Default New Owner 08 Silver Alloy







Quick story about the purchase. We were in Alabama Christmas shopping, when we reached the state line I knew there was a Nissan dealership in Oxford so we decided to stop by there & see what they had. All we found were 3 07 Tourings & this 08 Enthusiast. Im not a big convertible fan & always wanted a Coupe with an auto transmission. I know I know, im not a real sports car junkie, I know. Well they had this one at 32,000 with 11 miles on it. Somehow, which I really dont know, the dealership owner decided to knock 3,000 off because he thought it was an 07 & not an 08. So we had to jump all over that & ended up paying after taxes, title, & licensing, 30,097. Ya gotta love the Nissan people in AL.

You still ended up with a decent deal. I paid 29,800 for my 06.

Ya its a bare Enthusiast with an auto transmission, sticker price was 32,820 but the boss man took 3 off cause he thought it was an 07 just like their 3 07 Roadsters.

Auto is good for certain cars, but its a sin if you buy Auto for your 350.

Trust me, if you learned to drive stick, you would agree.

I said the same exact thing until I learned how to drive stick 2 years ago.
