The dealer quoted me for my trade-in, and the 370Z, and I'll break it down in this post. I'll also note the serious mathematical errors that the dealership made.

Vehicle Price: $41,735.00 (This...

I'm talking to Teri with the Napes facility right now. They seem down to earth. They said they would be willing to deal over the phone, and the fact that the other dealers needed to see the trade...

No, actually, they showed me the chart, the scores, even the low ones had an LTV of 110%. I wish I knew what chart you were looking at.

So, there's no benefit to have a co-signer anymore.. They've negated the purpose.

Also, NMAC doesn't have a Tier with 90% LTV, so I don't understand where you're getting that. NMAC, Nissan's...

NMAC, If you have a co-signer..?

Do they go by your credit, average the two, or do they go with the best score between the two?

I have a co-signer who's FICO score is over 800, but mines sub 619. They keep talking about my...

Jacksonville, FL - Dealer?

Does anyone know a dealer in Jacksonville, FL that wants to sell a car? Seriously, I've gotten almost no response at all out of Coggin or Mike Shad.

Are they selling so many cars they don't care...

Yeah, most people wait to switch the oil due to saving money. A very high quality synthetic costs quite a bit. Since the engine doesn't require a break-in to begin with, there are no "imperfect"...

Back in the day, it was recommended to wait 3000 miles before you switch to synthetics. That's no longer the case, as current engine manufacturing technologies do not require you to break-in an...

I wouldn't use that stuff, it contains Molybdenum Disulfide.

It can eventually clog your oil system in general.

NASCAR uses it because their cars don't last long anyway. It's like a person...

I was quoted $2,483.59/year for 100/300, 100/300 and a 500/deduc through Amica. Now I'm not sure if he meant $500/6 months, or $500/month.

All State also gave me good above mid-tier coverage for...

I swear by AMSOIL 100% Synthetic. I change my AMSOIL every 25k like the bottle says it's good for, and it comes out looking just how it went in. No drops in fuel efficiency.

That's for my current car.. I am getting quotes for the 370Z..

Everyone is quoting me 449/mo, or in that range. Geico, and Progressive so far, I haven't checked others but will.
