For some of us, it just doesn't matter. I've owned two red cars, two blue ones, a purple one, and orange one, a black one, two green ones, a "burnt umber", and a yellow one. In most cases, the deal/equipment on a particular car was what mattered.Sahandman wrote:One question, why do you want a car with any color? dont u want a color that u like? are u in that much of a hurry that ur willing to drive like a red or a blue or a silver or a color u dont like?
They shouldn't.penpen-commander wrote:locating the car isn't hard at all, but they'll ****ing charge you an arm and a leg for the "shipping" fee.
That's at least $300 under invoice. Did you get that in writing? :-)muskrat wrote: He tells me that the car is 15,700 with 1300 in taxes... That's much ... much less than the dealership with the better service.
Is that price in Canadian$? Or is the car loaded? The only way I could find a sticker with $18k was to have an SL, CVT, Conv Package, Sunroof, Sat Rad, ABS, audio upgrade.rwanttaja wrote:and decided on the Versa. The salesman checked his sheet, and told me the car was $18,000. I told him I'd give him $16,500...
He came back a few minutes later with a counteroffer for $16,900, and I took it.
When my wife and I went window shoping last weekend, we found that 2 dealerships here were marking up the Versa over MSRP by adding pinstriping and other highly inflated "Dealer added" stuff.voltronguy wrote:

What was the actual configuration you got?
SL with CVT, including destination charge, sales tax, and "Dealer Marketing fee". Got rid of the latter.voltronguy wrote:Is that price in Canadian$? Or is the car loaded? The only way I could find a sticker with $18k was to have an SL, CVT, Conv Package, Sunroof, Sat Rad, ABS, audio upgrade.
That is insane! But he is right, someone will buy it.gr81 wrote:One actually have an SL, CVT w/ convienience for $18,300 before taxes. I forget prices, but scotchguard, pinstriping, and automate were listed as options. Dealers stance was, someone will buy it.
You got that out the door for $16,900? What did that make your actual purchase price? Sounds like you got a great deal.rwanttaja wrote:SL with CVT, including destination charge, sales tax, and "Dealer Marketing fee". Got rid of the latter.
Ron
15700 + tax is about 500 below cost something sounds fishy. Are you sure you are talking about a sl with conv. they may be making money elsewhere on the deal are you financing ?muskrat wrote:Wow , quite a lot of posts on this. I also see that my experiance is familiar to many of you. Well, last night right before i'm about to leave I get a call from the salesman telling me that the car will come with CVT and the Conv. package. I tell him that's fine but whats the final price. He tells me that the car is 15,700 with 1300 in taxes... That's much ... much less than the dealership with the better service. I could haggle the whole thing to death i'm sure for at least another 500 min but I think I'm going with this deal since I need a car ASAP. I'll post pictures when i get it.
Sahandman, just like rwanttaja stated. The color doesn't matter to me so much as options and price.
thanks everyone for the stroies and responses.

It looks to be around $700 or so. What I have trouble with is some unscrupolous dealers adding a bunch of crap at the dealership and charging thousands more for it. They can keep the car when they do that. Unfortunately, a lot of folks will buy it and complain the whole time they own the car about how they got done wrong. Well, if people would refuse to buy it, that would change. Paying sticker or just a little under is one thing, getting ripped for thousands over MSRP is just the buyers fault!
if your dealing with nissan 112 i can help you. I know everyone there. If you want to drive to utica NY which is 280 miles i can get you one. Email me at [email protected] with a phone number if you need help.muskrat wrote:I didn't think much of it since I looked at other prices on the website. Since two persons have mentioned it I'm now wondering. I went to this dealership as part of a plan offered by my credit union. The payment is therefore cash. i'm not buying any ext warr. or other stuff so if they plan to make it up on that they're sorely mistaken. Also, when he told me he was getting the car he was going to charge 500 above list for the cost of getting it delievered..... now I'm confused as to where the profit is going to come from. Although it could be part of the deal with the credit union and he's getting a kickback for referrals. He told me that i wouldn't get a better deal anywhere else and maybe that's why they're not really working to get my car fast enough?
