I am new to this forum but wanted to post my experience purchasing a brand new 2004 G35 AWD in case it is of help to anyone else.

I am located in Northern Virginia. The MSRP was $38320 and included the navi, premium package, wood trim, splash guards and trunk mat with full spare. Dealer invoice is $35040.

I paid $34,999 plus tt&l. This was the full price including the dealer processing fee of $299 that this dealer charges - so the pricing without the fee was $34700. Also included in the price were free oil changes for the first two years or 30K miles - whichever comes first.

I financed it with Infiniti's 2.9% financing over 60 months. I had the option of leasing it over 39 months using the money factor, residual and bank fee that Infiniti is supporting but it just made more sense for me to go the outright purchase route given that the effective rate on the lease would have been 4.1% and then one would pay the bank fee of $550. VA charges the full sales tax on the capitalized cost irrespective of lease or purchase.

I feel that I got a good deal especially given that the dealers in Northern VA are not known for heavy discounting.

I would post the dealer's name but I am not sure if that is against the forum's rules.

 

Sounds like you got a pretty sweet deal to me. I got mine for a few hundred less through a VPP program and the 2.9% financing, from Rosenthal Infiniti (assuming that is where you got yours since there are only 2 dealers, and that is the largest) in June. Couldn't be happier with the car, or the dealership. They have a very reputable service department too, from what I have heard. Hope you enjoy.

jdog, yes, I did buy it from Rosenthal.

Glad to hear that their service department has a good reputation since I anticipate all maintenance being done at their shop until the warranty expires. Rosenthal is also the dealer that is closest to where I live.

Not sure how a second thread got started on this forum addressing the same subject. If the mods could combine the two threads, it would be appreciated.
