#87 of 412 Re: Nissan Versa: Prices Paid & Buying Experience [KarenS] by hevydevyhead Aug 27, 2006 (7:09 pm)
Replying to: KarenS (Jul 14, 2006 8:00 am) My wife and I just purchased a Magnetic Gray Versa SL from Carolina Nissan in Burlington NC. Paid 100$ below MSRP and it even came with a full tank of gas (really full, I pumped it myself).   We love the car and the staff at the dealership was great. I'd suggest the car and the dealership to anyone. A great experience!! Replies to this message: bendupre (Aug 28, 2006 5:54 am)

#89 of 412 Sunroof? by jlemon Aug 28, 2006 (10:56 am)
Does anyone have a picture of a Versa sunroof? My dealer said that models with sunroofs are not available until Jan/Feb, so I ordered a Versa without a sunroof, planning to put in an aftermarket roof. But now I'm wondering if the factory installed roof is an internal sliding model or a popup/slide type.   Also, has anyone installed an aftermarket sunroof in the Versa, and how difficult is that to do?
#90 of 412 MSRP and final cost by flightnurse Aug 28, 2006 (7:48 pm)
MSRP (manufacturer's) suggested retail price is that suggested price for the car, doesn't mean you have to pay for it. Here in PHX when the FIT's came to market showcare Honda was asking 3K in MAP or (Market Adjustment price) for them, yes 3K profit over and above the build in profit that MSRP gives them. I saw the FIT on friday, and on Sunday got a call telling me that the Fits are on sale up to 3K off.. I laughed, and THIS was from a 'sales mamager.' I guess what I'm getting at is, you pay what you feel is fair, granted dealers make money is lots of different ways, whether its in the Fianceing, or add ons they put on the car.   My rule is, if you have a 'gut' feeling something isn't right, then something isn't right, LEAVE...   Tony

Replying to: oregone (Jul 27, 2006 8:38 am) Wanted to way in on my experience. Just bought the 2007 Versa SL, CVT transmission, with convenience package and I am thrilled to death with it. Over last several days, I test drove 11 cars from several different dealers and makers. (I actually really dug the Mazda3, but I didn't like the handling much on some turns and how it handled bumps, and the sales guy I dealt with was rather jerkish. So that was a real turnoff). Saw a review of the Versa on Edmunds and thought, hey, I like this. Kind of funky car. So I drove it yesterday, then wanted to mull it over a bit, do some price comparisons, etc. Went back today and bought it. I ended up with the black exterior, beige interior, spash guards, bluetooth, leather steering column with the mounted controls, remote keyles entry, alloy wheels - the full convenience package. Was quoted original price of $16,715 (minus tax, title, tags). I got the car for $16,415, plus $1,000 cash down and $1300 on a trade-in (pleasant surprise, since bluebook and others rated my car as worth maybe $950 on trade in; my trade-in was a 95 Neon Highline with 95k miles on it). So I paid $14,115 (before tax, title, tags). Wanted a sunroof, but didn't stress over it since I can get it much cheaper anyway later in aftermarket. (Same with stereo & speakers. I always prefer to go with my own stereo shops for audio systems.) I had a great sales guy and overall, it was a pleasant experience. No pressure (since I said up front that I'm pretty flexible and if they couldn't get me the car at a price I wanted, well, there were certainly hundreds of other car makers and dealerships I'd be happy to give my money to ). Mine also came with full tank of gas. So once I fill up again, will be interesting to see what the true mileage city/highway is. I also opted for a two-year lease, something I've never done. But hey, there's a first time for everything But overall, I'm pretty happy. I bought from a dealership in Maryland (Glen Burnie). Would happily recommend them to anyone in the area looking at the Versa.
#92 of 412 Nissa versa SL CVT Auto Transmission buying experience by nag2 Aug 29, 2006 (7:18 am)
I bought versa SL with CVT Auto Transmission for 16,000 on the road (including tax, title and tags). Actually I got $500 rebate for graduate student. I think this is below invoice price. Actual sticker price on the car is 16,205. I sent online quotations for couple of dealers. I bought it form the least quoted dealer. This dealership is in Baltimore Maryland. Some dealers are selling this vehicle for less than $500 on MSRP, My suggestion is don’t buy this vehicle for MSRP. First tank of gas I got 364 miles (31.6/Galon).I am getting good mileage.
#93 of 412 Versa S buying experience -- Vallejo Nissan, CA by bpechlaner Aug 29, 2006 (11:16 pm)
Just came home with a brand new Versa (onyx blue w/tan)from Vallejo Nissan in the San Francisco Bay Area.   They had a special on 2 Versa's this weekend for $12,995 -- yes, that's with the floor mats AND the power package -- a great, great price and much better than the other quotes I received.   So I called them and they had the color I wanted so I drove there on Monday to get it...but was turned away by the floor manager because the onyx blue one was not part of the ad. Mistakes can happen...but of course I was quite disappointed that I had been misinformed and wrote an email to the dealership explaining my experience. Didn't really expect a response -- but my wife got a call and I got an email back this afternoon from the owner / general manager (who was not in the store when I was there for my futile purchase attempt) telling us that they "...have built their dealership on customer satisfaction and this was a huge breakdown in their efforts..." and that he would honor the price! Drove back up there tonight and got to pick up the car with a full tank of gas and the first 2 services for free!   I have to say that I have never been so impressed with a car dealership before even when I thought that I had gotten a good deal. Outstanding price, outstanding service and absolutely no pressure. Great job!   Bernie   Love my Versa, BTW!

Replying to: bpechlaner (Aug 29, 2006 11:16 pm) You got a GREAT deal because you caught the dealer in one of those advertising scams they love to use. Unfortunately for them, it's hard to pull when they only have 2 Versa's on the lot. I think that very few people will be able to beat your price.   One of the current advertising tricks in New England is to say that a dealer has say 20 2006 Honda Civics for $9,995. IF you read the fine print at the bottom of the ad it may say that some of the cars are not new, some were loaners or employee cars and therefore may have several thousand miles on them.   Of course the most common trick is to offer a ridiculous price on a popular car, then below the ad, put just one STK#, meaning there is only one car at that price. No matter what time you get there, that car will have been sold.   Congratulations - you got a great deal just because you took the time to send an email. Chaulk one up for the consumer.

Replying to: bpechlaner (Aug 29, 2006 11:16 pm) Did that price include the $605 freight charge?
#96 of 412 Re: Versa S buying experience -- Vallejo Nissan, CA by bpechlaner Aug 30, 2006 (9:16 am)
sngwrtr: No scam in this case. Fact is that they only had 2 when they ran the ad....the one that I bought came in after the fact! So I really don't feel like it was a "bait and switch"...they really don't need to honor a weekend ad on a Monday concerning a different car...and fact is that most dealerships would have never honored something like this... I am very pleased!   rcinmd: yes, including the destination charge! Replies to this message: rcinmd (Aug 30, 2006 11:27 am)
