Are you asking me about the $37,500 price? If so, I simply called one of the dealers and asked them to make an offer, while mentioning some of the deals that other forum members had already posted. He came back with $37,126, no questions asked. I didn't eventually buy it from that dealer, as he was pretty far away and could not end up getting the exact car I wanted.

So I took the email with his confirmed price to a local Nissan dealer and demanded that they price match it. We wrangled back and forth for a while but settled on $37,426. In the end, I gave them $200 to transport the car from another dealer about and hour and a half away, plus $100 as a compromise (they originally wouldn't budge at anything lower than $38,500).

Again, I just presented a number of cases from this forum of negotiated prices and patiently refused to budge (except for the extra $100 in the end). It was a funky story because the car that they originally went to pick up for me wasn't exactly what I wanted. So they found me another one that had what I had already bought, plus the illuminated kick plates. They just gave me that car for the same price.

Got my PG Touring 6M with Sport, Nav for $36,999
 

Hi everyone

I spent days trying to find this config in Platinum Graphite or silver with black interior in the Philly region.

I found it in silver about a half hour away and the best price I got was $38,100. I really wanted the PG and also wanted to think about it so I told them I would get back to them the next day.

After reading other peoples buying experiences on the forum and locating a PG with the same config using Nissan's excellent inventory search on their website, I emailed the dealership which was a little over an hour away with an offer of $37,000.

It was the last day of the month which we all know doesn't hurt. Plus I was turning in my leased Mini, which meant no trade to complicate things and also told them I was approved with tier 1 credit by the other dealership. I laid it out as simple and painless as I could. A simple yes or no scenario.

I got an email the morning or April 30 and the sales manager countered my offer with $36,999!

Well, I called him about 5 minutes and told him to prep the car, which I picked up later that night!

I not only got the car I wanted, I got it at a great price. I could not have done it without the great posts from all my fellow Z enthusiasts, and some good timing!

Good news! Connell just refunded me $200, which was added to the car to pick it up from another dealership. Since I eventually purchased the car at Connell, I recouped the surcharge. So $37,226 was the final price for me.

I highly recommend the dealership. Even with the complications with my purchase, I am very happy with their service. :tup:

congrats jgabriel66.. enjoy the z experience !

Thanks Makri0007
 

the funny thing is that growing up in the '70s, my dream car was the Datsun 280z. By the Time I was old enough to drive in the mid '80s, I couldn't afford a used one.

I bought my first Porsche Boxster in 1999 and my second in 2002. Then I went through the married SUV and Lexus phase.

But nothing has brought a smile to my face like when I drove off with my childhood iconic love!

I'm even happier that I waited for the 370 since it evokes the essence of the 240 and 280 better than any incarnation since.
