    Yes, the tax and all fees are included in that price: $26,795 out the door; SL, Connection, Tech, etc; FULLY LOADED. The only thing I was adding was window tint.

    We are going in on monday to sign on a 2008 Altima with the following(unless someone says it's a bad idea):

    AKP ALUMINUM KICK PLA
    CAL CALIFORNIA EMISSI
    COX COX (Connection package - bluetooth etc)
    EAP EMERGENCY AID PAC
    FLO MATS WITH HOOKS
    SGD SGD
    SLP SLP
    WDF MOONROOF WIND DEF

    She has quoted (IN CA) including tax and rebates 23,000 OTD financed at 3.9... this seems like a very good price... any naysayers? BTW CA tax is 8.25% where we're buying it I believe

    Hi,

    I've received several quotes for a 2.5 SL and the best I've received is $22,299. Has anyone received a better quote? By the way, I'm in the Orange County, CA area. Thanks!

    Finally bought the 2.5S with SL plus floor mats and splash guards. With $1500 rebates, my price was $20956. Tax ($1857 @ 8.25%) and DMV registration + doc fees ($301) made it $23114 out the door. The car had only 7 miles in it and been in the lot from March 21. I financed through Nissan and got the 3.9% APR.
  • pmlboypmlboy Member Posts: 8
    Your price seems better than the one I got, and you're getting emergency package, kick plates and connection package apart from SL package. That is really an insane price. Go get it before they change their mind.

    Does anyone know what the deals or incentives will be for April?

    Just picked up my 3.5SE on March 31... $23,048 plus tax, tag, title @ 3.9% financing. $24,795 OTD

    Included the following options....
    S01 Sport Package
    L92 Floor/Trunk Mat
    P93 Aluminum Kick Plates
    K92 Emergency Aid Package
    B10 Splash Guards

    Worked thru the internet department at Coral Springs Auto Mall, Coral Springs, Florida.
    I spoke to virtually every Nissan dealer in South Florida, and my salesrep was by far the best. Very professional and friendly, low pressure.
    My worst experience was with Maroone Nissan in Delray Beach, Florida

    If you get that deal, please come back and post. I highly doubt you will however as that number is not a number that you would see on a total.
    I've had TWO dealers write me slips with prices saying OTD with prices. When I inquired about fees etc - they of course failed to mention that they do not quote prices with the tax, title etc as they are always added at the end to every car. All dealers do it in my area.
    So beware.

    I, located in Pittsburgh, PA, am having a hard time believing some of the prices posted on here. In fact, I started calling different states. WV, OH, NY, NJ, MD, NC, SC, IL for pricing. I've gotten prices from dealers in all of those states except SC hasn't gotten back to me yet. The best I've done is $500 under invoice for a 2.5 SL. BUT they all have much higher doc fees than PA which is $55.

    I've dealt with some real [non-permissible content removed] recently in other states. I've had so many tell me that I am wasting their time after initially the salesperson agreeing to a below invoice price. Then their manager talks to me to work the deal and tells me I'm wasting their time and mine. None of them believe the $200 under invoice deal I currently have on the table.
  • pmlboypmlboy Member Posts: 8
    I think $500 below invoice is a good price. If that is the lowest price you have received, then that would be your best option. Check if anyone else would be willing to beat it. The internet managers (I checked with 4 dealers) in Bay Area, CA I have dealt with were very nice on the phone. If they were willing to beat the competitor's price, they told me so. If they were unable to go lower than a value, they also told me that. Finally, one of them beat them all, and I bought from him. I brought the printout of the lowest price I received, and he beat it by $200. Incidentally, I used his first lowest quote to get better price from other dealers. Then used the updated lowest price to ask for a better price again from him.
  • tltctltc Member Posts: 9
    I traded in my Tahoe, so that changed my OTD (lowered my taxes paid) so I'm just going to give you the price of the car itself. I didn't go with the Altima with the tech pkg; I decided on a 2.5 with SL pkg, splash guards, mats, wind deflector, alumin kick plates and spoiler for $23,552, minus the $1,000 rebate = $22,552 plus TTLF. The dealership is located in NE Florida; I can give you more info if your interested. I spoke with many dealerships throughout Georgia and NE Florida. Hope this helps!

    Im interested in buying a 2007 Altima with automatic trans and about 20,000 miles. The problem, I only have $16 to $17 to spend "out the door". Do you think its possible to get one for this amount? I contacted one dealership and they said their internet prices are the lowest they would go and their prices are below Kelly Blue Book.

    So should I forget an Altima and look at something else. I don't want to keep barking up the wrong tree if its going to be super difficult.

    thanks
  • gooddeal2gooddeal2 Member Posts: 750
    I think 17K OTD is possible w/ a 20K miles '07 Altima.

    However, if you're not that far from Philly and you can wait till Aug., you can have my '07 Altima (about 5K miles now) which I just got in Aug. 07, for 17K "out the door = about 15.5K +TTL".

    Why do I want to sell my car? I just like to get a new car every 2 or 3 years but if the price is right, I can let go this year.
  • acura922acura922 Member Posts: 2
    i live in los angeles area i was shopping for 08 altima. salesman just offered me 08 altima 2.5s coupe with convenience package for 23500 OTD. he mentioned that he is selling for 500 below invoice price. is this a good price or i am paying little high?
    he also offered same car but sedan for 20938.
    let me know if this is good price to purchase
  • icepoloicepolo Member Posts: 9
    Adding accessories e.g., spoiler or fog light needs to have Technology Package etc. However, you could negotiate with your dealer to add the spoiler. I have seen people driving Altima 2.5 S w/ fog lights or spoiler without having any other Packages added such as Technology Pckg.
  • archiecooperarchiecooper Member Posts: 1
    i am not far from philly....what package/color/ etc?
  • gooddeal2gooddeal2 Member Posts: 750
    Auto 2.5S Silver w/ black interior

    Extra options: Emergency Aid package, Floor mats w/ trunk mat, and aluminum kick plates.

    The car still has 2 years basic (B2B) warranty and 4 years powertrain warranty left from this Aug.

    I have been saving on a down payment and will be ready to bite in May (stimulus check!).

    Does anyone know 1. The May incentives and 2. When the 09 will be out? I saw on the Nissan site that there is a sneak peak for the Maxima...
  • gooddeal2gooddeal2 Member Posts: 750
    1. I don't think anyone knows this

    2. Usually in late Aug. or Sept. unless there're some changes to the design but there shouldn't be any changes till the 2010 model.

    I'm in a market for Altima 2.5 S, 4Dr. with SL + Connection + Technology Package.

    $24609.00+Tax+TTL is the best quote that I have received here in the Nor Cal in South Bay area.

    Please post your advice on if it is a good price or I should still try and bring them down further.

    Thanks
  • bonzybonzy Member Posts: 12
    Thanks gooddeal. Looks like I'll finally have myself a new Altima in May! Late May seems best according to the research I have been doing on here..
  • speedy26speedy26 Member Posts: 1
    I'm currently looking to purchase the Nissan Altima 2.5S with the convenience package. I have no trade-in. Planning on putting 5K down and finance it for 60 months. The best offer has been 3-4% over invoice price. Can I do better?
  • steevosteevo Member Posts: 389
    YES. IMO, any quote that is 750-1400 under invoice INCLUDING the rebate is where you want to be.
    There is a 1250 rebate.
  • pupupupu Member Posts: 1
    My best quote so far for a 2.5SL+connection+tech is $24988.00 before fees. That is including the 1000 dollar rebate, I am going for the 3.9%. Seems like I am in the ballpark as far as pricing goes. That is here in norcal, east bay. I would like to try to get a little better, but not sure if i can?

    I was quoted $18,649 (before taxes, title, etc.) for an Altima S, 6spd, with floor mats and splash guards. This price includes a $1000 rebate (will be going for 3.9%) and is effectively $138 below invoice (with rebate factored in ofcourse).

    Another dealer has quoted $18,249, but is giving nearly 1400 less on my trade... And this dealer won't budge anymore after several tries (my trade is really hurting me!). This dealer is only giving NADA trade in "avg", while the first dealer is giving me the top end price for NADA trade in...

    Trade aside, are these decent price quotes on their own? I am in the Boston area...

    Thanks much!
  • ecoaster1ecoaster1 Member Posts: 3
    In general, you want to be very close to the published invoice price for the car before applying any rebates.... so this sounds like you might be able to do a little better.

    However, I don't know the local Boston market, plus you're looking for a 6-speed and the supply of those is more limited compared to the CVT models so you may not do as well on the price vs. an automatic.

    Your trade price is really independent of the car price, but if those two dealerships are that far apart on the trade, you've got to consider which one is the best overall deal at the end of the day.

    I just leased a Nissan Altima 4dr Sed 2.5S for 39 months. The MSRP with the addition of leather to be installed at the dealer was $22914.00 I negotiated a cap cost of 21352.69 and the residual was set at 12752.85. The money factor was 00132. I paid 557.00 down which included the first payment and tag and title fees etc. The payments worked out to 308.16 plus 21.57 tax for a total of 329.73. The total of the 39 monthly payments is 12,018.24 which is made up of 8599.99 in depreciation charges and 3418.25 in what they refer to as Rent Charge.

    Does this sound like a good lease deal?

    Thanks for any feedback.
  • gccambridgegccambridge Member Posts: 24
    Thanks ecoaster1, you made me feel a lot better!

    I should have been clearer with my email, the price of the Altima was effectively $1,138 below invoice WITH the rebate factored in. I re-read some previous quotes and had misunderstood them... I guess all things considered this was a pretty good deal...

    From my estimates, I ended up taking about 1/3 of the dealer-holdback. I just wasn't sure if there might have been any other manufacturer to dealer incentives that of course are just much harder to find out about...

    6 speeds are very hard to come by indeed. Only had about 4 or 5 in all of Boston.

    08 Nissan Altima 2.5 SL W/ technology, connection, fog lamps, spoiler, mats, splash guards, was quoted $25,608, 3.9% for 60 months........good deal or not?
  • ricky20ricky20 Member Posts: 4
    This is a good price... Does that include Sales Tax and other fees?

    Which color is that?

    I agreed on a deal with a dealer here in MA... Gave them a deposit, they could not find the color that I wanted (Majestic Blue, Sonoma or Dark Slate). Price was $26700 includes sales tax (5%), Dealer fees and new registration. I had to cancel the deal because the 3.5 was too much for me to pay.

    Are you in the New England Area?

    Just picked up an Altima 2.5S with SL package, splash guards, at dealer cost - 23,675. Was going to put 2000 total down but they allowed me to take off 590 for my remaining 2 lease payments [that was their way of "paying off my lease"]. So total down 1410 included all fees and 1st mo. payment. 36 month lease - 12k miles/year - 297/month including all fees and taxes. Leased in NJ in April - not sure of all of the other leasing factors that go into it - wondering if someone can help me out in seeing if i got a just okay or great deal before I go back to the dealer for another car for my wife.

    Thought that since i was getting it at dealer cost that it was the best deal but was uncertain about the money factor / residual percentage fluctuations etc. So need help in determining just how good this deal was

    Thanks

    Bought new 2.5S 4 cylinder CVT with SL and Connection packages today. Negotiated cost was, in rough terms, high-kbb for my trade (but 700 less than consumer reports est) and 10% off msrp on the new car, counting the 1250 rebate. I like the dealership and the sales manager who is a marathon runner. Mansfield Ohio
  • bonzybonzy Member Posts: 12
    May I ask what the total price was? That is about the exact package I am looking for... and Mansfield is about 3 hrs from me.

  • trolleyfantrolleyfan Member Posts: 7
    Purchased at the end of March. Only options I took were mats and splash guards. No navigation. Including the $1250 rebate, I picked it up for just under $25K. Price was given to me over the phone. No financing was needed and I wasn't planning on a trade in. They asked if I was interested when I got to the dealership and I said ok. I had done my homework and knew the trade in value from Edmunds. Their offer was right in the Edmunds range so I traded it in and got the extra value in the sales tax reduction and didn't have the hassle of selling it myself and maybe making a couple of hundred more. Great buying experience here in suburban Philly.

    how many months??
  • spocpmspocpm Member Posts: 6
    Received a quote of $21,800 for a 2008 2.5 Sedan, CVT, SL Package, Floor Mats, and Splash Guards. This $21,800 does not include sales tax or license registration fees. This is by far the best deal I've gotten and will be purchasing it soon. The $1,000 rebate was applied to this quote.
  • ral2167ral2167 Member Posts: 791
    for how many months was your lease for? 36 months?
  • rmelkonrmelkon Member Posts: 1
    I am looking for a similiar package. Was the list on this 25465? Sounds like a great deal. I am located in Mass. Thanks for your help.
  • spocpmspocpm Member Posts: 6
    Yes, the one I'm looking at has a MSRP of $25,465. I got this price from a car broker in Los Angeles.
  • bonzybonzy Member Posts: 12
    Should I ask for the rebate to be included in quotes, or does it matter?

    Thanks, spocpm, your quote will help me as a general guideline.
  • spocpmspocpm Member Posts: 6
    I don't think it matters whether you ask for the rebate to be included in the price. I did it because I wanted the bottom line price. Anyways, I think most salespeople include all applicable rebates in their price to quote you the lowest price possible. Good luck.
  • lamsonnguyenlamsonnguyen Member Posts: 2
