Well Traindriver...now's an excellent time to make a move on an '08 model so I'm pretty sure you can work a sweet deal on one since they want to get rid of them to make room for the '09's.
 
Again...good luck!

Sorry, I meant closeout time next year. Our current Jeep lease ends 9/2009.

It's all good, same applies...just a year later. You should be able to get a sweet deal on an '09 model since they'll be making room for the 10's!

Greenville SC Infiniti dealer is still advertising 2008 M35's for less than 33K

Carolinabob,
 
I hope deals like that are available next August. If so, that's the car I will probably push for. I figured that you must be near me from reading some of your posts in the past. I'm in Greenwood, so any dealer from Atlanta to Charleston to Charlotte would be easily manageable. Where are you getting your info about Bradshaw Infiniti? (online, Greenville News, etc.) Do you have anything positive or negative to say about them or others in the region? thanks

That approach sounds fine in theory and that is exactly the line of attack that I used on my wife. The Hyundai folks let me take the car for a couple of hours and could not have been nicer. This was when they were first trickling in and I had to take a black one.
 
I surprised my wife around noon (no, not that !). She came out with a big frown on her face, circled the car a time or two and pronounced that she did not like black cars. I said they came in different colors so not to worry, this was just a tester.
 
She got in the passenger seat and we took a spin. She was sitting ramrod straight, arms crossed and a look on her face like someone was holding a small turd under her nose.
 
I knew all was lost at that point and it would not have mattered if we were driving a Rolls Royce. It was not her idea so it had to be a bad idea !
 
As plans go, I agree this is a good one...but it reminds me of the time some guy was interviewing Mike Tyson back when he was in his hey day. The guy said that his next opponent had said that he would beat Tyson in their upcoming fight because he had a plan ! Tyson replied that everyone he fought had a plan.....until they got hit !
 
Long story short, I really liked the Genesis and thought it was very impressive. A really nice car and based on my short test I would certainly recommend to anyone to at least give it a shot.....but I am still driving my '02 Acura RL.

M35s for 33k sounds just a bit too good to be true, are these right off the showroom or are they demos, etc? It's a great time to buy a G35 since the new G37sedans are just now starting to trickle in. I know the G is quite different than the M and the Genesis, but IMO they are the most fun sedan for 35k or less. The Genesis is a very nice ride and every time I see one (which has only been about 6 times since we're in a smaller city) I have to give it a second look, and yes, they should be considerd luxury in the same league as the higher priced Lexus&Infinity vehicles. Our previous Hyundai Sonata Limited was a fine vehicle, and for the price it's tough to beat. If I don't go w/ another Infinity G I may look into the Genesis Coupe when the time comes, since it may be more in line w/ the Gs sporting nature. I AM one of those that has a hard time overcoming the "Hyundai as Luxury"
nomenclature, but thy HAVE proven that they are building vehicles at a much higher quality level than just a few short years ago, and they take all the right stuff from every other manufacturer they are trying to emulate & compete against.

Sounds fishy.
 
Assuming they are being sold as new, in other words, not one with thousands of miles on the OD (i.e. demo), 33K does not bold well for the dealership, neither to the car brand. If Hyundai can sell a good amount of units of the Genesis, w/ relatively little discount, mind you, and even during the whole economic turmoil, then I don't think Infiniti and/or the dealer would be so desperate to resort discounting 10K+ on the M (assuming it's the barebone M35, which starts around 44K, IIRC). On the other hand, it's a great deal for the consumer, if what you're saying is true...
 
EDIT: is Bradshaw Infiniti the dealer you're talking about? Browsed around, cheapest M35 came in around $47K - nothing seemed to have indicated 33K M35 - didn't think so:

Joe97,
 
You need to scroll down the main page at Bradshaw to see the special: 44325 msrp - 11375 discount = 32950. You missed the "sahara sandstone" in the inventory for 44325.
 
other NC/SC/GA dealers:
you need to dig around a little but most are on the "specials" page
 
Infiniti of Charlotte: 7521 off
South Atlanta: up to 12k off
Gwinnett: 33498
Crossroads: 8k off
Modern: up to 10k off
 
Edmunds incentives page shows 6000 mfr to dealer cash and a 1500 "sell down" bonus. (whatever that is; never heard that term before) I assume this means a total of $7500 mfr to dealer cash before you begin to negotiate any dealership discount off of sticker. It seems possible to see a +/- 10k discount for an educated negotiator. might be demos, might be smoke and mirrors -- I can't say with any authority.
 
Anyway, we probably need to drift back towards discussion of the Genesis; makes the hosts antsy when we get out of a narrow range.
 
Edit: I see a handfull of 08 M35's on ebay with miles in the low teens for 27xxx to 30xxx -- so 33-36k for a new one doesn't seem out of line.
 
There's also 2 new Genesis in Ohio on ebay: 36k msrp, buy it now for 33276 plus 275 fee. Another in Jacksonville NC 35k msrp, buy it now for 32450 so the discounting has begun on the Genesis also. FWIW
