2012 370z: Good deal or "are you out of your mind?"
 

2012 Nissan 370Z 2dr Cpe Manual Touring

what would be the reason for low mileage? demo car?

thats a brand new car. price is a little high

it has nav though.

So-so deal. Not great. Not a total rip off.

Keep shopping...

I paid $39,900 for mine (sport, touring, nav, carpets, mudflaps)- but with an auto (adds $1000). You want to be right around invoice-that price is sticker.

Honestly, if I was going to buy a car again, I'd think about going through TruCar. I ran mine through there after I had already bought mine and the 3 dealers that responded were all right there on their initial offers-one was a few hundred under invoice They can be a little aggressive, but if you're ready to buy and just want a good deal it might be the way to go.

That's all good, but keep in mind if a trade-in is involved, it muddies the overall deal.

use truecar.com also. You will get the car very close to invoice or invoice, I used that with american express zagg which I believe are the same company now.
You can print that price out and go to other dealers to start negotiating also. There is still a little more to haggle to bring the price a little lower.

yea truecar.com is a nice site to use.

by the way guys, if you buy the car not from the dealership, do you still have to pay tax at dmv? i mean, can't you ask the seller to write as if he gave the car for free and you just give him money? :D

LMAO at the banner on the site.

Beksnice, yes you will have to pay sales tax. The DMV, knows the value of the cars...so the old sell it for $1 doesn't work anymore.

FuszNissan, what if you buy car from the dealership? You have to pay tax @ the dealership and then at dmv again? =/

No, every state is different.

Missouri - you pay sales tax at the DMV.
Illinois - you pay sales tax at the Dealership

You don't pay twice. ( just once, but where depends on your state)

What about Cali? ;d

I have no idea, but you can probably contact Danny@Fontanna I am sure he can answer that question for you.

In California you pay tax at the dealer, and they file it with the DMV. Most states operate this way.

That Z in the link is a fully loaded car, thus the price. But that price is MSRP. If that's the car you want, go to the dealer and offer them invoice + $200. Invoice on that car is 39,500. Start from there.

OP, I ordered mine from that same dealer but didn't deal with the same sales guy. I got mine for invoice + $200 and it was factory ordered. Let me know if you want to deal with the sales guy that I worked with to get mine ordered.

Once you get yours, make sure to visit here.

Thank you, this is what I wanted to hear. :)


Sounds good. I'll do more shoppin around. Don't know if I want a brand new one yet. Just thought I ask all my noob questions now and everyone on this site has been great and not so much annoyed at these questions yet.

More like ~$39,200 depending on what came with it.

Since you're closer to Sunnyvale, you should check them out. I believe they're sponsor here as well.

I'm assuming it has the illuminated plates, and that dealer is charging for all carpeting...which is pretty scumbaggy, but whatever.

Yup, touring + 6MT + nav + illuminated kick plate + floor & trunk mats will be around ~$39,100.

I don't think it's the dealer. I just think the problem is the sales guy. I've worked with another sales guy and he was the only one that gave me the lowest price on the car I wanted to order. One sales guy from San Leandro Nissan gave me a quote for $45K on a $42K (MSRP) car! He said that didn't include tax and everything! Talk about scumbag!
