I just received my A/C yesterday. My original plan was to get one new, but the factory was being dumb and wouldn't make it the way I ordered it (I did not fit in one with a sunroof so I did not want a sunroof). The other day i found one like i want that only had 5,000 miles on it and it was an 08. I got it for below $20K but all the add-ons brought it up some in price. try looking for one online. maybe you'll find one like you want for a little less $$$$. just a thought. (oh ya- i was still able to get it as a "new" car cause it was still an 08)

I got my 2.5 w/ prem pkg on 3/15 and i payed 26.2 out tha door so i'm thinkin u should go with the 2nd dealership provided the out the door price is around ur 25k mark.

either way, u are doing much better than i did, just a few weeks ago.. g'luck on gettin that black one, that's what i wanted but tha dealership sed that they can't find ne black ones with the prem. pkg around their area and that if i wanted they'd get me a precision grey one ASAP (it was like a few days) and that's wat i settled for but i've grown to love it.

Yeah mang, go for a base 3.5 instead a 2.5 w/the premium package. You'll thank yourself every time you drive it.

However, I guess you best bet is to get the best deal you can from dealership #1 and then call #2.

lol, well my car is a feel good toy. I drive an 07 Kawi ZX6R if i really feel adventurous. Also coming from driving a Pontiac this will be a nice upgrade to get the extra options.

I've had my time doing the whole racing scene and now I like the feel of luxury interiors lol. Unfortunately I can't do both .

you still shoud really consider the 3.5 base model. you will have many more after market options in the long run and your racing scene days may not be over just yet

I got my 2.5S A/C, blond int, with sunroof, convenience package and kick plates for $24,312 out the door. This was back in August of 07 and according to Edmunds.com, I got it at invoice price. I had to drive 100 miles to get it though, since no in the Atlanta area wanted to give it to me at that price. Read up at http://www.carbuyingtips.com/ they have some good pointers and the spreadsheet they have is pretty good, just plug in the numbers and it will tell you the final cost and how much a month your car note will be.

well I just got it, pickup is on thursday. got the car for 22,975 and out the door was 25,434. I'm pretty sure I got a good deal on that. With my loan rate of 5.75% I'm only paying $220 a month for 48 months. I will post pics on thursday after I pick it up. Thanks for your help guys!
