well is that supposed to mean there are only 2 like that on sale in america RIGHT NOW? im just not exactly sure what the quantity "2" is supposed to indicate.

heres the deal, like i said there is one i found that is available somewhere i will not say....mentioned the dealership to my dealer today but havent heard a reply nor have i been able to get in touch by phone yet tonight.....

would it be crossing the line to call that dealer where the car is before my own dealer does??? im kinda just curious if they ACTUALLY have it or if they have sold it

My take on it is that it tells you how many have been made in that particular configuration... Up to Nov 2011.

Mine told me 82.

2010
Base + Sport
7AT
Mag Black
Black Interior
Non-Nav

Hey Sara, I just got a 2012 Sonata Turbo for a daily driver and went to my local Hyundai and they couldn't locate the one I wanted color, gps moonroof, turbo etc. Then I called 3 dealers and one had it being delivered that day! I said screw the local dealer locator and went and grabbed it myself!

I think we are all pulling for you on here to get exactly what you want so do whatever you need to get it!

Goodluck! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you! I will be going to Nissan this weekend I can see if they will do a dealer locate for you too... Won't hurt

-Chad

crossing what line??? you are not obligated in any way to buy from the dealer that had you place an order for a car no longer in production. Makes me think they did it on purpose to try to lock in your business

yeah i know. this has nothing to do with my dealer and obligation though it has to do with how far i will go basically for freaking seats. if i get this thing you gotta remember im 7K under my goal down payment right now getting it now instead of june! handing someone several miles away almost 2500 bucks including transportation is screwing my monthly payment over bigtime. yeah i realize im in a huge hurry and a bit of a time crunch but i am VERY smart with money and i refuse to make an irrational decision tonight over the phone

How much of a stretch would it be to go to that dealer and get it, vs paying to have it shipped to you?

oops sorry! i meant crossing the line with money (look two posts above)...i didnt know you were talking the calling the dealer post. my bad! what i meant by crossing THAT line was i dont know how the trading process works and i didnt want to complicate crap if they were trading (possibly getting a hungry dealer on the phone trying to get me to buy it from them for way more). sorry for the confusion

Pm Vince I believe his profile is linked to that stat sheet. If I'm correct from when he and I spoke, what it gives you is production numbers shipped to the US for sale in the US. Now, you have to remember production of basically all 2012 models was low due to tsunami. I know others who have entered their vin number (you search for the thread as I don't remember what it was orginally called) have been able to find Nissan stats as far as when the vehicle left manufacture arrived in US delivered to exact dealer they personally bought their car etc., so it seems pretty accurate. I believe the op may have been called "production stat checker" or something but not sure.

Jofro it says thru-2011 because he has not updated the title but has incorporated 12&13 models as you can see. Like I said it gives stats on how many we're produced/delivered for US sale.

called the dealer that has the car. over the phone they arent budging on the price which is over 1K what the other dealer told me on my non existent ordered 2012 (lol). it was way too high and i just cant do it if they wont come down. we will see what happens tomorrow when they talk to my dealer; they are willing to possibly trade but they are kinda holding on to it tight. it might slip through my fingers but hey i do want the car that i want but there comes a line i wont cross financially.

If they have what you want... There is not crossing the line, but at the same time, don't chump yourself over a small amount compared to the whole value.
