Dealership custom order wait times?

john370z · 01-12-2009, 07:53 PM

To correst..I am paying $36,900 for Yellow, Sport, Touring, AT, floor mats, illum door panels, trunk mat. MSRP is about $40,300. I have contacted over 50 dealerships just in the couthern california area and only a few offer around $400 over invoice and most are MSRP only. This price is right at invoice and maybe even a bit lower. I got lucky with the mis-quote on the $500 charge for yellow.

The initial release was kind of expected to the dealers. Nissan just dropped off the car without telling the dealers. The sales guy I talked to said his dealer didn't even place the order for the car.

Gang,

My Son is the Service Manger at the local Nissan Dealer. He tells me, when I asked him to find out, that from Order time to delivery time is 45 to 60 days. Now there are certain times of the month you have to order by. But he didn't tell me when those dates are.

Update 1-24
I have found out today that you need to order by the 8th of the month to get the order in in time for that months builds.

Hey, that's the American way. We can't stand to wait on anything. We are a very impatient society and that's not all bad. Because look at all that has been accomplished by Americans over the last 200+ years.
