Am I getting a good deal on a g37s?
Hey guys I went to check out a 2008 G37S 6MT 54,560 miles. No accidents, last owner was a 38 year old lady that traded it in for a Q50. I currently have a 2005 g35 auto with 136k miles absolutey clean. Has a minor accident in 2006 just a fender bender. No lights on the dash, every service up to date. So heres the deal what do you guys think about the offer the infiniti dealer gave me. They are asking $22,876 for the g37 and they are firm on that. NADA shows clean retail as $21,700 but they are asking more because manuals are extremely rare in the Florida market right now. I talked them down from $24,900. They are offering me $7500 for my trade in. So out the door price came out to $17,423. What do you guys think? Is it worth it?

Economics is a funny thing. Is it worth it to you? You have to look at it from a point that makes YOU happy. Are you, knowing how much work it takes to earn a single dollar, willing to spend $17000 of those dollars on this item that you want?
If you're asking if its a good deal in terms of an "investment", then absolutely not. You're gonna waste a whole bunch of money on customization, fuel, maintenance, etc. and will never recoup that, and the cars value will plummet with each passing day. However, if you really like the car and feel like you like it THAT much ($17000 much), and you plan on using it for all of its intended purposes, then hell yeah. Yolo, beeotch. |

Well you also gotta look at the fact that, yeah, there will always be someone selling one cheaper, and there's nothing wrong with paying a fair price. I get what you mean (everyone wants a deal), but me knowing nothing about what g37s are worth, I would go out on a limb and say it's a fair price. Not bad, not great. The mileage is great tho, so... Probably worth it.

The dealership called me today saying someone wanted to buy it today but they couldn't because I had already put a the $500 on the car for them to hold it for me while I make up my mind. At the time I asked them to come down $500 more on the value of their car and they responded "If the deal isn't right for you just back out". So I'm guessing they won't have a problem selling the car at the price. They seem to be very cocky.

Play hardball if you want. There's nothing wrong with saying you found a better deal and are re-thinking the car.
I think it would be worth it to get out from your car while the miles are where they're at, but you have to decide whether or not it's the car for you. I'd personally do it, knowing what I paid for my 2006 g35 just last October. |

Its an extremely clean car, But I just can't get over the fact they want $2000 extra because 6MT's are rare. Thats not really a reason. I only have 3 hours left to decide. I guess im just going to have to eat that $2000 and get it.

That is absolutely a reason. Supply and demand, my brotha. Others want it, they got it. I paid over retail for a first gen Honda insight simply because they're rare and get insane mpg and people want them. People still sell those cars for THOUSANDS over kbb. Kbb is just a guideline, not a rule, my man. Just go get it.
