yeah, like i was saying, that is a 2007 you are seeing. 2008 models only have the trim type on the SL, the S does not, nor does just the 2.0.

Not quite as happy as the rest of you are by jewels8

I am not as happy with my new buying experience with the Nissan Sentra. Bought the car in June 08, have taken car back to the dealer 5 times for a number of reasons: Window rubber molding in rear came loose, 1st week of ownership; misleading sticker which stated remote trunk release with open trunk pic on remote, not "included" in my model; was hesitating on starting, had to have a major part changed; speaker/amp system goes in and out. Actually had service mgr ride with me, said it was the song (never taking responsibility due to the fact that car is brand new, in fact, 1st time they told me it was my imagination!!) when I know it does it happens constantly on many, many songs and continues to do so. I also own a 06 Honda Civic, never had a problem with audio and drove it for 2 yrs before buying this one so I could tell the difference. Took it to a car audio shop, said that the system they put in the Sentras is cheap, so now I will have to spend $500 to upgrade. Nissan not addressing any of my concerns, only the part that had to be changed since the car had less than 1500 on it and they had no choice due to warranty. So needless to say, I wished I had chosen a different vehicle, and this has ruined my new car buying experience. Happy for those of you who are not experiencing what I am.

Thanks, I guess that's why no responses received. I just like to let people know the real story. Don't worry, I will keep on top of all the issues/repairs and go straight to Nissan, this car will be under warranty for a while, it only has 2200 miles on it. I have a Honda Civic that I drive as well, putting low miles on Sentra just in case I decide to sell earlier instead of later or can get a buy back (ha, ha!). Actually, I really do like appearance of the car, both outside & inside, and the way it drives, I had a Sentra years ago. No problems with that one, or my 06 Civic. Dealer fixed all except audio, I was told to try another dealership for that. I may just upgrade on my own since I was told system is not very good (from 2 car audio sound stores), even though I have never had to do this on any vehicle. I will keep you updated. BTW, where should I have posted this msg?

Price compare with Costco or AAA by love_luv

I recently bought 2008 Nissan Sentra 2008 2.0S OTD for 16500 in NJ.
 
I was wondering if I was able to save some more via AAA member price or Costco Member price?
 
Thanks.

Why ask after you bought the car? It's yours now so don't worry about how much, if any, you left on the table. Just enjoy your car...it's a done deal.

I am know I have paid for it and can't turn the tables around. I am asking because I am curious. Its now going to bother me, but next time I will be more careful and consider all the other option I have.
 
As I said my OTD is 16500 for 2008 Nisaan Sentra 2.0S.
 
Will appreciate if some one can answer.
 
Thanks

i'm not sure if any company price will beat effective haggling and internet pricing and matching between various dealerships. look through some old posts and see what others, such as myself, have paid, and how we went about getting those prices. don't let anything bother you that you no longer have control over, i'm sure you did just fine. what options did you get, spash guards and body-color side moldings? anything else? what is your tax %? any other fees that you paid? can you provide a complete price breakdown for us? i think that will give everyone a better idea of what kind of value you got. without that info, it is really tough to provide a quality comparison.
