i'd rather wait for the 2010, or start looking for a cayman s
Yeah, I'm still in university and if I get the car by end of aug / early sept, there will be very little time to actually enjoy it. I'm keeping the 3 month limit because I stand by the rule that this car is "new" for the year and 3 months from sign date is more than enough time.

Also, I too went to Maple Nissan and truthfully, I didn't get the best deal. I acutualy wasn't looking for one! I signed comfortably close to MSRP for the following reasons:

-brand new model car for the year
-I work very hard at my job but the recession hasn't hurt me the way it's hurt a lot of car dealers.
-3 month MAX wait time for this car to still be new for the model year seem reasonable (I've seen enough 2010 model cars out now that I consider 2009 "not new" anymore)

If my contract voids (end of july) I will present my new offer to Maple which is Canadian BASE + NAV - out the door @ 48590 ($43000 before taxes).

If I were to not include tax, this figure would be a $1707 discount including their "standard" $399 security etch.

Does anyone have any advice or opinions?
