My G Has Arrived!!

The G I was waiting on finally came in 2 days ago. Signed papers and picked it up yesterday!

'08 Black/Black Sport 6MT
Premium
Painted Splash Guards
Trunk Mat
Trunk Cargo Net
Tinted Windows

MSRP - $36,635*
Invoice - $33,553*
Paid - $33,890

*Does not factor price of Tint

When I originally negotiated, the car was supposed to have illuminated kick plates but of course it came without them. I didn't notice the IKPs weren't on the car until after I left the dealership, so I called back and they agreed to tint my windows instead.

If anyone wants a referral for the best salesperson in Dallas, PM me. She is the most reasonable and puts no pressure on you at all. I talked to many dealerships, and no one came close to the service she provided when I was shopping around. She has worked for Infiniti for 16 years, has an excellent reputation, and a good chunk of her customers are repeat and referrals. I simply cannot praise her enough.

I also got to know another excellent salesman in Houston, so if you're shopping in that area also PM me. He worked very hard to work a deal for me, but didn't have and couldn't find a black/black 6MT for me (the one I bought was the only one I could find in TX, and I had to wait 3 weeks for it to arrive).

I absolutely LOVE this car. My sister has an IS250 and the G blows it away in terms of having character and being so damn fun to drive.

Good deal or bad deal?

Hi! I'm a new owner a G35x! Just purchased yesterday. The dealer told me this was a great deal but I'm not so sure. Either way I'm happy to be driving in my new car!

2008 G35X AWD Sedan
Ivory Pearl w/ Wheat interior
Navigation
Premium Package
Cargo Net

MSRP: 40,025 USD
OTD price: 36,900 USD (including tax, tags, freight, processing fees, etc)

Is this a good deal? Thanks in advance.

Invoice for that set-up is $36,600. To pay $300 over invoice (Including TTL) seems pretty good.

Anybody know if the Conquest Cash is still available for July and what are the July Incentives?

Thanks! From what I was told, the $1000 rebate for current owners ended at midnight last night! Don't know if that was a ploy for me to buy my car last night but it worked.

Oh yeah, one more question. When people say try to get w/in (+/-) 500 of invoice. Is that before TTL or after?

Seems like a good deal. I did the almost the same numbers on mine when I got it in February. Mine was $39,995.00 and I paid $35.900.

35.9 including TTL? What car did you get?

It's good to hear I didn't get scammed!

I think most people mean before. TTL varies greatly from dealer to dealer and from state to state.

For example, here in Indiana we pay 7% sales tax on the difference between sales price minus trade in value. For me that came to over $2000. In some states, they pay sales tax on entire amount and other states do not collect sales tax on cars (at least that's my impression.)

i got pretty much the exact same car from JBA Infiniti in Ellicott City, MD. I forget the exact number but it was 34,xxx OTD (was just shy of 35k). basically the same car except mine was Blue Slate. just picked it up today, they said they've been struggling to sell them so the manager gave them a just today to move as many as possible.

Great Deal

I'm about to pull the trigger on my new G35X. Internet quote from one of the two dealerships here in town:

G35X
Blue Slate/Graphite
Premium
Nav
Sport
$37350 TTL

I admit I was a bit surprised at this quote out of the gate.

They are also offering repaired hail damage cars for another $2000 off. I looked at a couple and I couldn't tell, but I was still a bit leery.

As someone that has already worked out a price (USAA Member Pricing = Invoice + $500) with my dealer (Infiniti of Tyson's Corner in Virginia), I'm really interested to see what other fees and charges various dealerships have tried to inflict on you after the price of the car was already settled. What kind of last minute maintenance plans, tire replacement plans, etc. did they try to sell you.

I've got a 2008 G35S 6MT (premium, nav, spoiler, splashguards, trunk mat, trunk net) arriving tenatively on the 25th of this month and I haven't been asked to put down a deposit yet. I'm waiting until that point (or whenever he asks for the down payment) to go over the list of charges to see where they plan on stiffing me. So far we're at $37,788.08 for an OTD price.

Basically, what kind of charges should I keep an eye out for?

Guys, there's 1.9% financing (or $2000 rebate) and between $500 - $1000 customer cash on the G's from now until September.

These deals can be combined for a max of $3000 cash on a Sedan. Everyone should be targeting at or under invoice with this kind of cash rebate.

Where are you seeing these deals? I checked infiniti.com and I only see the 1.9% APR...which is great, but so is $500-$1000 customer cash

Edmunds has them posted on the incentives section. All dealers have the info as well.

You get $1000 for owner loyalty. Then you can choose 1.9% APR or additional $2000 cash.

Interest rates are fairly low anyway so $2000 cash is probably better. At this point, any deal that is not extremely close to invoice is not a good deal IMO, even if you opt for the 1.9% apr.
