I know its tier 0 and 1 thats applicable with NMAC just wondering what exactly the threshold is.

Metallic Jade/Blond leather, Tech, moonroof by redwood2

I joined the club! Purchased a metallic jade/blond leather '08 NAH w/tech pkg today (no aluminum kickplates or wind deflector). $27,424 after rebate taken. I had to finance with Nissan for 7.59% for the whole price, but will pay most off next week, leaving the minimum of $8,000 for 90 days, then pay it off entirely. This will cost approx $300, but is offset by what I would have to borrow anyway from my own line of credit, so it really ends up to be about $80 extra. All told, (with interest I now have to pay included) this works out to be about $2840 below invoice (including the rebate). Tax and license not included.
 
This was from Bay Bridge Nissan in Oakland, CA. I approached seven dealerships and they were the best at communicating, working with me on a price, and no pressure. They quoted me the first lowest price ($1,000 below invoice before rebate). When I countered with my (even lower price) they were the only ones who agreed to talk to figure out how to meet my price. Others told me things like, "That is too low, we're in the business of making profit, if someone meets your price, bring it in writing and we'll match it." Well, they didn't get my business.
 
Wierdly, when I got home today, there was an email waiting for me from Boardwalk Nissan in Redwood City, CA, with a BETTER OFFER! Two days ago they scoffed at my last proposal and wouldn't deal, telling me that they couldn't sell at that price. Apparently (so they say), they'll have an ad running this weekend for a "similarly packaged" NAH for $26,749 after rebate. It seems there are some hidden incentives somewhere, allowing dealers to sell for way under invoice now.
 
I will be happy to give Bay Bridge Nissan a great CSI report.
 
Thanks for everyone's experiences -- they helped a lot. Now I'll get to think about my mileage instead of prices Moral: taking your time is worth it.

Hi all,
  
I am getting quote of $27,156 with $1,250 rebate for 2008 Nissan Altima Hybrid with Connection Package and Moon roof. The Invoice price i think is $28,842. I am in Massachusetts. So after taxes and tags it is $29,107. Is this is a good deal.
  
Thanks.

Not a good deal. I also live in Mass & just purchased two vehicles from Mastria, in Raynham. ONe was identical to what you got, except it had aluminum kick plates and wind deflector. List was $28335, purchased for $25200 after $1250 rebate. After title, taxes, doc fees, etc, my total was $27,555, plus extended gold plus warranty $1356 (6 years, 75,000 miles) total $28,805.
 
Also, "tires for life" if you have vehicle serviced at dealer, plus "double" powertrain warranty to 120,000 miles, plus they threw in portable Nav System (supposedly worth $300)
 
Actually had another deal with Balise, in Warwick, RI for virtually same car for $500 less than this one, but I didn't like they way they did business.
 
Are you anywhere close to Raynham, MA?

Thanks, Redwood2. Did your new car include moonroof in the price? Also did you approach the 7 different dealers by internet or telephone?
 
I will definitely check out Bay Bridge in Oakland (and the one touted in Petaluma). I have relatives in Antioch, Berkeley, Petaluma, Sacramento and Fresno, so would appreciate any other leads to help me decide which city I will fly into.
 
I can't go until mid-April and noticed the Nissan rebate is supposed to expire the end of March. I noticed earlier postings in 2007 said they kept extending them. Can I trust that will continue for 2008's?

Thanks for the information oocking. I called Mastria and they were not ready to match your numbers. They were 1 hour drive away (I live in framingham) and they told me you traded in and so you got a good deal. I went to clay at norwood and got the car with convenience package for $28,500 out of the door. Now i am off to find some good 0% APR deals on credit cards to pay off the loan..

Interesting, I purchased two NAH's last week from Mastria. One did have a trade, the other was a cash deal. I feel even better now about the deal I got. Worst dealer around here is E. Providence Nissan. Fireside Nissan in North Attleboro never got back to me with pricing, and Balise, in Warwick were the ones to only offered me a good deal after I had made the deal with Mastria. They did everything they could me to convince me to back out of the deal with Mastria, which says something about their ethics. Good luck with your purchase at Clay.
 
So far, my wife & I both love the vehicles, only problem I have is I believe the road noise (rather wind) is more than I would like and, possibly as a result, the voice recognition does not work that well at highway speeds. Sitting in the driverway fine.

mags49: it included a moonroof, no wind deflector, no aluminum kickplates. I approached the seven dealerships by phone (I had already visited two in person to drive the cars) and asked if they would send me their best proposal if I sent them my specs. All seven said yes. I emailed my specs (color, trim, package invoice and MSRP prices listed plus destination) and waited. It took 1 1/2 days for them to reply and I had to call at least three of them to see if they got my email. Carsdirect.com was the highest proposal and they wouldn't go lower. Bay Bridge responded first to my email with the lowest price. So, it was an internet/phone combo. It took Monday through Friday to get a car at a price I liked. Be patient! Careful: Redwood is running a very low price now on a NAH, which may already include the tax credit. Good luck!
