How many of you bought your car right off the lot?

I was just curious as to how many of you were able to go to the dealer and drive off the lot with your brand new G35 in the same day. I have read several threads showing that a bunch of you waited or are currently waiting for your cars. I checked my dealer's inventory and found the exact G35 with all the options I want. Will i be able to get it on the same day? Or does everyone have to wait a few weeks? Just curious. (If this is a stupid question i'm sorry, Im new to the forum).

I took mine right off the lot on a friday evening. I was at the dealer getting an oil change done on my "old" G35x sedan, and saw a Pearl White Coupe.....the rest is history!!!

i signed papers on mine about 10 mins after test-driving it. it was used and had been purchased from a wholesale auction the day before, and i already knew of all the options it had (everything). it was love at first sight!

I did, but I did a lot of negotiating via the Internet prior to the drive up.

The entire transaction took less than 2 hours - from drive in to drive out, no problems. I shopped inventory online, asked pointed questions (mileage, receipt date, invoice, trade value of my car, etc) then drove up and closed the deal.

No regrets at all.

I also bought mine right off the lot. I researched the internet, found the exact one with all the options I wanted, drove up to the dealership, and negotiated a price. It all took about 4 hours.

I bought off the lot, but only because the car was the EXACT car that I wanted. Right color, right options. Also, I got the price I wanted as well, after some fierce negotiation. I wanted certain color, price and option list and was prepared to order one or travel a few hours to get exactly that. It just made life easier when I found it locally.

Pretty much the same thing I did. I negotiated 99% of it all via email/internet. The only thing I "haggled" with was the the exact car I wanted was sold, but they had the one I wanted except it came with sirius. So I got that thrown in since they scewed the pooch.

Got mine in March 03. It was on a boat cruising towards the Jacksonvill Port. Put down the deposit and waited about 2 weeks. Paid sticker. Besides the birth of my daughter is the was some anxious two weeks of my life.

I looked at the dealerships inventory online and found 2 that I wanted to compare. Called them up and they pulled them both out and parked them side by side for my comparison. I picked the one I wanted, test drove and bought it from the lot within about 3 hours (although I didn't pick it up until later that evening, so they had time to remove the protective sheets and detail it). VPP meant no price negotiation necessary

I took mine right off the lot. The timing just happened to be perfect. It was the exact car I was looking for.
