Thanks in advance,

I special ordered my G35 Sedan at the end of September (October processing) and received my car 1/11/03. I ordered with Sport/winter/roof. I did not want the Bose or the Areo or the premium. So you can order without the Bose. No complaints, my standard 6disc indash CD changer w/ steering wheel controls is just fine for me.

Autobytel and three dealers by phone or e-mail. Based on several posts I
decided to e-mail Infiniti of Orland Park. I was contacted by Infiniti of
Orland Park within a couple of hours. I told them what I wanted. I was
given a price by phone that was significantly better than any other dealer
or buying service in the Chicago Land area. A couple didn't bother to repond.
Today I drove the 120+ miles (round trip) to value my trade an confirm the
price. The price was
exactly as verbally supplied via phone last week.
It was a simple and pleasurable experience to deal with these folks. To
make matters even better
they located the exact car/configuration and it should be here in a few weeks.
I also tried to deal with Willow Grove, and after that experience I told myself I would never try doing business with that dealer again. I felt they treated my 7 month pregnant wife and me like we didn't belong in the "Infiniti" world. They were very disrespectful and didn't seem very interested all at in trying to make the deal. All I heard from them was how "everyone else is paying sticker." They weren't willing to negotiate much and after my trade, I netted out almost $1500 better with Ardmore.
BTY, I just got a mailer from Ardmore describing $250 in free accessories with a new purchase so you might try asking for that too.
If your company is a participant in the VPP then you phone the Infiniti 1-800# and they give you a PIN. You should phone Infiniti dealers that are participating and then when you go to the dealer you have to identify yourself as a VPP participant. You give them the PIN and show one piece of ID that shows you work for your company.
At this time VPP is not offered on the G35 coupe.
I did not know that my company was a participant until I found it by accident on our company internal web site. Also if you're a member of a credit union some of them also participate in VPP.

Got Desert Platinum, a base leather (Willow) model; although the toys are nice, they really weren't necessary for me. The only thing I'd like to add soon is a rear deck spoiler and a light smoke tint...nothing else. I like the car the way it is!
CarsDirect Invoice $27759, my price approx $28250 + tax and title. The price is approximate because I think they were playing with my trade in value. Two other dealers quoted 17500 and 16500, while they low-balled me at $15600; Kelley Blue book was $16500. If I use KBB, I work backwards into $28250+T&T.
I believe I got a good deal, but they made me work for it. I was there for 4 and a half hours total, the negotiations took an hour and a half...and was pretty intense. At the end I told them it was either come down $1500 or we part ways, no hard feelings. He went into the the Gen. Sales Mgr's office and 15 minutes later we had a deal. It was a stressful experience and unfortunately, I would not say that I had a good dealer experience in any way.
How good of a deal was Orland Park Infinite? I was quoted $33340 for G35 with Premium, Sport Suspension, Winter Sport and trunk mat. MSRP was $34340. Was either deal better than $1000 off MSRP?
Thanks
Yes
I could have fought for every penny, but I'm getting too old to care about a few hundred bucks. I wanted to pay 34k, they wanted to sell at 35k, easy compromise. Besides, they had 25 cars on the lot and I wanted Black on Graphite w/ Nav, which they didn't have, so they had to transfer one in. A good deal is relative to your situation. I'm happy and waiting for my Friday/Saturday delivery!!
Later,
Don
Thanks again.

Thanks in advance!

By far the easiest car I ever bought. These guys are good. No hassle. No hidden deals.
The car is FAST.
Teri01, I bought an Emerald Green sedan with leather and sun roof last April from Kirkland Infiniti and we just love it. I've never had a car that I've liked this well. It has made driving fun again.
I am a long time reader, first time poster. Thanks for all the information on this discussion board. I have finalized the paperwork on my new g35 sedan to be picked up on Sunday (that is the day the my private buyer is getting my '01 Maxima.
I got the Blk/Willow Leather g35 with:
Prem
Sport
Aero
Mats
total: 32,086.
I think invoice was like 31,100. So it looks like they make about a $1000 plus holdback. But I am happy with the price and I think it is the cheapest I have seen posted. The dealer in Tampa and they have been pretty good. I will give a final update on Monday on how it went. By the way, bring in these price posting, it really gives a good leg to stand on when it comes to price.
Cheers
if you have any information to share (experiences, specific dealers, salesmen etc) i would greatly appreciate it. I too am looking for a deal on a g35 and looking to finance.
thanks for any information.
