I am looking at buying 2008 M35x with technology and possibly advanced technology package. I can get 0.9% financing for up to 72 months through the dealer. What do you think a dealer can sell the car for if the financing is done through them with promo rate like this and what do you think one can be bought outright for without promo financing?Any help is welcome.Thanks.Jake

Get a Consumer Reports vehicle price report. It will tell you exactly what the dealer is getting paid in hold-back and other incentives for your area.

I paid straight cash $48K out the door for a completely loaded (no spoiler was the only option I didn't get) 35x 2008.

Keep in mind, it will be easier to make a deal when the 2009s are on the floor.

I was passively in the market for about 2 wks before buying my '08 M35x. I had the color I wanted on the base model & had them down to $36k.

Then, I stumbled upon a car that was a promo lease w 3500miles on it that had Nav & Camera. I ended up getting the latter for $35k OTD. I feel like I got a pretty good deal bc I pitted 2 or 3 dealers against ea other.

Good luck. Let us know how you do.

I have a verbal offer over the phone from a dealer that has numerous 08s in the inventory for $40k out the door to include nav w/ tech package but not with advanced tech. This was just a cold call over the phone without any negotiation. It is 08 M35x brand new. I am thinking that $35k may buy it, maybe even advanced tech package if I wait till Dec 31...Otherwise, I am looking at 06s with 25-35k miles in $21k range with at least advanced technology package and Nav included.Thanks for response. I will keep you updated on what I end up buying.

Digiboy, did you get a mobile entertainment for the back seat viewing?

Just last Saturday I bought mine. It was a demo with 5k miles. M35x with Nav$38,800. All dealerships are extremely motivated. Being the end of the year and the fact that we are already past the middle of the month, I would think this is the best time to buy. Good luck with your search. Hope you find just what you want.

Local Infiniti dealer here is advertising $12,000-14,000 off MSRP on all brand new 2008 M35/45 models.

Yep. 5 hour drives with a 3 year old in the back are wonderful now. She's watching a movie, we're up front listening to music.
