Help! About to buy Used 2009 Nismo.

Gawl128 · 07-20-2012, 08:13 PM

Hey guys, new to the forum.

I have been doing everything I can to get into a 370z Nismo. I finaly found a (local) White 2009 370z Nismo w/ only 5k for mileage

. The dealer is asking 34,800.00. I am trying to get them down - there is "road rash" on the front right tire (I noticed it after I took the video), and a small scratch on the hood - even with those things noted they're not moving

.

My concern is that it is a 2009 and I am paying 35K for 3 year old (about to be 4) car...

I honestly feel I should be paying about 2,000.00 less. Am I crazy?

What are your thoughts?

Thanks, in advanced, for all the help. Hopefully I can get into a Nismo and become a much more active member here.

They were selling for 35K back in 2010..... Just buy a new one if you are going to spend that much.

It's just that extra 8 grand or so is pushing it aliitle to far for me.

8K? You should be able to get one for invoice + 0%

Gawl128 · 07-20-2012, 08:46 PM

Maybe I should just keep shopping. I've just had such a hard time getting one....... and I am really tired of dealer runaround. Have one in front of me for once is nice.

Are they still giving 0% on 2012 models??

dmhenderson · 07-20-2012, 10:21 PM

It's because you're insisting on a specific model and color. The dealership knows they have you over a barrel.

That's pretty low miles for 09.

As far as I know yes. Even if they don't, it is probably 1.9% at the most

I just picked up my 2011 Nismo for 35k
