I want to get you guys's opinion on this before I buy. I got this offer of 28500 for a 04 enthusiate Z with mats, kick plates, splash guards. Is this a good deal, or can I ask for lower? Thanks!!

I paid $26,700 for my 03' Enthusiest 6MT plus tax.
That was $500 over invoice (sticker was $28,800)

Yes. Thats a good deal. Tax is about +- $2,000. With $28,500 out the door, you are actually paying +- $26,500 for the car and all the options. If my calculation is correct, you are getting a very nice deal.

So that it's easier to compare and when people are talking about prices, it'd be best if they itemized the price of the car + options, dest charge, license fees, and tax.

Fees vary depending on location and sales tax most definitely does. It's right now 9.1% here in WA state on cars (at least in Pierce County, not sure about King). Oregon has NO sales tax.

GEEZUS! 6% is looking lovlier and lovlier here in OH.

I just picked up my 03 DB 350z 6spd yesterday evening, Sticker was $29,234, I got it for 28,000 Out the door w/ 100,000 mile extended warranty.

PimpShiFus

wow, i meant 28500 not including tax and license. But, whoever got 28000 for an 03 Z with taxes included really got hooked up!!

Mr. Potato Head is right. That is not a very good deal. In fact, I dont think thats even close for a good deal. I'm ordering the 04' enthusiast 6 speed also. The price the dealer gave me is $1,200 off sticker...and thats with me not even started to bargain. Sticker was +- $28,890. So at the very least, I am getting it for +- $27,690. Still waiting for the dealer to get the exact price for the 04's.

P.S.
Keep in mind that I am located in SoCal, where the Zs are somewhat more expensive than other states.

PimpShiFus , I am a newbie who live in L.A. area and also looking for a 04 or 03 enthusiast too. Would you mind to tell me which dealer gave you $1200 off MSRP please? Thanks in advance.

Which options did you have? $29,234 is greater than the MSRP + destination charge.

I'm assuming $28K is BEFORE tax and license, correct? How about destination charge?

salphonso

I have floormats, splashguards, cargo convenience, aluminum kick plates, and trunk mat, also they threw in a 100,000 mile warranty. Destination charge was 540, atleast thats what it says on sticker. They came off sticker 2500 and then after tax it was around 29,000 sorry I put 28000 and did not realize it till I checked the post this morning.

cwerdna

Since I don't know the sales tax % and licensing fees over there, it sounds like your price + dest charge came out to $26706 before tax and registration. Right? If so, that means you paid $286 below invoice. Right?

Did you have a trade in?

meatwad79

wow i got raped...34 out the door for an enth

sicilianoNYC

31 out the door for me for my white 6 speed enthu with kick plates, floormats, trunk mat, cc package, and splashguards

PimpShiFus

That's incredible! Invoice for Enthu is 26219, + 540 Destination = 26759, + 1000 profit = 27759. So before you even started to bargain, you are already getting 931 over invoice, and Zs are more expensive by where u live??! Are you for real? Please post your final price. You must be really good at bargaining or something.
p.s.
I assume 27690 is without any mats, splash guards, kick plates. Otherwise it is just absoulute unbelieveable.

salphonso

No trade in, and tax is 9% here. The exact price was not $29000, it was 29,208.76, I am not sure what invoice is but I put 14000 down and am financing the rest. I was to lazy to get out the paper work to look how much i spent exactly so i just rounded off . But that was my final price to the penny.

Here we go again.

Sorry guys/gals, I really find these types of threads humorous. That is a good deal? Like, who cares?

It’s like; if you paid more than me you got screwed. And no one wants to admit someone else paid less for the same car they got. You paid $500 below invoice, I paid $500 over invoice, one pays $1200 under MSRP, someone else says; oh yeah, well I paid $1201 under MSRP. You got screwed, I got screwed, so let’s all get screwed! You guys are funny.

I‘ve never had a vehicle so sweet. I was ready to pay full MSRP when I bought mine. Frankly, I was surprised they accepted my offer. And I was just happy I did not have to pay full MSRP.



Okay, my .02…

If you are happy when you drive off the lot, then YOU GOT A GOOD DEAL! My bottom line, this car is a true joy and I consider myself blessed to be able to own one.

Regardless of what any of us paid, we ALL got a sweet deal. The Z is a BARGAIN at any price.

Peace to all. No offense to anyone.

cwerdna

That's a good deal IMHO. Invoice price w/those options + dest charge is 26992. If you had paid invoice + dest charge + tax that'd have been $29421.28 not including licensing fee. Good job!

If only I could get one so cheap... sigh...
