Geat deal! Especially with the option packages you got. Suprising that your new dealer actually had 2008's instead of 2009's.

 

they still have tons of 08. unfortunately, a lot of dealers do. they don't have many colors with this config (x, premium, nav, sport, etc), but they have a bunch still. they aren't getting many 09s until they clear out the 08s from inventory.

 

Is everybody getting book value for their trade-ins right now??

 

I was mainly surprised that such a new dealer would have gotten any 2008's, not that there are still 2008's available. Although, here in SoCal there aren't too many 2008's left. I bought mine about 6 weeks ago and had to get it from Northern CA.

 

i got book, or slightly above book (depending on whether it was 'good' or slightly under) on my trade in. great deal + trade + 6k = 24 financed on a brand new G!!!! and thats with ttl

 

08 G35 Premium / Nav

Garnet Ember / Graphite int

MSRP 38,380.00

Paid $35,184.56

Discount $3,195

Let me know what you think.

I leased it and got the payment I needed

 

08 G35S Premium/Nav/Rear Spoiler/Sport Package

Garnet Ember / Stone int

MSRP $41,212

Paid $30,698

Could not beat the price I think, I'm very happy with the car/deal.

 

i got a really good deal
i got a black on black 2008 g35 S sedan with (Premium Package,sport package, Performance Tire and Wheel Package, Sunroof, Four Wheel Active Steer Package, Satellite Radio)

all for 31,000 plus tax and all that stuff =$34,500 cash (all at once)

 

How are these other prices so much lower than what I paid? I got a little over $3k off and it seems that others are getting close to $10k off

 

You just have to get the dealer to part with them.

Just Picked up my G35X BLK/Grap w/ Prem/Nav/Splash/Cargonet/WheelLocks 35101 with .9 percent financing for 60 months. Monthly payment was cheaper than taking the 32101 and 4.9 the best financing I could find.

 

Awesome deal -- congratulations!!

Could you please tell the dealer name/location? I am trying to get a G35X with the exact same configuration as yours, and unable to get the dealers go down below $36k.....

 

Metalblaze:

I think you have to target the right dealers in Chicago - I think that's where you're from. My deal:

G35x - premium, navi, splash guards, cargo net, wood trim. MSRP 40,680. Negotiated price: 32,680.

I probably could have pushed a bit to get it down, but the dealer I ended up with was a bit skittish on matching the quote. Fortunately, it was my local dealer so I could play a few cards like, "This is the fourth time I've gone to your dealership first. It would be a shame if you let this one get away like the last three." and "You know I'd prefer to buy from you given my 2 other cars that I'd bring here for service as well." They gave in, but I had to pick up the car on a weekend so they could hide it in the stack of other purchases. I don't think it was a line, because by delaying the sale they could lose it. They seemed pretty surprised at the price I gave them, and said it was below their cost for the vehicle. It may have been a cook/lake county thing, but they charged me the right tax....

I used kbb.com's internet quote request to get the first number from another dealer, and proceeded to shop it around via email. It was such a pleasant experience. I never talked money with anybody in person, in the sweatbox. I met one sales guy so I could decide on the car, and we corresponded via phone and email after that, and only email with the other dealers.

The BEST part was sending an email back to another dealer - "sorry you didn't decide to provide a quote via email. I went with another dealer that did, and will use this in the future."

 

Thanks a lot for your reply -- much appreciated. I just finished requesting quotes from chicago land dealers, and waiting for their response.

Unless I am wrong, the Infiniti incentives have expired as of 12/01, and I am not aware of whether there has been any change in the December '08 incentives -- I really hope they combine the cash rebates AND low APR -- that would be real sweet deal to pass up!

 

I'm in NY a decent distance from you, It looks like the incentives stayed the same for December. I've beeen holding on since mid October. I finally convinced myself I didn't think they were going to get any better, Even though a search of autotrader.com of new g35's showed over 400 within a 50 mile radius of me.

 

where in NY? i just purchased my '08 last night, picking it up Saturday due to me being to busy with work to be able to get it before then. got a good deal on my trade, and car. just under 33k
