I bought my Nismo from a Carmax last year. An 09 with 9k miles on it for 32k. My sister works for the company so I was also able to get a discount on top of that.

Yea it is being sold from Carmax - and trust me, the non negotiable price is some I dislike as well.
If they were asking closer to 33k, I would take it.
I'm just really worried on taking a bath with this thing if I need to sell it in a year or two - of course I don't think I will need to but just want to be safe.

The car sold..... These cars move so fast. Maybe I should have moved on it .......
Hopefully it's for the best and I find the Nismo of my dreams.....

Update on this car - it was returned but the person who bought it (it was bought soon after I passed on the car).

The guy who bought it and then returned it (Car Max has a 5 day return policy) said the car's transmission was damaged....

I may go look at it again - there was nothing wrong with the trans - maybe he couldn't handle the high catch point of the clutch?

Back in the dealer - I think I may pull the trigger ... its a brand new 2009...... No one has had any problem with this year outside of the oil cooler right?
