2013 Nissan base 370Z price
 
Figured this might help someone. I bought the base 370Z back in March. I bought the base model since I was going to replace the wheels anyway so I was going to pay the extra $$ for the sport package. Every deal is different but the car I wanted was at another dealership 150 miles away so I proceeded negotiate with a local dealer since I didn't want to drive to get the car (but would have if needed). I paid just shy of 33 grand "out the door". Dealer invoice is 31 grand, the kickback is another 900 or so which can be negotiated off (why pay extra for something you don't have to pay?). I didn't pay to have it delivered (dealer did a dealer swap), that was covered by the dealer. When you add up the tax, title and delivery, it was a couple hundred dollars shy of 33 grand. Deal took about 10 minutes to negotiate and Nissan also had 0% financing as well with no extra costs for those that "qualified" (which is just about anyone). Could I have done better? Maybe...could have been worse. Dealer probably made a couple hundred bucks (probably 200) on the deal and will be compensated by Nissan at year's end. To the dealer, it's all about moving cars. Hope that helps.

You realize though the cost of aftermarket wheels to match the size and weight of the forged rays is like $2000 don't you? Then you have to spend another $1000 plus for 19" tires. The invoice on the sport package is only $2600 and now you don't have a chin spoiler, LSD, euro shocks, synco rev match, rear spoiler, huge upgraded 4 piston front, 2 piston rear brakes that will cost you over $2000 to match and I think that's it. For $2600 sport is a no brainer since all that stuff will easily run over $5000 part by part.

Invoice sport is $33,600 with $1000 rebate here in NE ohio.

Dealer made $200 on a $31,000 deal? That's a 0.6% total profit.

Plus if you parted out the sport wheels/tires you could have fetched at least $1400 on the forum to out towards your aftermarkets. Base wheels go for $600-$800

SRM as well. If the dealer told you wheels were the only diff, you should go back and throat punch him. SP is worth every penny.

I got my 2012 brand new under similar conditions. It was at a dealer about 70 miles away. The traded with them to get it for me.

I got mine WITH the sport package for just over $33k. Plus they gave me $400 over the KBB excellent value for my 350z trade in.

Any deal that takes minutes to negociate is going to favor the seller. That's negotiation 101.

Believe me, there's more to Sports package than just the wheels and it's worth it. Sadly, for me there wasn't a sports package in the color I wanted within 500 miles so it really wasn't a valid option.

Was that 33K out the door? My deal was pretty quick because I had it written down on a piece of paper. Dealer invoice - minus holdback and they get the car. Tax and title etc was a couple grand...

That's certainly not a terrible deal out the door but I think you could have probably done better. Any time a dealer jumps on an offer like that, something isn't right. I don't think having it written down makes a difference one way or another.

Either way, as long as you're happy, that's all that matter. Bottom line, you got a Z and that's a good thing. :)

Oh I know, I wasn't going to repeat what other members threw out. CG's on the ride regardless. Still a good deal.

Same here. Ordered from Japan, 17 days later it was at my door :ughdance: long 17 days but worth it.

Congrats on the new Z

But I would have waited/ordered to get the Sports Package.

I paid $29k for a base auto in 2011. They had a manual sport for $30500. They had some 2010's left over for about $2k less. Although this was in 03/2011 so prices may have changed.

I got my PW 13 with sports $34,100 OTD last Oct here in SoCal. Although it is a lease, but that was the agreed upon price before I said I wanted to lease. They were not too happy when I flipped the purchase to lease, but I got that figure on paper before telling them.

MSRP is alot higher now then it was in 2009.. I bought my 09 for 28,500 new :) Guess the foreign exchange rate has increased dramatically (dollar to Yin)

It's down to 2009 levels again :) Last year was terrible.
