West Los Angeles Dealships Santa Monica Infiniti vs. Southbay

Anyone able to get a good price from these Dealerships? If so, which one is higher volume and better price? An internet online broker site is charging about 42k for NAV, Premium, Sport, Spolier and Splash Guards. How much better can I do?

I think at this time you can a G37 for invoice... check their inventory online and offer to pay invoice (they should agree).

My experience so far is that SM is one of the worst dealerships in the area. I live and work in Santa Monica so when I was leasing my 07 G35 coupe I tried to give them my business... their online sales manager basically told me that with the price that I want - it would be a "steal" and I should buy 5 of those cars... not only that, but he told me that Infiniti might not be the car for me.

The fact is that I can afford to purchase any brand - but I wasn't going to give up my $$ to that jack ***... I ended up getting an event better deal that I wanted from Metro and took my business there.

My lease is up in about a month... I will give SM infiniti last chance... if they decide to play their stupid games again - I will never buy or service my car there again...

Haven't purchased a car from SouthBay - but when I talked to a few sales people they were cool and didn't give me bs... they didn't have the car i wanted.

DO NOT go to Southbay. I visited them a number of times and they're just absolutely horrible. The finance manager and the salesman I dealt with were both condescending and very deceiving. They lied to my face and I actually confronted them but they just throw out some BS.

My experience at Santa Monica was good thanks to Aaron and Dave. Aaron is still over there but Dave is at Cerritos now. Cerritos was good too but I'd suggest contacting Dave at Cerritos. I think a number of people on the forum would agree with me. Since you're in the so cal area, I'd give Dave a call. He frequents the forum and understands where both sides are coming from.

Whaaaat? you hypocrite!! You are not to buy a car now young man... you will wait like the rest of us sorry saps!

Seriously, if you do pull the trigger on the '08, you can easily get the car for well below 42K... i'm talking at least 3K lower, and a good deal more the closer we get to the 09s

Give Dave ISM at Cerritos a call like ucla bruin mentioned. You won't be disappointed.

Santa Monica FTW, call and ask for Nicole De La Cruz. She got me and Mangoface hooked up with our rides, as well as other members.

Nicole Rocks.!!

Indeed...
Graham sent me over to see Nicole @ Santa Monica and I swore off setting foot in any dealership a Long time ago.

Nicole was on point, cool, found my car quickly and I didn't set foot inside the dealership.
My office (Which is in Santa Monica) dropped off the check and the car was delivered to my home in Sherman Oaks.

Signed,Sealed,Delivered She's mine.

Of course now I need treatment for a fresh case of Restless Right Foot Syndrome-(RRFS) it's worth it.

Two others I know are about to contact her about a G37s.

-Mango-


Thanks again Graham.
