Factory to dealer incentives are exactly as they sound. It is the dealers option to pass any of the savings to the consumer. Now that said and dealers hurting they are just about all going to fall all over themselves to give the best price. It is something you can use as a negotiating tool. MSRP is suggested. Invoice is about what the dealer is paying minus any holdbacks or other incentives or volume discounts. I would take invoice and minus the 7500 and use that as your basis to start your negotiating. I wouldn't move more than $500 over that. Remember now is a great time to buy and remember you have $$ you control the outcome. Good Luck.

Thanks Drakarula, if I could get anywhere near that 37k number, it would be a pretty sweet deal i think.

Picked up an 08 m35x today. It has the tech package, trunk mats and Xenon headlights. MSRP is 50850. I paid $38,500 before TTL. It is alot of car for the money. Had a blast driving it around today. Thanks to everyone for sharing information.

Chacko,
 
Did you buy the M35 yet?
Just to clarify, the $39,995(out the door) = $44,237(invoice) - $7500(incentives) plus tt&l. will not apply to someone want to use Infiniti's 0% financing. is that right?
I am also waiting to see if the price of M35 will go lower as the year ends

Carman and the other knowledgeable folks: December Program and My Thoughts by redline122

Hello All,
I was wondering if any one had the details to the December cash/finance/lease programs? I understand that the December programs were to be announced today 12/2 - this is what the Internet Sales Manager told me last night.
 
Well, I am eyeing an 2008 M45 with the following line items:
Base - 50250
Tech/Nav Pkg - 3350
Sport Pkg - 1650
Trunk Mat - 105
Destination - 815
TOTAL - 56170
 
I've reviewed the VPP numbers and I am NOT impressed (as a D-plan business associate). Enough about VPP...
 
As for invoice negotiating this is what I was thinking (with a little help from CR New Car Pricing)
Base - 46978
Nav/Tech - 2887
Sport - 1422
Trunk Mat - 76
Destination - 815
TOTAL - 52178
 
So far these numbers haven't factored in any dealer cash incentives (in November it was $7000 for the M45)
 
Any thoughts on how aggressive I can be to get the final price down? And then consider other incentives based on how I acquire the vehicle (cash/finance/lease)?
 
I would be getting the vehicle in Southern CA.

Okay... so here's the scoops from one of the So Cal dealers:
 
M35
MSRP > 49770 (Sport and Tech)
Invoice > 45544
Cash Incentive > -7500
TOTAL > 38044
 
M45
MSRP > 56170
Invoice > 51364
C/I > -8500
TOTAL > 42864
 
As for leases, the money factors (as of 12/2) were 0.0001, but the residuals are horrendous (for a 35 it is 44%, and for the 45 it is 42%)
 
Time to consider OPM and not from Infiniti Finance... hmm... Maybe I should offer an even lower cash purchase number?...

Right, taking the incentive eliminates you from the 0% financing. I crunched the numbers and it makes sense to take the incentive off the price, even if you get a 5% interest rate on your loan.
 
I have not made a purchase yet. I'm trying to wait it out as long as I can to see if dealers get desperate to get rid of one for a better price. As it stands, those are great offers and I probably should buy one and be on my way.
 
For an update, I went to Sewell over the weekend and their final drive-out price was around $40,350 for tech package, splash guards, trunk mat, tint, and wheel locks.

Thanks for the info. I am in the same boat with you. Waiting till after Christmas to see if a better deal will appear. The best deal you got so far is from Crest ? 40k for M35+tech+ tax, title & license. If I got anything better, I will post it on here and let you know.

My M45 Offer by redline122

Well, here's the offer that the dealership is considering - the sales manager will be reviewing my offer with the general manager tomorrow. The car has been sitting on their lot since September, where as they are bringing in profits on the G35 0.9% deals day in and day out.
 
M45
MSRP: 56170 (sport, tech/nav)
Invoice: 51364
C/I: -8500
Dealer's Cash Price Offer: 42864
My Cash Price Offer: 40626 + t.t.l.
 
The sales manager informed me that they would offer the following items at their cost if the deal goes through:
3 year service package (that covers oil changes and tire rotations every 5k) for $240
Lojack for $599
 
He also has a friend/contact that could tint the car up for about $100 - he didn't want to offer me the dealer's tint cost of $270.
 
Let's see how this flies.

Lately, I started to consider possibly purchasing a slightly used M45X. After some research, I was able to find several 2008 M45X with Nav with less than 10K on the odometer (some as little as 1.5K) for around $40K. Do these deals seem a little too good to be true? Or, is the current economy having that much of an effect on prices. I mean these are $57K cars that are less than 1 year old.
 
For those of you that might current car market better than I, what should I expect to pay for a 2008 M45X (with Nav) that has less than 10K. How about a 2008 M35X (with Nav) with less than 10K. Does anyone know if you have to pay the gas guzzler tax on a used vehicle?
