How close to invoice are people seeing?

I'm currently in the negotiating process with my local dealer (and checking the prices I can get from some others if willing to travel) and so far it's looking about like this for me:

G37 Journey with Premium, Sport and Nav package...$44k OTD (which works out to about $1700+/- over invoice)

G37 Journey with Premium & Sport packages...$41.5k OTD (which works out to about $1200+/- over invoice)

These deals are for cars they have on the lot and not ordering. Credit is not a problem, nor is a down payment...

Is anyone realistically getting below $1000 over invoice on their deals? If so I will keep pushing...They have worked down to these levels fairly quick which has led me to assume there is more wiggle room but in doing research I have not seen a lot of invoice purchases so just looking to see what the general consensus is on how low they're going at this point...

Thanks,
Chris

I got $500 over invoice.

I played dealerships against one another by starting w/ Infiniti of Fairfield; they got the ball rolling by offering $500 over invoice. From there, call around and say "I have a standing offer from another Infiniti dealer willing to go $500 over invoice on any in-stock G37. Can you be competitive w/ this?"

Some said yes, some said no. Obviously, the more open you are to colors/options, the easier this process will be...but at the same time, don't settle. For me, I preferred to have a spoiler but was willing to go w/o. However, I was insistent upon black interior.

On the plus side, I also got the $500 manufacturer cash and the 2.9% financing.

Take it for what its worth. Good luck to you.

2008 Infiniti G37
Sport 2dr Coupe (3.7L 6cyl 6M)
just so you can read this. the first # is the MSRP, second is the Invoice.
Base Price of Vehicle $35,550 / $32,688
Regional Adjustment
for Zip Code Change - - $151
Optional Equipment $6,080 / $5,190
P01 Premium Package $3,200 / $2,757
U01 Navigation Package $2,200 / $1,896
P93 Illuminated Kick Plates $320 / $268
B94 Body-Colored Splash Guards $200 / $157
T95 Trunk Mat $100 / $69
T92 Trunk Cargo Net $60 / $43
Color Adjustment - -
Liquid Platinum
Destination Charge $715 / $715
Total with Options $42,345 / $38,593

so that is the invoice for my car. i got my car for 39,000 plus a 500 rebate from infiniti. unless my math fails me, that means i got my car for 38.5, which is 93 dollars less than invoice.

what did i do to get this number? what was my super secret? i knew the price of all of the options, knew the invoice before i went to the dealer. i told the dealer i was ready to buy, and if they can meet my price, i'll sign papers. i told my salesperson the number i wanted, just told him to talk to the sales manager, and if they want to do business to let me know. if not, i asked for the courtesy of letting me know so i can go to another dealership who might want my business.

i got the thumbs up about 3 minutes later.
best of luck!

Edit: you can do this yourself at www.edmunds.com http://www.edmunds.com/new/2008/infi....html?action=2 use this second link if u want the 6MT - easier for u

So I take it it is harder to push an invoice price if you want a specific car with options? I am in the market for one and want to play it smart but not a lot of dealers have what i want in stock exactly. So did most of you take the instock or did anyone build one and still get invoice?

Also looking from the post above, is it as easy as that? Just tell them you would like invoice and you will sign? I will have to see how well that works then!
