Really selling their Z?
Has anyone really sold their deposit, place on line or their car if they got it, or is all this hype about $2000 to $8000 over MRSP just bull... I've watched a few eBay auctions and the high bidder is always someone with 0 or negative feedback.
Just wondering.
FYI: nissandriven.com has a post about trying to sell your deposit.

I think there are many dealers with cars on their showroom floors that will sell at MSRP (see my white touring in chicago post). Sure many will charge extra & people will still buy, but there are people selling at msrp. I would say that it is all hype, but many are falling into the hype & pay extra.

I think I would sell mine for a 5K profit. I would just order another and wait, use the 5K for some home improvement. Would not even consider it for $1,000.00 or under.

what you have to ask yourself is why would a dealer sell it at MSRP when they could sell it for more money? Considering how many people have signed up for these cars for months in advance, people will be willing to pay over MSRP to have one now. Not only have they been sold on eBay, but there are private sellers out there selling them as well. A wholesaler here in Atlanta has sold 2 of them for $10,000 profits.

Dealer holdback is between 2-2.5% of the invoice amount (roughly $600-900). If a dealer sells it off their showroom (somewhere between $2000 and $5000 over MSRP), as opposed to pre-selling it (MSRP), they stand to gain quite a bit more than what they would pay in interest for the car to sit there for a week or two, which is probably longer than it would be there anyways.
