Tenderfoot, where did you make this purchase?

Prestigious Motors 840 Old Country rd. Riverhead NY,
 
They had a large inventory of SX4's but only one in the new Azure gray. I don't like the car in this new color. To me it looks like a giant rat. I went for the silver touring II w/auto (18777 otd). I hope this was a good deal.

> Price for 2008 SX4 Touring II AWD:
> MSRP was 18,595
> Dealer Inv was 17,911
 
Did you get the invoice price from the dealer? Neither Edmunds nor KBB has the invoice pricing for the 2008 SX4 Crossover yet.
 
> Bought a 2008 SX4 w/ Touring II Pkg AWD. I have no idea why > they call it the II as there never was a Touring I.
 
I looked at the SX4 Sport sedan, and it looks like it has an option called just "Touring," so maybe the "Touring II" on the SX4 Crossover is the second after the "Touring I" on the SX4 Sport sedan.

I never mentioned "invoice price" and neither did the dealer. I went in with a print-out of some one elses deal of $17,000 + tax and licence and I indicated that I was looking for this same price, which I finally got. Everyone gets free oil changes from this dealer but not me at this price. But I think I did good at $18,733 otd for the silver touring II auto. The car is awesome. Better than I could imagine. A real bargain.

I was asking "tenderfoot" (the quotes are from his/her post), since tenderfoot mentioned a specific invoice price, and I was wondering where he/she got it.

Hey this post just caught my eye. I actually work at Everett Suzuki at Dwayne Lane's in Everett where Everett Mall Way touches Evergreen Way. We ain't a dirt lot, we have a big building. (We're actually a pretty new dealership.) I haven't been fond of Seattle Suzuki, myself. But yeah, I just wanted to let you know that there are other Suzuki dealerships in Washington. Not many, but we're out there!

Speaking of Dwayne Lane's in Everett, I went to try to buy an SX4 today (2008 SX4 Crossover w/Touring II). They offered invoice, which was okay (but not as good as another dealer offer I had), but they wouldn't give me a good price on my trade-in. We did the silly back-and-forth between the sales manager and the faceless guy somewhere in the back room (the usual good-cop, bad-cop routine, just like an episode of "Deal, No Deal"). After I showed them the Kelly Blue Book trade-in quote which matched what I wanted, they came back and said they use nadaguides which had a lower trade-in quote than Kelly Blue Book, but then proceeded to only offer me $1,000 _under_ what nadaguides said. Even with my lowest offer for my trade-in, I know they could have easily made at least $2,000 profit on a re-sale (my trade-in was a late model popular car that even has some original warranty left on it). But they wouldn't budge, so I walked out. When I went home, I only then realized that the nadaguides printout didn't even reflect all the extras on my car. So not only did they not honor the nadaguide price they at first said they used, they also were not honest in the printout they showed me. I know they're out to make a buck, but it's unfortunate that they took the usual dealer games to that level of dishonesty.

2008 SX4 Crossover w/Touring II, automatic by perry99

Seattle area. Got the 2008 SX4 Crossover w/Touring II, automatic, & the arm-rest accessory for $17,629 + tax. That's vs. $17,876 invoice ($17,251 + $625 destination) + $129 retail for arm rest, so I think I got a good deal.

That sounds like a good deal. I've been researching the SX4 for a couple of months now. How is the back seat room? I'm thinking of test driving the SX4 for use as a daily commuter but carpool with 2 other guys. Both are about 6'2" and 200 lbs. Will it be an agonizing commute?
 
Also I'm curious about the armrest. Is it a storage armrest? Please keep posting your comments here.
 
Thanks,
Rob

This is the "prices paid/buying experience" forum, so I'll post my reply to your questions in the 2008 SX4 Crossover forum.
