Buying 2007 Grand Touring 350Z (Questions)
Okay, my first post in this forum.
I have been searching for new cars and have settled on the 350Z because I believe it has the perfect balance of performance, features, and styling for the money. Other cars I have looked at include the 06' Evo, 07' STI, and 07' Corvette (little expensive when optioned out, close to the price of a Z06
)
I have been calling various dealerships in my area and have been offered invoice price for the following:
2007 350Z Grand Touring Coupe
Manual
Silver Alloy
Burnt Orange Interior
Options:
U01 - Nav (Which forces you to get S01 - Side Airbags / Head Curtains
M95 - Splash Guards
P93 - Aluminum Kick Plates
L92 - Carpeted Floor Mats
N93 - Cargo Convenience Package
T94 - Carpeted Trunk Mat
The MSRP for this combo is $39,625. After talking to the Sales Manager for a while he agreed to do invoice, which is $35,900 according to him.
Good deal? Should I try to get below invoice?
I also wanted to know if the Rays make any noticeable difference in acceleration over a 350Z with standard wheels?

with the options on edmunds, it added up to an invoice of 35466 without the 615 for destination. with that it comes to 36081. getting it for 35900 i would jump on that in a heart beat. i am going to have deal some more or go to a different dealership. i am not going to pay 37525 when i can still get 1000 - 1500 off the msrp.

just got back from my dealer and i am pissed. with the same options, i got the price to $36500 which i think is good but, when it came down to what my payments will be i got wasn't happy. with my trade in of 14500, 3500 down they were trying to give me a 425 payment. i own nothing on my trade in and it does not make sense in my head. would think the payments would be a lot lower. i walk out taking back my 1000 deposit i put last week. guess i am going to a different dealership.

they were giving me 6.99% and it was for 60 months. when i do it on nissanusa.com in the estimate monthy payments it comes out to like $360. so i don't know where they are coming up with 425. from the beginning told them i wanted a carbon silver with black seats and only the basic options, no nav or side airbags. a week after i put a $1000 deposit my dealer tells me they can only get me a white with orange seats and it has nav and side airbags. i can't see why they can't just order me a carbon silver grand touring with the stuff i want.
