What does extended warranty cost? by ccdeblaze
Dec 24, 2007 (5:33 pm)

I requested quotes online through Edmunds. Dealer A came in at $31K w/tech package.
 
Dealer B came in at $29,000 w/tech package. I went to Dealer A to see if he could match/beat it. Dealer A won't match it and doesn't think Dealer B will deliver on his price.
 
I checked Cars.com. Their price is the same as Dealer A.
 
So I have an appt with Dealer B for Thursday. Dealer B swears he has normal colors. . . We'll see if there's a bit of bait and switch going on here. . .
 
Question: Is extended warranty a negotiable item? How much does it/should it cost?
 
Thanks for help. These threads are invaluable.

Most definitely it's negotiable. I don't quite remember what the financing manager had said to me but I seem to remember the extended warranty was for 6 year (as opposed to 3 year from manufacturer) for approx. $2500. When I refused he then tried to sell it to me for approx. $1500 and to also work that number into my monthly payment. Let me see if I can still find that brochure....

I don't know about the cost of the extended warranty...but one thing I found out when researching my NAH was that some Tech Packages come with the moonroof and some don't...the dealer may or may not include that information. The price difference can be several hundred dollars.

ANYTHING in a car purchase is negotiable. The extended warranty is a very high-profit item for dealerships, so you should be able to get a price break on that pretty easily. The moonroof is an expensive item, so I'd check to see if the car is equipped with one. Be really careful at that dealership. Take a print out of everything that you expect to get for the money (you can build a NAH on the Nissan website, with retail prices for everything, print it out, and take it with you).
I've heard of dealership actually trying to bait/switch car buyers to the standard Nissan Altima 2.5, since it gets roughly the same highway gas mileage (makes sense, really, that it does, the eletric motor on a Hybrid is for the slow, stop-n-go driving).

2008 NAH with Tech Package - $29,900 by 500e
Dec 31, 2007 (6:36 pm)

I used Edmunds to get some quotes in the SF Bay Area and it was clear this car could be bought cheap.
 
Another dealer offered me $29.7k. I was extremely happy with McKevitt in Berkeley and gladly agreed to the extra $200 in cap cost. I ended up with a lease at $434 plus tax for 39 months with 15,000 miles per year. No sunroof.
 
I also looked into the Prius with package 6 -- very similar in amenities, but a different driving experience (to me, a lesser driving experience). The best I could negotiate on the Prius was $434 plus tax monthly for 36 months and 15,000 miles per year. Easy decision for me after driving them back to back -- NAH!
 
McKevitt had quite a few tech package cars in stock and they treated me like gold. If you use email, Steve will be great to deal with. If you walk in, ask for Dave - he's a prince.

Thanks to everyone for help/feedback on the warranty. The quote I got was $1495-- firm. They gave me a few days to decide. I'm fairly certain I'm going to go back and pay for it.
 
My cost out the door for the car was $31,944.11 with tax and license (tax rate in CA is about 8.75%). I got the full tech package. Color is white with gray interior (yes, with the two-tone, but I can live with that. )
 
I didn't get the moonroof. I had a moonroof on my old car and the only thing I ever got from it was a sunburned scalp.

Close to pulling the trigger on an '07 Altima Hybrid by jakerome

Looking for some quick feedback on pricing. I can get a new '07 Altima Hybrid for $4000 under MSRP ($1500 Nissan Cashback + $2500 discount). The dealer has a bunch on the lot. Do you think there's any more room to negotiate there, or should I just grab that & run?
 
Factoring into it is that the $1500 Nissan Cashback ends tomorrow (January 2), and there's no guarantee it will be renewed. Anyone know if there will be new incentives on the '07 that start up on the 3rd?

that sounds like a good deal, i'd probably go for it. if you want to try to negotiate some more, by all means try. but i don't think it will be a significant amount
