Nissan Quest Prices Paid and Buying Experience

Replying to: kravon (Aug 15, 2008 10:44 am)

May I correct the previous comment. Most base model Quests do MSRP for 26-27k
 
I too would like to correct the next to previous comment. I've looked up a base model Quest (that means no additional options or dealer add-ons) for $23,275. That includes the destination charge.
 
No way a base model Quest goes for $26 or $27k.
I agree they are being heavily discounted, but if it is from 26-27k then the cars are heavily loaded with dealer add-ons. i.e pinstripping, rustproofing, fabric protection, lifetime wax job...etc.

I totally agree. Most dealers here in Florida charge this rip off fee and claim they CAN'T remove it, blah-blah. That amount is typical too, just under $600.

Well, I just bought the Quest tonight. After receiving numerous quotes of $15600 (which turned out to be for a base); then $16200 which turned out to be for the S without drivers package.
 
I settled on the S with drivers pkg, seat pkg, flaps and mats for $17100 + $599 dealer fee + TTT (taxes 7%). I passed two other dealers before signing. The other dealers were offered the chance to beat it, but could not or would not.
 
The MSRP stuck on the window of the car (with the dealer added stuff) was $30,095.
 
My OTD price was $19,165,75. I also received $600 in gas cards.
 
It has a build date of June 2008. I was the first one (and only one) to test drive it, it still was wrapped up inside and out and now has the 8 miles I put on it. It is the pearl white color.
 
Earlier in the morning, I spent 3 hours in the Honda dealership trying to get a deal on an Odyssey which I currently drive. It was emotionally draining and I just could not make myself excited to pay over $10000 more for another Odyssey. I left and received several calls from the Honda dealer while I was signing on the Quest!
 
Overall, I had a great experience and my dealer has 3 more Quest's in stock. I recommend them... I am in SW Florida.

I just purchased a Quest 3 weeks ago. The MSRP was $26,460 w/destination, seat package, cargo cover, mirror w/ homelink, mats and splashguards - all of which are common items on most base models
 
Uhhh, no... those items (seat package, mirror with homelink, mats and splash guards) are called options. They are extra. A base model includes all the standard features... the ones that come on all base models.
 
What you've purchased is a base model with manufacturer installed "optional equipment".
 
But, you are correct in that MSRP is closer to $26k. I was uhhh.... looking at invoice price instead of MSRP.
