Buy option: Cost is $33150,
For Lease option: Price Cap Cost jumps to $36150....
This results in monthly payments (with $1500 in fees etc) to jump from $380 to $450
Does any one know if I could use "outside" lease company to finance this...
Sure you can use a 3rd party to lease the vehicle out to you. Check out leasecompare.com as one example of an "outside" lease company. The money factors and residuals may not be as attractive as what you may find with IFS (Infiniti Financial Services) - but the cash offer discounts may offset that. Good luck with the acquisition.
Damn, for 309k you should be able to get more than 1 Infiniti G
msrp: 42,430.00
deal: 37900.00
they are taking my two last nissan maxima payments which total to 700.00 and all that im giving down is 719.00 which is 1st mo. and taxes and tags. my monthly payment before tax is 483.00. 39 month lease with 10,000 miles a year.
should i jump on this? or try and get them down some more, please respond soon as i am ready to give my 500 dollar deposit.
thanks,
Glenn
Thats the best I could do considering not many left with most of the dealers...
Interesting questions you are posing here...
1. If you have a reputable mechanic that you know, (with the current owner's consent) I would recommend that you take the car to the mechanic to have them inspect the car thoroughly - a good mechanic will give you an estimate of what sort of repairs that you are going to have to make immediately as well as down the road (i.e. in six months or so...).
2. All the aftermarket features you listed are nice, but they don't necessarily add to the overall value of the car's private party resale value. How good of a quality was the installation - again, a mechanic maybe able to identify any shortcuts that may have been done to just get the job done on an install rather than getting the job done right.
3. Check out KBB.com or the TMV calculator here on edmunds.com to determine the value of this 2003 G35 with 118K miles. Is this a coupe or sedan? Does the seller have the original sticker he can show you?
4. Since this is a high mileage vehicle, I would recommend that you ask the seller to review the service records.
5. You may also want to get a Carfax report pulled on this car to see if there are any reported incidents on this vehicle. Remember Carfax is NOT 100% accurate since not all incidents maybe reported to them.
Good luck with the research and let us know how it plays out for you.
I just returned my BMW last month and really miss their "Free maintenance plans"...
Thanks.
There were no extra fees. I worked with North Houston Infiniti. It was a pretty straightforward transaction - there was very little haggling.
Thanks again.
Even with the $8k-$9k off MSRP, the 2008 G35x sedan is selling for $25k or less at the auctions. So, even after huge rebates, you take a 8 grand hit, as soon as you sign on the dotted line!
Cheers!
I waited to see what the new January incentives had to offer and am disappointed that they are not offering anything better. How can I as a consumer be enticed to purchase what is officially now last year's model at the same price that people bought it at last year? I was hoping dealer to cash incentives could be combined with the low apr deal. I would have jumped on that.
Shopping in November, the best deal I received was:
G35XS - Premium, Sport, Cargo Net, Painted Splash Guards
$34,400 with the 0.9% Financing.
(Edmunds calculated Invoice: $35,860)
Still waiting for an offer I can't refuse...

Thanks for all the valuable info. here.
Just settled the deal on a new 2008 G35x with Premium, Navigation and Splash Guards.
Was an easy deal to make, and got a decent trade (separate from G35x purchase price) for my wife's car.
Paid $32,265 (around $8K off MSRP). No financing. Had dealer switch tires to Michelins. Wife drove several other cars like '08 Lexus G350 AWD, '09 Acura TL AWD, and the Infinity was her choice after taking into account price. I think this will be an awesome car for her.
thoughts/comments on the purchase price of $23,500??
my thoughts are this:
the miles originally bugged me, but the pre-cert ext warranty of 6yr/100,000 miles somewhat eased my worries on the mileage. but these cars seem to be dropping in value pretty steadfast. so i feel $23,500 is a bit steep. since i offered $23,500, i came back to them with a final offer of $23,000.
Here's how I'd look at it:
$18k at auction
+ $500 for reconditioning, detailing, etc.
+$2200 dealer profit
+$1300 to certify
= $22,000 + tax
Honestly, I wouldn't go a penny over this amount.
Here's an example for $21k:

Another example for $19k:
http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail.jsp;?tracktype=usedcc&searchType=22&paId=13- 6850385
for the record, the two previously mentioned cars were not sport models and one of them was a manual transmission.

Those 2 cars are base cars...seem the only option is sunroof, no premium package.
