The tax is whatever the sales tax is in the area you reside in. DMV fees are typically $250-$300.

The tax is not where the dealership is located in ?

No, it is based on the locale of the address where the car will be registered at; i.e. your home. I work for Nissan; I speaketh the truth.

I thought you were going to wait for the '08? Whatever deal you are getting, PM me on it; I may be able to do you one better.

Oh yeah forgot about your PM haha will reply tomorrow!

edit: I only said that because the dealer said 08 was gonna have 3.7L engine and added HP, but he mistakened it for the 09. So now it's back to the 07.

Yup, no changes for '08 other than some color stuff (dropped DB, Redline and LS; San Marino Blue stays, Special color is Nogaro Red.).

What we'll be getting in '09 (maybe not even until '10) is still up to speculation. You'll like;y get more accurate infor here on the forum long before any dealer will know what they are talking about, lol.

Just PM me what you're looking for in an '07 and I'll get you a quote.
