I got my 2008 Rogue, Wicked Black, Premium pkg and moonroof yesterday! I am so loving the Bluetooth! Thanks to the information on Edmunds I was able to be a savvy buyer. Initially, I was told I could get the above car and options for $25,773, before TTT and other fees. I let my salesperson know that that was too much and showed him the internet offer for $23,394. He took it to his sales manager and returned with the great news that they were going to match it. And they did it with no haggling and no fuss! I was sooo surprised. The finance guy tried to sell me Gap insurance for $700, but with all my research done I knew I could get it for $349 and I told him no thank you. He offered it for $300! Then, he tried to sell me an interest rate >10% and I told him I had my own financing at 6%. Some how, he was able to delve into his book of tricks and pull out a rate of 5.24%! Wow, imagine if I was at the mercy of the dealer. It pays to do your research because once everyone involves sees how confident and knowledgeable you are they don't waste a lot of time trying to play games. It pays to do your research. You can save thousands of dollars! ">

Hi everyone - I am going to look for the LS AWD, so far I've only read posts here and looked at the pricing. I have not even test driven to see if it's in fact the car I want because I'm afraid of getting suckered into someone's office when I hit the lot. Can anyone give me advice on a plan of attack? Do I test drive first and tell them i'm still comparing, then come home and get an internet quote? Or should I test drive and if it's teh car I want then just go in with the numbers and deal with a sales guy on the spot? Please help, I also have no problem with walking away and holding out for a phone call, but i just really need to know how to begin. Thanks in advance!

Replying to: marcogallo1986 (Jun 24, 2008 6:02 am) IMO, overly aggressive and also something that the dealer will see thru to the point of ignoring you. If I was that second dealer in your sequence I wouldn't give you the time of day. Sooner or later you are spending a lot of time 'fighting' over $50 - on a $25000 vehicle. Waste of time for me and for him. Simply use the internet to find out who will give you the best price and then go get the car from him if he has the actual vehicle you want. If your research determines, for example, that $25k is about right for a full boat Rogue SL AWD in your area then by all means buy it and don't waste a bunch of time on some sort of 'reverse auction' that has no bidders. Just an opinion, of course.

| I am confused about something. Went to test drive the Rogue SL with perfirmance package and the sticker price was around $24K and change, including destination charge of $725. But the dealer added on fees of $1995 for environmental protection package (to scotch guard the seats) $690 dealer prep fees to pull off the protective plastic and wash it, and another unbelieveable $1900 for Regional Market Adjustment. When I asked what that was for salesman said because this was so popular they were adding $1900 to the price. Oh, and $69 for a nitrogen fill in the tries. Has anyone ever heard of this!! In my negotiations do I just refuse to pay any of this nonsensical profiteering?? | |
