Going lower than advertised on 09 w/sport pkg

Davetmml · 03-13-2010, 10:42 PM

So, there are 2 Z's that have the options I want... Base automatic w/ sports package +/- floor mats and splash guards. 1 is advertised at $31320, the other at $31115. My question to everyone is how much lower is a reasonable price given that is is already mid-March, 2010? Is $30,500 acceptable or am I going to be laughed out the door?

could be reasonable.....i guess it depends on the dealer/area I got mine but its not auto for 31,200 then with taxes and everything it came out to 33K

If I was you, I would offer $30K,then work up to your target price.

30,500 for an 09 is acceptable

NCSUPACK09 · 03-14-2010, 08:43 AM

I would offer $29.5k and work up to a $30K max. That would be right around 2K below invoice, which is where you should be at for a 2009 model in mid-March.

Got my 2010 for $1,366 under invoice - I don't think $2,000 under for last year's model is asking too much.

Damn, you guys have some crazy dealers. 1300 Below invoice. i am speechless. VPP???

NCSUPACK09 · 03-14-2010, 07:13 PM

Lou,

I got $1920 below invoice on my 2010 without VPP and without having to buy any additional warranty packages. This is why I know people should be able to get at least $2K below invoice on an 09.

No VPP. Just did a lot of homework and shopped around for about 4 months until I found a dealer that would give me the price I wanted. I started out going through my insurance company's vehicle buying service. Their service partners with dealers that will give members at or close to invoice or less. Of the dealers I checked that were partnered with them, Vaden Nissan in Savannah, GA started out at the lowest price of $1,066 below invoice. After looking at things for a bit the guy came back in and said he could drop the price another $300 - so I didn't argue. Other dealers were right at invoice and the next best price I was quoted was $299 under invoice.

I used USAA as well. They did well by me and the Dealer did even better. I have absolutely no complaints.
