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?

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 Now?

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.

I just wanted to comment on the speaker/amp going in and out. I noticed that when I try to listen to music with the volume up iwithin the last three or four digits of the loudest setting it will "clip" causing the music to sound much softer for a while. I believe this is Nissan's attempt to not overdrive the somewhat cheap speakers in the car. It makes me wish I had gotten the better stereo. The stereo is the only option I didn't get in my 08 SE-R.
I have the seat issue were it feels like it's moving a little when I stress it when the car turns and such; sorta like it might be missing a grommet or one of the connections isn't tight enough. I only weight 160lbs so it isn't like that should be too much for it to handle. I read this is a common problem.
I can now smell antifreeze every time I get out of the car. I hope its just a hose or fitting and not the radiator or water pump. I will be taking it in for them to have a look shortly.
Despite these small things I do love this car. The SE-R version has quite a bit more pep and I still get good mileage. It is the perfect mix of sport and practicality.
