Infiniti of Manhattan is claiming they're a factory direct dealer, and as such, can offer better prices than anyone else. of course this pricing cannot be promoted or conveyed via email or phone (b/c of all the complaints from competitive dealers). never heard of such a thing. any truth in this? or just a scam to get me in the showroom?

Like those "we will beat any price by $500" or whatever claims. When you try to collect there is always some way they will weasel out of the deal. Better to just play your best deals against each other and then only visit one dealer once you have the price you want. Dennis |

I'm glad you're happy with the deal. Not only did you pay $250 less up front, you also kept your payments under $400. NICE! Looking forward to the pics! Happy motoring!! G

Replying to: tmd820 (Jul 04, 2008 4:09 am) I don't know the exact spread between the MSRP and dealer invoice price of this car off of the top of my head, but you can look it up by visiting the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum |

I live in Central NJ. I am replacing my M35x with a G35x when the former's lease ends in August. I have had trouble getting any real numbers from local dealers. Circle for example will give me only monthly prices for a G35x with nav, premium, wood. $496 per month, 39 months/12000. Doc fee 259. $1792 due at signing. Following the advice from this forum , I am trying get selling price and lease factor but they won't give me that info. I guess I was too honest and mentioned I would cross-shop at ray catena. I have gotten more real numbers from Ray Catena but they wanted to shift me to the sports package and a "custom" wood package. (the sports package doesn't have wood) I will visit ray catena in person but they have been reluctant to give numbers out over email or phone also for the options I want. I get the sense that the smaller players are not giving out numbers for fear of the bigger dealers getting the customer based on price. At this rate, they may lose me just because they are irritating me. The sales guy even sounded angry because I was asking for this information! Isn't shopping multiple dealers the only real way to get a decent price?! Is this happening to other people? |

Replying to: ewl88 (Jul 24, 2008 4:23 pm) Tell them what you want - model, options, colors - and your time frame to get the car - the sooner the better for deal - if you say "this week" rather than "next month" you will get more attention. Just be prepared to get the car in this time frame for the right offer. Don't mention leasing of payments. Tell each dealer you want their bottom line price for the car, destination, and any dealer doc or prep fees. Also ask if their cars have any dealer installed options on them. Once you have the best price and it is a good price, then you can worry about the leasing end of the deal. You make sure they are charging you the buy rate on the bank fee ($595) and the lease MF (poster here each month) and then you are pretty much good to go. You show up, inspect and test drive the car, then sign the paperwork which should match to the penny what you figured for yourself. As soon as you mention the words lease or payment almost no salesperson is going to revert to price discussions. So keep that to yourself until you have a nice price. Dennis |
