Wouldn't you want to get a 2014 and then swap the bumper? It's cheaper than a 2013.

I hope it works out for you. I'm not sure dealers will make it much cheaper than a '14 as there's a good chance they have already paid for their '13 inventory and will be in no rush to lose money.

Might be a better value to hold out for a '14 if resale value is important. But since you're swapping out for an old bumper, don't know how much of a concern it is to you. Good luck either way !

Good move. trying to sale as much as they can before the 15 comes out. I'm sure the 15 will jump right back up.

So if you bought a 2013 model and kept it with fairly low miles, you can probably do a straight across trade for a 2014 model? or even get cash back?

Nissan has been dropping the price on their entire model line, including Infiniti. I think the GTR is the only one holding out lol. M56 isn't cheap either. But for the most part, Nissan went aggressive since the beginning of the year pricing their cars.

Nissan may be thinking the GTR is still a value for consumers comparing it to Porsche, Ferrari and other cars in that class. Maybe when the C7 comes out and if it cuts into their sales, they may re-price it.

The re-pricing of the yen has changed it's exchange rate by over 20%. So if they can still keep selling GTR's at the current price (not that they are really selling a lot) they will be making a decent profit on the GTR.

I paid around $37K OTD for my '13 sport last Oct. and I aint even mad. Im glad I can afford to drive the car I wanted for a long time. and seriously life is way to short to fret over a couple grand wasted. Enjoy what you have and life is that much sweeter.

I doubt they'll do anything. You paid what you thought was a good price at the time. The current prices changed due mainly to the Yen weakening vs the dollar. Do you expect some kind of refund?

Yes I do want some type of refund. Maybe not the whole amount but something. Think if the people who bought their cars just a week ago it's kinda bulllshit. I paid what I thought was a good price for a $37000 car not a $33000 car. Iv only had my car a couple if months and only have 600 miles on it now its worth $4000 less just because they lowered the price on the new ones. Add that to normal depreciation and my car has crap value...
