Paid OTD= $28,075.00 It was a dealer trade. The salesman was able to locate it for me all the way up in Santa Barbara. Very pleasant guy--no haggling. Drives like a car! Many thanks to this forum!!!

Sounds like a good deal. I got my SL AWD with leather, (Iridium Graphite), and everything you could get, as far as I know, and it was just under $25k. I then added another $1,000, or so, for moon roof wind screen, rear spoiler, bumper runner thingy, and front grill chrome thingy's. So it's about the same. I know that was a great price. Actually, it was a 2 year lease; $443/mo, $680 drive off. I don't think I could have done much better than that - though a dealer did, at the last second, try to give me the same deal with $300 drive off. But, they were 2 hours away versus right down the street. (though they said they'd deliver it). I was already too far down the road to switch for just a few hundred bucks.
 
LOVE, love, love my Rogue!!! It's my first SUV or truck or anything other than a car in my entire life - and I've had 36 cars. For the price, the Rogue is far and away the best value. To give you an example, my last few cars were: Infiniti M35; Lexus G300; Infiniti Q45; Infiniti I30t; VW Passat V6; Porsche 944; etc. As you can see, mostly luxury cars. And the Rogue doesn't dissappoint in that department. The only thing lacking is the rearview mirror camera - which I miss; and dual climate controls - also miss.
 
Those few things are minor, given the price-point and offset by the comparable luxury, ride, etcetera. Couldn't be happier with it - and that's saying something. The gas mileage was the clincher, BTW - I'm getting close to 26 on the highway, and I have a lead foot. Aroiund town it's about 21. So, pretty much as advertised.
 
My original plan was for the Murano, since it was $10k cheaper than the Lexus RX-450 Hybrid, but the gas mileage wasn't as good as the Rogue and I actually like the rider BETTER on the Rogue than the Murano. My build came to $29k, but I got them down to just under $25k, which I think was great. The Murano was $39k. Lexus $49k. The Rogue has plenty of zip and handles better, IMHO, than the Murano or Lexus. Fun as hell, and better on gas. Why anyone would buy a Murano - or any other crossover- is beyond me, unless they just don't know about it.

just became an owner of a 08 SL AWD loaded to the gills - MSRP $28070.00, paid $25500 plus TTL but not incl $500.00 rebate using the internet for 'bids' - don't know if that is good other than it is a bunch lower than Edmunds TMV - sounds very similar to your 'deal' . Buying experience was what I've come to expect. I had found the dealer that had precisely the color/option set I wanted in stock, and also had a written quote for the same car from another dealer, the salesman/sales mgr. involved still wanted to waste my time 'negotiating' a 'new' deal. Ended up quickly giving him a 'take it or leave it' ultimatum and started to walk out. Can't believe that anybody would spend this kind of money without doing at least some kind of research and have this 'ammo' available for precisely this kind of situation - his initial offer was for 2 grand more than I paid - wouldn't want to think about how long I might have been there if I had tried to whittle him down that much. Anyway, the buyer is the one spending a bunch of money here - how or where does anybody get off trying to dictate how I'm going to spend it? Bugs the bejeepers out of me. Whether we paid too much or not is not the point - nobody pays too much if they are happy with what they did pay!
 
Didn't like options like leather, bluetooth, and the xenons being tied to the AWD SL only - I live in Texas and would not have gotten the AWD otherwise although I do like the fact that both it and the VSC are easily user switchable.The AWD will cost me a mpg or two . At this point obviously a bit early to tell too much about this vehicle as this is replacing an Altima but I especially like the perforated and heated leather seats as well as the XM/Bose upgrade. Heading on a long trip in it (about 1800 total miles) this week and am expecting FE something in the high 20s - guess we'll see

can't tell what they get for Rogues in MA, but the SL w/premium/moonroof/mats/bumper guards (sticker $24760.00) are selling down here in TX for $22414 purportedly $500 under invoice but also not including a $500 rebate making it 21914 or a grand under. Suggest you do the same thing I just did - get some hard number internet quotes, buy from the most competitive dealer or if the dealer involved doesn't have precisely what you want, take your quote into the dealer that does and simply ask him to match YOUR best price and by all means be strong enough to walk out when he/she hems and haws too much but also be prepared to sign on the dotted line if the numbers are to YOUR satisfaction. Think the dealers in general will be pretty good at telling who is a real buyer as opposed to a 'sport' negotiator, and are generally aware of what the other dealers in the area sell things for. Understand that they really don't make a bunch of money selling new cars - that comes later in the service dept. or in the used car lots.
 
Invoice numbers (while not terribly representative of the car's actual cost) are available rather easily here at Edmunds (as well as MSN), both provide a no obligation quote service that will be sent out to dealers close to your zip code. Have found that Edmund's TMV (market value) numbers are generally high. You can also expand your search over a wider area by simply contacting those dealers directly on their own websites. The internet is a powerful tool sometimes - use it, may save you a grand or even more.
All vehicles tend to vary in popularity (and price) from region to region, heck down here in Texas the Dealers are STILL selling a bunch of pickups..

sure sounds like a long way to come - airfare + the gas to drive 1800 miles would mean a lot of bucks difference not to mention the time. To answer your question try Baker Jackson Nissan in Houston - you should be able to contact their website and their internet sales dept. directly as well as view inventory and so forth.
