I just leased a new QX for 2500 off sticker. It wasn't easy, my local dealers only get one vehicle in every week or two so supply makes it unnecessary to negotiate.

That is good to hear, nice work, I know they are selling very well, beyond Nissan's expectations. It is sure a hot ride!

It's actually an amazing vehicle. I have owned high end BMWs, Lexus, Porsche etc and the QX sets the bar very high. At 110mph the big QX is as quiet as my Lexus LS460, the technology from nav to iPod integration is the best I have seen. The interior fit and finish matches the Porsche Panamera. The power and torque matched with the 7sp automatic direct injection makes the big QX feel and drive like a sporty sedan.

This vehicle is simply amazing and with two kids it doesn't get any better IMO :chuckle:

It is an amazing vehicle, but in all honesty, all Nissan SUVs are quite impressive, but the 2011 QX56 is certainly the cream of the crop!

I just purchased a fully loaded qx56 for 2250 under sticker, and that included a very fair price for my trade in. All in all I was happy with the deal. :)

I got all the features! Theater, Deluxe touring, and Tech packages. Sage Green color with graphite interior. It had been on the lot for a while so that helped with the negotiation. :mike

Sage is my favorite color on the QX! Nice choice, that is a really upscale and sophisticated looking color, I prefer a lighter color interior, but Graphite does look nice.

I heard they stopped making the Touring package with the 22" wheels. Bummer. I now need to find a set of those 22" wheels if anyone knows where to find some let me know!

We preferred wheat also, but graphite was what they had, so we had to make a concession. I will say the graphite Semi-aniline leather is beautiful in person, and as long as it does not get to hot, I'll be more than happy with the choice. Also, the cooled seats really do cool so that should be good on those hot days.

Also, hadn't heard a about discontinuing the 22" rims. I have them, and they really look great on the car, that would be a shame. :gotme

Two people at my Bay Area dealer, supposedly something to do with weight issues. They may be wrong, just found it odd that two of them said this and they haven't received 22's since....

Hmmmmm

Sounds like a line of BS. I have heard nothing and they show the 22" option on the Infiniti website, had it been chained they would have pulled it off of the Infiniti site.

Makes me think back to March when I was working with a dealer on my 2010 Armada, they tried telling me that Nissan was totally done building Armadas so I should buy rig away to get the color I wanted.......well, I purchased about a month later from another dealer and got a better deal on my #1 color combo......gotta love those dealers!

I got mine for 1K above invoice which puts my discount exactly to 4K of MSRP. I talked to several dealers and one of them agreed to let it go since they had the car on the lot. I am in the MD area.

Let me know if anybody is in the MD area looking to get a QX and I will let you guys know the dealership andthe salesman I worked with.

That is a fabulous deal on a high demand vehicle (relatively speaking of course). Nice work! It always helps to work with a dealer that has the exact vehicle you want. Enjoy the new ride!

An interesting location for price expectations, which is based on actual sales in your area, region and also shows nationally, Truecar.com This site isn't owned by any manufacturers like the "leading" sites are today. It was started and is owned by venture capital investors, and they don't track back to any car company. Great details on vehicles and it sure shows the ability to pay less than MFG Sticker.

I also suggest a small paperback book, phenomenal information on negotiating: "Don't get taken every time" by Remar Sutton. Saved me thousands on every vehicle purchase, well worth 5-10 bucks and a few hours reading at most...

I ordered mine yesterday and it will arrive in May. I got $1500 off MSRP, not great in comparison to the folks on this thread but better than the $500 he originally offered and at the end of the day, I'm happy with the deal I got. I also received a nice value on my trade-in...2003 Toyota LandCruiser.

The QX will be for my wife but I'm excited about it. We ordered a 4WD, Grand Touring, Theatre, Illuminated Kickplates, Rear bumper protector, cargo mat/first aid kit and the color is Moonlight white and graphite interior with center console middle row seating. Not sure I'm going to be able to wait until May to drive it.

We will be using it to tow a wakeboarding boat. Anyone else do much towing with your QX?

That is a good price, especially considering you ordered exactly what you wanted. I could see getting a great deal on one the dealer has sitting on the lot, but order outs are a different story.

Go to USAA.com and go through dealer services. You will have to register and it will give you a price below invoice and will even have dealers call you. You do not have to have an acct at usaa!!! I just purchased a 2011 Armada for 30,615!! No strings attached!!!

Just did a random car, you can get a 2011 SS Camaro with leather, 6spd auto flipper pad shifting for 35K. Dealers WILL NOT tell you.

Welcome to NICOclub! Just curious, what was the MSRP on the Armada you purchased? Enjoy the new Armada! :dblthumb:

Hey All. Just decided on moving forward with getting the QX56. Going to go Saturday to finalize the details.. I asked for an initial quote, so I had something to work with when I go back in. Basically, looking at the 2011 AWD QX56, Black on Black, with Theater Package. MSRP on that is $65,060, and I was quoted with $61,600. I put invoice at around $59,888. So their first offer to me was almost $4,000 under MSRP and only like $1,700 over invoice. What am I missing here? Seems like a really good price off the bat for this highly sought after truck.
