If yours is in-stock it's too close to end-of-month to pay over invoice IMO.
new to posting here, but following for a while
Just went to a dealer today for G35x with premium package, splash guards, and i think trunk mat
The dealer invoice apparently comes out to 30167+3016+58+610 (last destination fee) total being $33,851
I gave an offer of about 33,500 to one dealer who wasnt quite ready to negotiate unless I bot it today, but I think he would of given me that price had I really pushed him. But he seemed to say "I would have to speak to my manager". IT IS THE END OF THE MONTH YOU KNOW!
emailed several dealers. ONe said they cannot give me that price, which is below invoice. They would sell it to me at 500 over dealer cost! Get outta here. AVOID INFINITI OF WILLOW GROVE!
Ive seen several people here get $33,300-33,700 for same vehicle!
Whats going on in the philly area? I told them i am not going to pay invoice, if anything, a maximum of 100-200 below invoice is my final stand.
Inputs appreciated. thanks
yassy
how did they give you that price?
thanks

That's close, but not quite accurate (please see invoice pricing at edmunds.com). Base is indeed $30,167, and your numbers on the options are correct. However, you left out the Destination Charge of $610 (once again, see edmunds.com).
The correct invoice on the car you've described is $33,894. Actual dealer cost is $34,038 (invoice + $144 PDI).
I will sell any G35X Sedan you select at $500 over dealer cost, plus tax and tags.
Dealer holdback is not negotiable.
With American cars dealers, holdback is inflated and is, in fact, extra profit. Holdback on import cars is minimal and allocated to paying for the dealership's floor plan and operating expenses, not to profit.
I'm afraid that "Around $32K" is not doable, since it's under both invoice and dealer cost. No Infiniti dealer can sell you a G35X under invoice unless it's a 2004 leftover, as I'm sure you can understand.
MSRP: $34,490
Invoice: $31,697
Edmunds TMV: $32,972
My Price: $30,969
So I paid $33,700 out the door.
What do you guys think?

Damn, you got fleeced! Hehe, $700+ under invoice, great deal; more importantly, you bought it, congratulations.....doesn't matter what anyone thinks... Enjoy the car.
I just did consumer report check
There is a consumer rebate listed thru 6/30/2005 of $2000 on G35x.
It then says "1.9-2.9% financing in leu of the rebates. "
Does that mean rebate of 2000 still good, or only financing catch
available now.
If 2000 rebate still good, more bargaining power. i trust consumer reports
If you clearly see $2000 or 1.9-2.9 through 6/30/2005 on Consumer Reports, you could take a print-out to dealer.
The dealership I'm working with is giving over $500 below invoice at 1.9% financing; I can't see them go $2,000 or $2,500 below invoice if I pay cash. I've to go sign up at Consumer Reports, possibly, to find out more.
The dealer said he has never heard of this rebate. I was going to pay 32000 max wiht that rebate. I am calling infiniti today to find out about it.
I did get quote for g35x with premium and splash for 33,500 over phone
Another dealer would not even sell for anything below 33,700.
I say people ban together to screw these infiniti dealers or wait till sept/october when infiniti will be pushing to get the new 2006 models in.
Dealers are scum
Tell me what it cost the manufacturer, what the dealer profit is, what the salesman gets, item by item, I'll be glad to pay; I should also be able to pay a salesperson the equivalent of a "tip" (~after I read the Confessions of a Salesman article on Edmunds~). Take away all this crappy time-consuming hair-wasting number-crunching process out of it.
Oh, back to the $2000 lol, any way to call Consumer Reports and ask?
If you know the exact amount you want to borrow and the interest rate, you can get an amortized payment schedule on bankrate.com. You'll be able to see your exact monthly payment total and total principal/interest paid monthly, annually, and end of loan term. Print it out and bring it to the dealership with you. If the numbers don't match, then be wary.
33,500
thats about 400 under invoice
Good deal?
I also was a bit perplexed at a 2000 consumer rebate that consumer reports says on its website, however, dealers deny it.
Should I wait till the new 06's start coming around and bid on the old 05's?
thanks
yassy
As far as waiting, depends how soon you need the car. I wouldn't wait 2-3 months just to get a few more hundreds off the 2005 car.
That's about what I paid, and the dealer had to trade with someone from your area to find me the car (very similar car -- "C", '05x, NAV, etc.)
In any case, I settled for a G35X pkg C navig. woodtrim splashguards 35K + taxes etc. , and took the 1.9% over 3 years.
The best place that wanted to deal was the dealer in allentown, pa.(bennett infiniti ?spelling) - called me 3x but I didnt pick up. I aint buying just yet
infiniti of ardmore - looks like they are not that anxious to get any bids below invoice - nice people
infiniti of west chester?? They may have sold to me for little below invoice but I didnt want to agree to anything at that time (g35x with pack c, splash guards, ?trunk mat) - nice people
It looks like all dealers are denying the 2000 rebate I printed from Consumer reports. Edmunds does not show it, so either consumer reports is wrong and likely had that rebate for 2004 versions, or all dealers are getting extra 2000 grand from Nissan. (which i know they likely are anyway - no dealer pays invoice)
I will wait again for the end of july for now.
G35 Coupe (automatic)
-Diamond graphite exterior/stone leather interior
-Premium Package
-DVD Navigation
-Sports-tuned suspension package
-Aero Package
-Splash guards
-Trunk Mat
MSRP: $40,250
Invoice: $36,713
Paid: $36,427
Invoice 31,148
Price 31,500
You gotta love negotiating the price over email and not having to go through the headache of doing it in person where they leave the room 10 times to talk to the sales manager and get up and walk out only to have them call you back to the showroom.
Not a fantastic price but I think its fair.
Is G35 coupe equiped with a 298 hp engine, and is that why it is a little more expensive than the sadan?
Invoice $30,148
Paid $30,500
where did you get 900 under invoice?
I will gladly take that from you! i pay you deposit so long as dealer
gives me 33,000 for pacakge c with splash and g35x
let me know asap
Again, I have to be the bearer of bad news but you can do better.
The forum rules say you may include dealership names. Could somebody please give me names/locations of dealerships selling MTs for $500 over invoice? I am ready to buy now and can pay cash if I have to but I am just not finding the deals that other posters to this forum are claiming.
And are ALL these salespeople I have been talking to just lying about the financing?
For the guy above making $50k trying to buy this car... might I suggest you buy a car you can afford? Those payments will kill you! Go buy a house instead. Better investment and, as long as you are decent looking, you don't need the car to get l**d.
Good luck to all.
And what about the special Infiniti financing: the dealers here swear that it is not available for the coupes. Can someone name a dealer who says otherwise?
Thanks!
thanks
