living in the big city, there are advantages to buying from a larger dealership...I know this because I work for one...we sell about 400-600 new cars each month, and we're a high volume dealership...we have more leg room to play with when we negotiate...it also means that we have a better selection to trade with other dealerships...this means that, based on what you're telling me, the dealership you went to didn't have any Z, and the other dealership is not giving them the Z, that's probably because the other dealership wants a Z back from your dealership in the trade, but since your dealership doesn't have one to give back, they don't want to take anything else (like a Maxima, or Altima..etc...) back....so in the end, you're not gonna be able to get a car...it may be harder for this dealership to locate a Z for you because all the other dealerships will want a Z back in trade, thus, they may have to wait until they get a Z in stock as trade bait before they can trade for you.... One more thing about smaller dealerships, when they make a sale, they have to make a certain profit before they will accept the deal...whereas, larger dealerships can sell the vehicle below invoice and still keep their average up... when I say larger and smaller dealership, I meant by volume...sometimes, a larger dealership (in size) may not sell as much as a smaller dealership (in size)...so when I speak of large and small, I speak of units the dealership sells...
