Thumbs up Got my G37 from Santa Monica

I live in the Phoenix area but could not stand dealing with the local dealers (even the internet guys would start out at MSRP). I submitted a request for quote to Infiniti of Santa Monica and got a response from Nichole saying I could have what I wanted (Journey w/Premium) for invoice. I was dubious and requested a fax. She sent detailed price breakdowns of the two colors I was interested in with an 'out-the-door' price. The quote was exactly invoice with no dealer add-ons (nothing, nada - no tint or clear coat or any of the usual pricey extras).
So my wife and I flew out there to complete the deal. It was the smoothest car transaction I've ever had. Zero pressure for any extras. The finance person gave us a list of options for extended warranty, prepaid service, etc with discounted prices and said they'd honor the discount for a month.
The car was pristine and I very much enjoyed the drive home. I was told they also ship cars all over the country.
Tell her Steve from AZ sent you

I don't have it in front of me but it matched what was on Edmunds and various other sites.

Steve from AZ, so what is your "out-the-door" price? Many people have said they got their G at invoice but did not specify if it is the OTD or just invoice(before tax and licensing). Please advise b/c I am shopping for my G as well.

Thank you All!

Sorry, I did not realize there could be confusion between invoice price and 'out-the-door' price. But I understand your point.
Here's the price breakdown:
Base: $32,413
Cargo Net: $43
Premium Pkg: $2757
Freight: $715
---------------
SubTotal: $35,928 (vs MSRP of $39225)

DocFee: $55
License Fee: $23
CA Tire Fee: $8.75
AZ Sales Tax: $2878.64
------
Total: $38893.39

This does not include the first year of AZ tags. Tags are ridiculous in AZ ($600+).

The best I got with AZ dealers was about $41k unless I wanted to 'come talk to the manager'.

I'd be willing to do that on a lease if the shipping isnt too bad.
Also need to check insurance on such a car
