we have four kids my wife and I finally caved and went looking. We loved the new Nissan Quests because of its looks inside and out (including the wacky instrument panel) and because of how powerful it was.   So we bought ours just two weeks ago. Of course I bought mine used so hopefully I don't get dirty looks but we are extremely happy with it. They only complaint that we had was that for whatever reason Nissan chose to put horrible OEM tires on the vehicle. We just bought new tires tonight (alternate size of course) so even that little problem is solved.   -SKH Replies to this message: tamu2002 (Jun 21, 2005 7:30 am) sh86894 (Jun 21, 2005 8:30 am) LDegrelle (Jun 22, 2005 11:49 am)
#443 of 601 congrats by tamu2002 Jun 21, 2005 (7:30 am)
Replying to: sh86894 (Jun 20, 2005 9:55 pm) That's a very good price for a S model. We paid $21,750 for our new 05 S. I would've definitely considered a used one at that price. Does yours have power door, hatch, rear window and parking sonar? Replies to this message: sh86894 (Jun 21, 2005 8:30 am) LDegrelle (Jun 22, 2005 11:49 am)

Replying to: tamu2002 (Jun 21, 2005 7:30 am) Tamu,   Thanks... and no, it doesn't have power doors/hatch or parking sonar... just the standard "S" options. I would have paid extra for those options but I was buying privately and the used inventory from private sellers within 100 miles was exactly two [2]!   So I bought the one with the lowest miles. I figured that if I bought a car with only 13.5K on it there wasn't too much that could have gone wrong.   After getting it home I found all of the guys maintenance receipts in the glovebox it looks like there were about a dozen recall items that he had fixed (all the stuff listed on the problems forum). So in the end I saved some money and some hassle.   We've already taken it on a 2000 mile road trip and it did great. I just set the cruise and sailed down the freeway.   -SKH Replies to this message: LDegrelle (Jun 22, 2005 11:49 am)

Replying to: sh86894 (Jun 21, 2005 8:30 am) Remember, it's a 2004, so the options weren't standard (or even available). But nice price on the van regardless!
#446 of 601 Re: 2007 Quest instrument panel redesigned [str] by famof3kids Jun 22, 2005 (3:43 pm)
Replying to: str (Jun 11, 2005 8:46 pm) We too wondered about the center instrument panel, but, we love it. The best advantage is most realized at night. The panel lights aren't under your eyes and allow a clearer view with no glares. Automotive News had a picture a few weeks ago of a new seating system, that just happened to be in a Quest. Was a totally flat floor without removing seats. I suspect Nissan will not change the exterior, but, will 'standardize' the dash layout as they believe that's why sales haven't hit their goal.   Mark 2004 Quest SE
#447 of 601 Extended Warranty by heehaw Jun 29, 2005 (2:34 pm)
I am in the process of finalizing a New Nissan Quest 3.5S for about 21.5K. I might be interested in the extended warranty (and I am sure that the dealer will push). What warranty packages are generally available, what is the cost and how much lower can we expect to negotiate with the dealer? Any help/inputs will be greatly appreciated.   thanks

Replying to: woolyb (Jun 03, 2005 7:02 am) Woolyb, I just bought a Jade Quest SE from Advantage Nissan in Bremerton at $3000 below invoice. Pretty much a stock SE with sat radio and tow pkg. We wanted the jade. Dealership very easy to work with, the MOST pleasant vehicle purchase I have done. Current rebates are $2500 for the SL and SE. Paid 32K out the door, bought the NW protection package which added about $700.00 to the cost. Replies to this message: tamu2002 (Jul 14, 2005 1:05 pm)

Replying to: warrant_ero (Jul 12, 2005 11:54 pm) Wow, you really did it! Congrats! It was a long drive from Idaho but it was apparantly worth it. The folks at Advantage are indeed nice to work with. Enjoy your new van!
#450 of 601 Bought Our Quest, Waddya think? by gixxerjim Jul 26, 2005 (10:17 am)
My wife and I were shopping for a used van to replace our midsize SUV since we have 2 kids under 4 yrs and a baby on the way. She left a good paying professional position to be a stay at home mom about a year ago, so money is a little tight. We were looking to spend around $16k-$18k. The best prospect for us was a 2002 Oddysey EXL for $19k with 50k miles.   Then I did some more research on the Quest since we love our Maxima. Originally the quality issues scared me off, but when I dug into the details it seemed the new plant opening caused some problems that had since been resolved. Then we drove the Quest and for $4k more got the LS with just a cabin filter, seat package, floor mats, mudflaps and a cargo cover for $23k after rebate. We are really excited about this purchase, I can't believe how well it drove and handled. The reviews I had read were inaccurate in many respects. At this point I think Nissan has hit a home run. If anyone has any tips on accessories or warranty issues, etc please let us know...
#451 of 601 Quest S by psm0110 Aug 11, 2005 (3:49 am)
Paid $23,900, before rebates, including destination. Some dealers said this was $300 under invoice, our dealer showed it to be only $100 -- probably could have done better; but the price was right for me. Included seat package, mats, cargo cover, splash guards, and microfilter. Opted for the $500 cash and 2% financing ($!% Greenspan!). Dealer tried the same old tired routines, but I just stopped them midstream and firmly said no. Overall a decent experience. Why does it always take two hours to buy a car?
