In process of getting 4 quotes from (friendly) dealers in my area, haha
SO does anyone have a strategy that works on good negotiating techniques? Is there a percentage off the sticker i can try to shoot for? I read somewhere depending on car you can get 7-22 percent off sticker,
thanks for help
$1500 factory to consumer rebate
$1500 hidden factory to dealer rebate
As sales explained to me:
Dealer lost additional holdback/more to meet quota for additional sales bonus.
14 other local (DC) dealers wouldn't touch the price.
They drove it down to me, and it was nice and painless.

Only took a year to sort all that out... Now, just don't get me started on the Social Security Administration.. :mad:

Current rebates: $1,500 July, $500 until July 8th, $500 College Grad, $4,500 CFC/CARS. $179 state inspection required for all new cars (I hear).
Current initial internet offers (not including rebates and inspection, but includes splash guards and floor mats):
Rosen (Brown Deer) - $20,320
Boucher Waukesha - $20,131 ($21,067 with Convenience Package)
Boucher West Allis - $20,546
Russ Darrow (Brown Deer) - $19,914
M'Lady (Crystal Lake, IL) - $19,431
McGrath (Elgin, IL) - $19,611
I asked several of them if they were participating in the C.A.R.S. program right now and only Russ Darrow is; all the others are waiting until July 24th to start making deals. So for most of them, I won't be able to combine Cash for Clunkers with the $500 July 8th rebate.
So I'm planning to offer $19,000 - $1,500 - $500 - $500 - $4,500 = $12,000 plus Tax, Title, Registration and see if I can get that deal from one of the dealers willing to make C.A.R.S. sales this week.

Because you pay for the use of a vehicle during a lease, you should put as little money down as possible, up front. Although putting money down can lower your lease payments (by reducing your capitalized cost) in most cases it cannot be regained in the event of early termination due to a loss.
For example, a customer once leased a Toyota 4Runner and put $3,000 down as a cap reduction. Five months later the vehicle was totaled in an accident. The client's insurance paid its portion of the lease payoff and Gap Insurance paid the balance. Our client walked away with only paying his insurance deductible but he did not get reimbursed for his initial down payment of $3,000. It was lost.
The moral of this true story is to put as little money down as possible,ideally no money down. Here are some other things to consider:
- Money down is taxable
- Take the money you would have put down and invest it
- Put your down payment in a savings account and use a portion each month to help make your lease payment

Price after discounts (1500 rebate, college grad and dealer discounts) - $19,185, plus taxes and NYS fees.
Thanks in advance.
did you finally buy the car? and how much you paid? thanks.
The best quote that I was able to get was from FitzMall in PA, at $19500 OTD. But it was a 4.5 hour drive one way.

MSRP minus rebates it not a good price.
You should be around $19400 with Taxes and all the fees.
I'm guessing you are getting the extra $500 grad cash?
How does 22,570(MSRP) - 2,500(Rebate) = 18,300 (Selling Price)?

But the statement is still true.
Fairfax Nissan
Chantilly Nissan
2009 Altima S with Carpets, Manufacturer price $22, 547.
Sale price $17770 after 2000K rebate ($1500 + $500 holiday bonus ended today 7/8/2009), + TTL + Processing fee (can be bargain)
OTD price = $18,355.
Keep in mind though that the 'deals' are usually limited to different regions.
I had to pay 8.375% sales tax while you paid if I am not mistaken 5%, that comes to a $600 difference OTD. Even with that factored in, you still got an amazing price.
Enjoy the car.
Va tax for car is 3.2%.
I read post #2236, 2237 and 2239 and started from there.
it was a very good deal.
Thank You the forum.
i am paying 18300 plus ttl- this includes rebates and discount off of the MSRP of 22570 taxes are 8.5% sales tax and fees are $130 in my state
OTD is different in every state depending on taxes, reg fees etc.
List 22570
sell price 20800
rebates -2500
price before TTL 18300
So far the best sales price on a 2.5S CVT is $17777 (after rebates). Who can do better?
It would be nice if Edmunds had a database where people were able to submit the exact deals they got. It would make it easier for new buyers.

The best recent price (based on what people have posted on this forum) was $17777, I personally got $18000. So without that $500 incentive, you should be around $18400 (Sales Price) + TTL.
This is for the 2.5S with CVT.
If you want, enable your email to other members (in the forum preferences) and I'll email you the exact details.
MSRP $22,505 (Nissan Altima 2.5S 4dr CVT with Splash Guards and Floor Mats (the base S model))
+ Service Fee $179 (legally authorized in WI and I negotiated with this fee built into the final price. similar to a 'doc fee' in other states)
- "discount" $3341
= $19,343 negotiated price
+ $1083.21 = 5.6% sales tax (rebates are taxed in WI, but not in all states)
+ $113 gov't fees for registration, plate transfer
- $6,500 rebates: $4,500 CARS, $1,500 July Customer Cash (instead of finance rate), $500 college grad
= $14039.21 OTD (not including down payment)
Even with the requirement of financing through them, the rate is around 6% for well-qualified customers, so the $1,500 cash is going to be better than the 2.9% finance rate for most people as long as you put some money down.
Think about buying an altima in NC asap, thank you very mcuh
My local dealer insists on the msrp-rebate, which is $22505-$1500, and they said i am not qualified for the $500 college grad because i am not graduated within past 6 months... :mad:
Thanks very much!
