People who buy the brand over and sustain good payment history get blue book. Maybe that's just a texas thing??? Actually when I traded my 3.5 altima. I recieved $2000 over blue book.

Interesting.

I paid $2000 below invoice. I just happened to get lucky, it's not the norm. I was offered 2K more in trade in than the other dealer I went to too.

Like I said. If you're a recurring customer and have good credit. They give pretty fair deals. If you have poor or fair credit, are crossing brands and are hungry for a car. You will get the "No Gel Special".
I don't know about what people get across america so I can't say its the norm or not. But what I can say is... if you are on this forum? And you are purchasing or trading? Talk to guys that done it first and I'm pretty sure you won't be a No Gel victim @ the stealership. Lots of great advice in here.

And No one should settle for black book. PERIOD. There's always a dealer that is willing to use the blue book. Don't believe the hype and be patient when purchasing. The only flaw people have is they want everything now. Do it with patience and the right info.

You'll be good to go.

As long as you keep thinking to yourself they are good deals. Then all all is good and you can be satisfied. I also have spotless credit but understand the dealership needs to make money. It is no different than any other business.
