My wife and I just went to a dealership in North Olmsted, OH. And
They wanted $38,257 for a 2013 sport 7 speed. I almost laughed and
Let the salesman know that Nissan just made the price drop for the
2014. I showed him the article and said that we wanted the newest
Model and to test drive before buying. Needless to say, i'll be shopping
elsewhere if they try to rake me over the coals again :gtfo2:.
What would you guys pay out the door for a 2013 sport with 7 speed auto?

Tell them you will pay the 2013 for 2014 invoice price + few hundreds on top. I bought a few new car in the pass, only pay a $300 over invoice.

There are 2 cars that are 2014 auto base (with a few minimal options kick plates/ mats/ etc). And both come in at $27899-$28600.

I'm assuming that is the price and they will not go lower. But WOW that is a great price.

That is a good price. I paid about $28.3K for my 2011 base coupe auto. That was $150 under invoice at the time.

Thanks for the advice. Where do I find the invoice price for
the car? I'm only seeing MSRP prices online.

Any honest dealer should show you the invoice price, just ask for it. If they don't then I would be warry of them. You can find this info readily available on Edmunds.com or Cars.com

That is MSRP for a 2013 - $38,240 (Base/Auto/Sport/Delivery)
Invoice - $36,009
Average price paid (edmunds.com) - $36,101

Just wait for the 2014's to arrive and they will drop the price on the 2013's to blow them out. Based on the pending price drop everything is overpriced by $3000.

According to a hard-*** sales guy that "stepped in" when I wouldn't budge on my OTD offer, he said that Nissan doesn't "blow these cars out" like they do the others. I laughed at him. To his face. He wasn't pleased. I didn't care. Made no deal.

I just think it is funny how the prices on these cars vary so widely that it is always difficult to ascertain the real value. It is quite deceptive. I think it is going to the 7AT and the sport vs touring or sport/touring models that really trips people up. One dealer wanted more for a base +sport than I paid for my 7AT +Touring. It was laughable. But it'll catch you off guard if you don't have the years/prices/specs all memorized. You might make an offer that they'll be more than happy to accommodate.

Do you by chance know the 14 invoice for base+sport 6MT? (maybe with rear camera? :D)

does anyone know y nissan dropped the price soooo much? Is it to compete with the camaro v8, mustang GT, BRZ and FRS prices?

is a new design for the Z in 2015 a sure thing now??

13 is $2496. I'd guess 14 will be a close markup.

Didn't see the 2014 invoice published yet, but we can extrapolate.

Estimated invoice pricing for 2014 (MSRP):

Base - $28,094 (29,990)
Sport - $2,628 (3030)
Camera - $648 (790)
Destination - $790
Fees - $343

Total - $32,503 (34,943)

Touring package was reduced by $2550 vs $3130 for the base.

I think they dropped the prices to boost sale. Since launch in 2009, sale declines around 30%.

With sales numbers that low im actually suprised our Z's are still being manufactured !!!

Me too. They've killed the Z before. As much as a raw deal the price cut is to people who just bought a 2013, Nissan needs to move more Zs or we may not see another one.
