Replying to: wizzroom (Feb 29, 2008 12:53 pm) Then, is this one OK? Should I continue haggling? Seems dealers are not enthusiastic about it.

Replying to: antebellon (Mar 01, 2008 7:17 am) The fact that dealers aren't enthusiastic about haggling is nonremarkable. About $2000 off a 16500 versa is a pretty good deal. --jjf

Replying to: jfritsch (Mar 01, 2008 12:57 pm) shouldn't OTD price include everything including tax, misc fee?

Replying to: antebellon (Mar 01, 2008 1:05 pm) I spec'd out my Versa and told the dealer my OTD price. They then adjusted the numbers so that car + extras I wanted (ABS, rear spoiler, mats, etc.) + tax + destination + whatever else, came out to be my OTD price exactly.

Replying to: daniknight (Mar 01, 2008 4:25 pm) If you say "I paid $16300 OTD and that includes the local sales tax of $876 and state registration fee of $133," that would let others know how much of your posted OTD price is going towards taxes and government (not dealer) fees. Everyone else could then subtract your local fees and calculate what OTD would be in their own area. There seems to be two types of posts. One post where the person isolates the sales price of the car without mentioning they also paid the dealer $650 for "doc fee" or didn't include the destination charge. The second type of post is where people only post "OTD" price that has their local sales tax jumbled in. Both are not clear or non-applicable to people not in the same county/state. Even after all that, when a trade-in was involved and not disclosed in the post, that makes the whole deal a bad comparison to anyone else's post because of how much the trade-in may have influenced the whole thing. |

I just bought a white (beige interior) Versa S Auto Hatchback in February. I used edmunds and the internet to solicit bids from various dealers, but I ended up buying from the first dealer I visited in real life. Nissan's website makes it easy to search dealer inventories so you can contact the internet sales manager and ask about specific cars on the lot (though the posted inventories can be a little out-of-date). The deal I agreed to was not the best offer I eventually received, and in fact, I probably could have gotten $200 or more off the deal I did agreed to. The car was swapped from another dealership. I eventually got much lower quotes from other dealers for cars on their lots, but I had already agreed to buy this car, and the dealership I did business with responded very quickly, they were totally upfront, they got the exact car I wanted quickly, and they treated me very well. They made a mistake in their offer, but they ate it. (Of course, I let it drop that I had gotten lower quotes, so they were eager to sell me the car quickly.) 2008 Nissan Versa Auto Hatchback Invoice $12,981 (edmunds is wrong here). Options: Splash guards Floor/trunk mats Power Package Aluminum Kickplates ABS Cruise MSRP $15,620 (including destination) Invoice $14,905 My price $15,085.74 (should have been $15,105 - their mistake) Doc prep $55 Total sale $15,140.74 Sales tax $1173.41 (7.75%) State fees $169.75 Total $16,483.90 Rebate ($750) Cash from me: $15,733.90 <-this was my OTD quote. The Versa seems to be a good value. With 1000 miles, no problems so far. |

| I purchased a 2007 SL Sedan with 6M last May with ABS, Convenience Package, Moonroof We have 15K on it and love it! I was on the Nissan website looking to see what may have changed for 2008 and it looks like the 6 speed is not even an option on the SL sedan. Anyone know why? | |

I'll give the details of a purchase today, in case this helps anyone in their negotiations. Purchased in Western PA a 2008 'S' Automatic Hatchback, Magnetic Gray w/Charcoal interior. Vehicle has MSRP of 15,490 including the options of Power Package, Cruise Control, ABS Package, 5 piece mat set, splash guards, and destination. Price was 14899, less 750 cash back rebate to the dealer = 14,149.00 Sales tax was 990.43, Doc fee 55, DMV 73+ Total cash due to drive off, was 15,267.93 Looked seriously at Honda Fit, and Toyota Scion XD....Versa won out due to value (at least my perceived value). Others somewhat considered Matrix, Vibe, Yaris |

Anyone ever have any experience buying new cars from Carmax? Since this supposed to be a "no-haggle" price, why would I buy from a dealer? Pros - Cons appreciated. (I live in Central Maryland).
