I think I fall under the VPP Plan C. But my question is, right now folks are getting the 370Z at invoice or slightly below invoice from some of the posts I have read without VPP, so are we really saving a hugh amount below the invoice amount or just a little? The way I understand it, it works out to be maybe a couple hundred off of invoice is the Plan C and D price. Of course if you are a NNA corporate employee or immediate family member then you get 4% off of invoice and no delivery charge, and that does equate to a significant amount.

I am in so cal. and the tax rate is 7.75% so my price according the the Plan C or D is approx the MSRP, but out the door, including tax, lic. fee, etc. So for example a touring, sport, 6spd works out to be about $38,500 out the door for me which is similar to the sticker price.

Just a little, plan C & D are not meant to be the very best deals as stated before. You can negotiate a better deal, within a few hundred dollars, these days if you are willing to put in the time. Or, purchase in no time flat and use the rest of that free time driving. :driving:

I agree. The deal I got from John Frederick at Ed Martin Nissan in Indianapolis was really good. No hassles and a very fair trade value for my car. I couldn't get near the deal in Cincinnati. I did qualify for VPP and may have paid a few dollars more but I'm happy.

BTW, Since picking up the car on 2/14 I have received 2 letters and 3 phone calls from the dealer checking to see if I was happy with the car. One thing that my come out of this economy is a return to customer service.

MarcusMIA 03-17-2009 12:00 PM

I just tried to fill out the VPP form. The 370Z is not listed as being eligible. Only the 350Z is present.

Just so you guys know.

WShade 03-17-2009 05:38 PM

- Eligible MY09 Nissan Vehicles: All released MY09 Vehicles except GT-R and Versa Sedan 1.6L Trims

That includes the 370Z. What form are you attempting to fill out?

MarcusMIA 03-17-2009 11:31 PM

Once you pick your company it brings you to a page where you pick the vehicle that you intend to lease or buy, so you can get a claim number. The 370Z is not among those choices. The link is in the first message of this thread.

ADmaster71690 03-17-2009 11:44 PM

I'm currently attending the University of Michigan - I saw the University of Michigan on the VPP list. Does this mean I could get VPP for attending the college? Or do I have to be an employee to get the VPP? Sorry if this is a newbie question...

It does not matter what vehicle you choose, just pick the 350 and take your claim form to the dealership. Happy shopping.

another piece of information relevant to this thread...

My preferred local dealer was actually excited to make the sale through the VPP program as they will immediately receive another Z from Nissan as all sales made through VPP program do NOT count against their allocation.

Allocation can be a big deal for a dealer if it is a high profile vehicle that tends to sell quickly.

A replacement car and 5% profit is a very good deal for the dealer. If he sold to you a car at invoice without VPP he would only make his 2% holdback and lose an allocated car. Looks like a win/win all around.

I didn't see this on the first post. An actual calculator for business associates plans to give us an idea of what deal VPP gives. :icon17:

alvinmathew88 04-06-2009 05:40 PM

What kind of pricing are people getting with the VPP on the 370z?

Also the calculator had 2k additional discount on there, where did that number come from?

pencilnink 04-07-2009 01:41 AM

put a zero in that, it's just for adding incentives/rebates.

Just for the record; that piece of the form is for survey purposes only...it in no way restricts you to a particular vehicle or to a purchasing method.

fuct 07-06-2009 01:37 PM

Hey everyone im not sure if this was mentioned yet but i found a link to the company search list.

Consumer Vehicle Purchase Program

I suggest you use this as I found several of the companys on the first post are no longer on that list... ie Nalco or 3M

Hope this helps

Yeah, do military members benefit from this? Or anything associated with the Government at all?

I worked with Eddy Machete at McDavid and Stephen Baker at Sterling McCall. I bought at Sterling McCall because of the better trade-in offer. I chose the Monterey Blue Touring under VPP D plan pricing. The MSRP for this car is $35490. The invoice price is $32173. The VPP D Plan price is $32765.88. (side note- Sterling McCall had to dealerswap for the model/color I wanted. VPP restrictions prohibited them to add any items that were not on the manufacturers invoice which turned out to be the illuminated sill plate and window tint that was added on by the dealer. So I got those 2 addons "free" which Sterling McCall had to absorb in the deal.:woot:

I also contacted 3 other dealers (Baytown Nissan, Baker Jackson South and Tom Peacock Nissan). These dealers said no VPP pricing and were still asking at MSRP or $300 below MSRP even after I told them I had two firm offers of VPP. They either said that there is a hidden cost or told me I was mistaken. I would not recommend Baker Jackson South as they were the least honest about their business practices (telling me a particular car was available, then I find that it is sold to charity just before I get there, but of course, there are these other models available that I can purchase....etc:icon08:)

I commend the two salesmen I dealt with at McDavid and Sterling McCall for being upfront and straightforward. :tup:

I hope this helps future 370Z owners in the Houston area:driving:

Thanks, I lived in Houston and this is very helpful information. I was planning to Tom Peacock Nissan but after this I would go to the others dealers you mentioned. Thanks a lot.

Spec Jay 07-30-2009 09:37 PM

so would it be cheaper for us to purchase with VPP or at invoice price?

Z370man 08-09-2009 06:05 PM

Very Cool ! !
I wanted to find something like this for ordering my Nismo - someway that I would not have to pay an 'Adjusted Market Value' markup. So I need to difinately look into this, do you know if it applies to orders or just lot cars?

Thanks
Mark

FuszNissan 08-09-2009 07:21 PM

It can be applied to ordered cars.(once it hits the dealers lot) It is a voluntary program, so you may run into some dealers that won't honor the VPP price on a Z. Just shop around.

vcdporn 08-14-2009 02:56 AM

can dealers sell a car below the VPP price? i asked about 8 dealers and some of them give me a lower price than VPP allows..they even say it includes destination, etc...the price difference is about $800

Absolutely they can. I took my VPP deal and ran. I would rather be driving than sitting in a dealership negotiation over a few hundred dollars. But always get the best deal you possibly can.

FuszNissan 08-14-2009 11:50 AM

VPP is a program that allows dealers to sell vehilces below cost and then get reimbursed through Nissan to make up the loss. VPP pricing is fixed. A dealer can sell you a car below VPP, but they won't get reimbursed and it will just cost the dealer money. So it just depends on the dealer. Hope that answered your question.

Carsalesman1 08-26-2009 10:45 AM

If you live in Sacramento and want to buy a 370Z at $500 over invoice, PM me. You'll end up at the same price as a VPP deal and I can save you a lot of time, because I work in the fleet department.

FuszNissan 09-29-2009 01:51 PM

^^ That would cost more than VPP...fyi

uhh VPP is pretty much invoice isnt it?

koeppelnissan 10-28-2009 01:11 PM

VPP pricing on the C & D plan should work out to just below invoice (about $200 less or so) Since the dealer has to submit some extra paperwork to collect money, many dealers don't bother or won't do it on certain cars. VPP deals are easy for the dealer and we do get some money back from Nissan, so we always try to make VPP deals! keep that in mind if you're close to NYC

alexdell 10-30-2009 01:51 PM

A newbie here. I've been waiting on getting the new 370z when I heard about the 40th Anniv. next year. I'm hoping to be able to get the 40th Anniv. using the VPP discount. I really doubt any dealer would let those go at VPP prices. Hey KoeppelNissan, how about it? I'm in Staten Island.

Alex

koeppelnissan 10-30-2009 03:02 PM

We'd be more than happy to offer VPP pricing on any Z, just let me know when you are ready to order your new Z.

In his defense, he was asked specifically about the availability of such pricing at his dealership. I guess a PM would have been more fitting, if forum rules were to be followed.

koeppelnissan 10-30-2009 03:43 PM

I have the check in my hands for sponsorship. I'll stay away for a few days until it is received by AK. Sorry. Am I being set up, though?
