Advice for buying 09 touring

Strangler · 01-06-2010, 06:46 PM

Ok Im looking at an Black 09 Touring 6 spd with nav for $39000. It already has 200 miles on it and the dealer still consider it as new. Im currently in Panama City, FL right now and they dont have the black touring that I want. So they said they can drive over to Atlanta and drive the car back which will bring the car up to 500ish miles when it returns to FL.

The $39000 is the OTD price including tax and everything. They also have a life time warranty on unlimited miles and time. Is this a rip off price for the car? I mean when I buy a new car it usually has 5-6 miles on it or less. He told me the technicians were probably testing the car to make sure that its good and everything. I think this is BS as there is no need for such testings on a new car.

What do you guys think I should do? If its 39k I should might as well wait for an 2010. It would probably be the same price or so.

Nissan does test a few cars here and there, but nothing more than 50-60 miles. 200 sounds like a dealer trade or a test drive vehicle.

It is still new, never title technically, but it's whatever you are comfortable with.

About the price, what is it with out tax and titling fees.

I guess what I am saying is a better breakdown would help determine if it's a good deal or not
Sale Price
Taxes
Title Fees
Dealer Fees
Transport fees,,,,,ect....

i got a quote for 33k for a blue 09 AT touring w/ nav and some other add ons today, 25 miles on it, Id say they can/should go lower.

That sounds too good to be true. I dont know how you're able to even get that low. It doesnt seem possible to me. I went to 2 different dealers and both prices were way up there. One of the dealer told me theres only 2 09 black touring + nav 6spd in the US right now. But I decided to get the 2010 instead.

Anyways, it came down to buy a "new" Z with 200ish miles or so because they have to drive it from another state back to their dealer for the brand new car price. Will be delivered within 24-48 hours. Or order straight from Japan which will be a bit more expensive and could take up to a month or so. Mileage of this car of course will be around 1 or so.

I dont like the idea that some guy driving the car im buying from state to state just to get it delivered. I dont know if he was recklessly driving the car or not. I cant get over that.

I know right. I really didnt even have to haggle with the guy either. That number was offered by him and it kind of makes me believe they might be able to come down lower. but its a good price regardless imo.

^^guys when you're comparing prices you really have to clarify if that was your out the door price like the OP did. It's really hard to compare if not. A salesperson will rarely tell you the out the door/off the lot price unless you specifically ask for it.

A sales guy will tell you "X" but if you talk further you'll find that usually that means "X" + all sorts of misc fees and then taxes, etc......makes a huge diff.

I think you should be able to haggle a bit more. It's a 09 left over after all.

I just picked up a blue 09 Touring (no nav or sport package) for 31k out the door. Local dealer has to compete with a CarMax that has rock bottom pricing on 09's.
