Hey all,
First post on the forum. I've been lurking for a couple weeks doing research, and found everything to be very helpful.
I've made progress on a deal and wanted to get input on whether or not you guys think it's a fair one. Here's a link to the car:
Certified Pre-Owned 2010 Nissan 370Z Touring,LTHR HEATED P/SEATS,NISSAN CERTIFIED For Sale | Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax VA P13821
Certified Pre-Owned 2010 370Z Touring
~20K miles
Price: $30,914
7 yr/100,000 mile extended warrenty
While at the dealership, I was able to get the price down to $28.5K. They also brought the trade-in offer up from $3K to $4.3K (above fair condition KBB for my '03 accord -- I was actually surprised with it having ~150K miles on it). It comes out to be a total amount financed (after all tags and taxes) of $25,567, and that is with zero down payment (I plan to put down at least a grand). I was pre-approved with a 2.99% rate (60 mo).
I checked the underside of the steering column and it was the "C" part number, so I'd be free from the lock-up problem.
It's not the perfect deal, but it is within my budget. What do you think? Should I have any concerns?
Thanks for your time,
Josh
