The "real" cost of the 40th package

jim123 · 06-20-2010, 12:30 AM

My window sticker says 40TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION 1200.00 but if you compare the total msrp price to a touring w/sport package the difference is only $780. The base msrp price on the sticker not counting the 40th and sport package says $34660 which is $420 less then the standard Touring model. Interesting cause the 40th comes with everything a Touring model has, right?

So fellow 40th owners, our plaques and car cover only cost $780, not $1200.

and the paint, and the special colored brakes, and the mere fact that it's a limited edition.

As a "for instance", the yellow paint last year and the black cherry paint this year were both a $500 bump.

^^I lol every time I see the USD prices compared to the canadian model, up here it is so much more!

And the red seats and door panels.

Well theres one here in town... its pre owned (a buddy of mine was told that the guy that owned it...just got bored with it... lol) with 5k miles on it. And they are still trying to get 75k out of it.

I agree. Hopefully my sarcasm came through in my original post. I actually don't think the price of the 40th package is out of line. I even received a very nice 40th Anniversary license plate bracket that I didn't notice until I got home from the dealer. It was in the back with the car cover. I don't see it listed on the 40th package. Anyone else receive a 40th Anniversary license plate bracket with their car?

I got the 40TH anniversary plate frame. The dealer (Brasso Nissan in Calgary) even put it on the car for me.

The license plate frame comes with the 40th package.

I didn't think my dealer was just being nice but I can't find anywhere it's listed as coming with the package. Have you seen it actually listed some where?

My guess is it falls under the "40th anniversary badging package"

But I haven't seen it listed by itself.

They should have given us two 40th plate frames! Instead for now I just took the Z plate frame off my 300 so the 40th looks proper. But I can see me getting another one asap saying 40th because that would look even better!!.........only because f***ing ontario makes us have both plates!
