Agreed, in these times I wouldn't settle for anything less than invoice. I paid $600 under invoice and didn't even have to fight for it, I'm sure I could have squeezed them for more if I really wanted to but I was being nice. 3 years ago you would have been paying $1K over invoice but not now. If you don't like haggling just find a dealer willing to sell it on the VPP program.

^ i agree with that guy. i worked with 10 dealers before choosing the one i placed my order with. this one dealer kept it real. i got the car a couple bucks under invoice. other dealers quoted 300, 600, 1000 over invoice. give me a break, i don't care what car it is... everyone's struggling and at the end of the day, it's a nissan. some of these dealers act like it's a one-of-a-kind car.

at the end of one of the emails i got the manager said "so what's your offer? keep in mind this is a limited production sports car and there are no rebates". i shot back with my offer and a "please keep in mind nissan sales were down 36% in april compared to last year". even at invoice, they make decent money. not only that, but if they're nice enough to work with me, i'll gladly refer people to them - customers they otherwise wouldn't have.
