Buying new Rouge by walusm
Aug 29, 2008 (5:30 am)
Reply
Tomorrow (aug-30) I'm going to Nissan dealer to get new Rouge. SL AWD with premium package, no moonroof and no leather. MSRP is $25350. Invoice should be something about $23000.
How much you think I can start asking for 2008 model. $21000 ? Considering labor day weekend and 2009 model should be out soon.
Is it worth to wait and get 2009 ??
 
I'm going to pay for the car cash. (Sold my Xterra).
What will be the good strategy to deal with dealer.
 
Thanks for your help.

the usual answer to whether or not you should buy the outgoing model year depends on 2 things - 1) how much cheaper the 'old' model is and 2) how long you plan on keeping the vehicle. As a general rule those of us that tend to keep cars 5 years or longer and/or drive them a lot are better served with those EOY clearance prices and those of us that lease and/or like to buy new cars every 3 or 4 years and drive less can save with the later model year. In your case, and given that the Rogue is basically unchanged, I have my doubts that you'll find a dealer willing to go 2 grand below invoice, it seems that in some areas the Rogue has been selling at or about invoice all spring and summer and the 09 model is not significantly different than the 08.
 Write the specs down for exactly the Rogue you want, be prepared to accept something maybe in a color combination and/or option pkg. different than what you might prefer , and then send it out to the Internet sales depts of all the dealers in your part of the country that you would consider traveling to. You will find out soon enough if your $21k expectation for an 08 model is realistic. Good luck!

thanks for replay,
when you request the quote from the different dealers online, do they give you the "real price" they can sell it for or it's still the price you can beat negotiating personally ?

depends on the dealer - and the buyer. I have found a number of dealers that still want to use the 'start-em' high tactic and also a few that seem to understand that he will run off the saavy car buyer who has done his research with that kind of BS. Purchasing a car doesn't have to be about sitting at some salesman's desk while he makes countless (and probably imaginary) trips to 'check with his sales manager' . My preference is not to negotiate at all, presenting the dealer with a 'this is what I'm willing to pay offer' and making it quite clear to him that you are NOT willing to waste your time playing these idiot games. I did get about a $1000.00 variance in the internet prices ($28k MSRP SL AWD) - simply used the lowest one (an email) to define what 'my' price was going to be, found the specific car I wanted, and drove off in it an hour later. It ended up being at a different dealer than the lowest price offered dealer but the negotiations became quite painless when I got up to walk out -- which BTW I believe to be the key - whether you like to play the games or not (some folks think it's sport??) - you do have to be ready and willing to walk away without that set of keys or for that matter be truly prepared to sign on that dotted line!!
Let us know how you did - and also how you like your newest acquisition

I got it. Black Rouge 2008 SL AWD with Premium Package for $22450. after rebate. (MSRP $25350).
I went to first dealer got the price 22500 but I walk away I tried something below 22k. they came to parking lot while we were leaving begging us to come back but they didn't lower the price. We went to another dealer got the price $22450 but the fees were lower so finally I paid $24500 (first dealer was way over 25k)
 
We love it so far. We went on trip about 60 miles and I got 26.5 mpg average. (mostly highway) Hopefully i will increase.

Mario,
Could you provide the dealership name and location? I am interested in the same pkg but with leather seats.
Thanks.

2008 SL FWD by mx6bfast

Just got approved and put a hold on a Rogue about 100 miles from me. 2008 SL FWD, Black/black, Premium Package, moon roof, splash guards, premium floor mats. They are adding on: moon roof deflector, kick plates, rear bumper guard. The dealer added on a stripe which actually looks pretty cool. It runs under the windows. MSRP before add ons was $24,685, with VPP discount and $500 rebate was $22,259. Add ons of $275 which brings an OTD of $24,697.
 
Extremely easy to do business with, everything (except the hold) done via email. No sales pressure at all. I think I got a good deal, and didn't want to push for anything better. I figured this was a good deal because a dealer only 60 miles from me was quoting nearly $1000 more for the same spec'd vehicle. Then of course it turns out the Rogue was sold 2 weeks before but their inventory system wasn't updated.
 
Going to pick it up in 2 weeks. Can't wait!!!

yep, that 'ultimate' tactic of being able to get up and walk out is possibly the best negotiating tool we have but not many have the 'strength' to do that (something that the usual car dealer is quite aware of) . I just object to all the games in the first place and will do my damndest not to spend any time sitting in anybody's office - hence the Internet shopping. Before the Internet I would do things like visit the dealer lots when they were closed, write down a stock number or two, and then phone the sales manager directly on the next business day, let him know what I wanted to pay for that car I was interested in, and if he could do it, I would be there that night to pick it up.
 I paid 25.5 BTW for my SL AWD with premium, moonroof, leather, as well as a few other more 'minor' things like window tinting and mats etc. - MSRP so equipped was a smidgen over $28k. Have been seeing right at 25-26mpg overall and also enjoy the car - talk about something that is practical .
