Bought a White one

speedworks · 01-10-2009, 11:53 AM

Well, after a few weeks of negotiating and confirming the Z is what I wanted I finally pulled the trigger today. I bought:

White
Base
Sports Package
Floor Mats
Trunk Mats
Kick Plates

I paid $400 over invoice ($32042) after talking to many dealers and going back to the first after I got the best. It's funny, I started at MSRP, then 1% below MSRP, then 4% below MSRP, to 500 above invoice, to 400 above invoice. I probably could have gotten another 100-200 more off but I wanted to give the business to the original dealer that let me test drive it.

Anyway, completely excited, I just have to wait for the car. It is at the Nissan distribution area (Tennesse?) and just needs to be shipped and received in MA. Looking forward to it, can't wait.

I'm surprised you were able to find a base with sports package. It seems most in wa are touring with sp.

Well, once you start to have the dealership search, there are many cars at the distribution area awaiting a dealer to claim it. I actually saw quite a few base with sports packages in the Ma/Ri/Nh area.

congrats! n great price.

Woohoo, got a call today and the car goes on the truck tomorrow (NJ) for delivery sometime this weekend/early next week. Get the seat modified, and I finally get the car.

Pics will come soon. The wife snapped a few last night, and we are expecting snow this evening, so I will try to get some uploaded later tonight, as the car will be in the garage for next few days (until things clear up).

Aw hell. The dealers here in East Texas suck! I just shot them what you paid and told them it's either that or NO DICE!!!

Anyway... Enjoy the ride, brother!

pics!

speedworks · 01-27-2009, 03:02 PM

Here are a few the wife took last night (at pickup). Unfortunately, it was dark, and I don't get home until dark, so any other pics will just have to wait. Sorry.

G&M Performance · 01-27-2009, 03:04 PM

Very nice!

speedworks · 01-28-2009, 08:55 AM

Yeah, I about shot them when I showed up and they had it parked between 2 cars. That would have been a deal breaker if the car had a door ding. Needless to say, it was perfectly clean, and I am enjoyed the first day of driving it. Wife took a few more pics last night, I will post soon.
