With a deal like that, I don't even mind drive the van all the way from MA to NJ. :o)
#63 of 692 Here is what I paid for my SL by jakevsnake Sep 23, 2003 (7:58 pm)
I just bought my Quest 2004 SL with seat package, in-cabin filter, DVD, and splash guards for $29,899 all taxes, tags inc. in Oakland at Connell Auto Center. I had secured my own financing for 5.5% with my credit union as this was the lowest I could find on my own. My payments for 60 months would have been $478 with a $5k down payment. I told them I would go with their financing if they could beat it and they went down to 4.09% with Nissan financing. The catch was getting a 6yr/100k Gold-Plus Warranty thrown in for total monthly payments of $490. I know they made out on the warranty since they sold me the car at about $800 over invoice but it was worth it considering I was about to finance at 5.5% with similar payments without an ext warranty. If I wasnt so pressed for time I would have played a harder sell for the warranty but after a long flight from Japan my wife and 2 kids were too pooped to pop. They originally were going to get me for $512 a month before I got it down to $490. Overall a pretty good deal for what I think is a great van so far after owning it for only 10 hours. I also saved a couple hundred dollars in taxes since I changed the address I registered the car in.

Extended warranties are usually cancellable, so you may want to revisit it in a month or so and see if you want to drop it.   Steve, Host
#65 of 692 Good experience buying SL in Maryland by srb6 Sep 24, 2003 (8:37 am)
We're the folks who had the difficult haggling session with the dealer in CT. I'm very happy to report we had a great experience buying the SL through the Carmax Nissan dealer in White Marsh, Maryland (went there because we have family close by). Though not a killer deal it was decent, and better than the prices we could get at our local dealers. We paid 2.7% below MSRP with just $114 dollars in dealer paper work fees. The sales people we worked with were terrific. It's a no-haggle operation so everything was friendly and relaxed. Quite different from the CT experience where we were fielding tricky dealer games at the get-go. There aren't too many no-haggle new car dealerships around, but in situations like the one we have with the Quest at the moment (difficult seller's market), we found it to be very worthwhile to buy from them, even with a bit of travel involved. Wish all car buying experiences were so pleasant!
#66 of 692 Mud Guard info by park3850 Sep 25, 2003 (12:18 pm)
According to the blue book pricing Mud Guards are required in Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, and Wisconsin. Not sure where those asking are located but this could help explain why the dealer said they all came that way. Hope this is helpful information.

You have brought up an interesting question. If I were to cancel this service contract, which I have read would be fully refundable within 60 days, or $25/10% of retail price after that, would I have the option to buy it from someone else later? I know I should be able to do better than this from somewhere else. Should I look into a Warranty Gold plan? I know this should go in the warranty section but this topic came up as a result of my price paid at this dealership. If someone else besides Steve can help please post or send me an email at Jakevsnakeaol.com I am travelling at the moment and I am slow to check email as a result but I will keep on it as best that I can. Thanks.
#69 of 692 extended warranty with nissan by iserum Sep 26, 2003 (7:19 am)
Jakevsnae, i think you should keep the warranty with nissan, it is better to keep with the manufacturer, the amount of money you save by buying it from someone else will not be significant (read fine prints with other warranties what is covered and what do you supposed to do for preventive maintanence with vehicle). On the other side your monthly payment will not reduce if you cancel warranty (that is how the contract is written usually). Obviously your payment will be finished in less than 60 months based on how much you get credit by cancelling extended warranty.
