Profit Nissan Dealers try to Obtain from each major sale. $8000 to $10,000. Typical profits range from $5000 to $7000 with Savy buyers. You can push them down to making $4,000 profit if you are a really good negotiator.

What??

We make 1000.00 if we sell the car at invoice. Which I would love too.

Published Invoice prices aren't the invoice prices dealers are purchasing the cars for. Such as Edmunds, Kellyblue book, etc. These are third party sources, that base their estimates from other sources than the actual dealerships. Maybe statistics on the average selling price customers pay, plus any other stats that are highly inaccurate.

True Dealer Cost is very confidential and one can only see in the accounting books of an auto dealership. Because you would have to take into consideration many other factors such as financing leverage, how many cars sell, how many are ordered, etc.

Nobody can obtain the 'true' dealer cost..not even the sales employees.

That's the very challenge. The whole idea here is to provide estimates and information for people on this forum to use as a tool. The more people are posting, the more trends you see in OTD and selling prices. I plan to purchase a 370z Touring with Sports Package in the LA area and will post all my information; on what selling price they agreed to, how much I financed, at what APR, terms, Tax rate, Dealership fees total.

I just had to run out and order mine in the begining of jan 09. Before i had ever seen the car in real life. I was a blonde **** hair away from buying the 350 nismo, when i found some real pics and info on the 370. I had to have it, so like a dummy i went in with LARGE cashdown payment that did nothing by the way, ordered it and after TTL and the other bs. I walked out with no car, none made in the package i wanted PW/7AT tour/sport for 40K, monthly payment of 320. I know you can do better, i just couldn't wait so i had to pay the price.

LoL, that's like my credit card rate.
Anyways the Edmund, kbb, etc. sites invoice prices are fairly accurate because they get the numbers right from dealerships employee's or other people in the business. They maybe a percent or two off but that's about it. There are other factors that can help the dealer sell under invoice price but they are small not on the order of 20% below.
