Sick of waiting

I've been waiting and waiting to get a G since December and it's just so ********** hard here in Houston! I'm trying no to pay above $35k for a fully loaded G37S with less than 16k miles on it. For some odd reason, the price of the just goes up every time I see one. According to them, "they're hard to find now and they're more expensive at auctions that's why we're selling em for so high"

And now I've finally come down to both of these:

http://www.e-carone.ebizautos.com/we...px?iid=3837059

http://ps.getauto.com/group/details/...V64E88M103600/

These guys just won't lower the prices. The cars have been sitting there since Valentine's day and all they could do is a few hundred dollars.

I'm so tired of shopping around. I know some of you have gotten some AMAZING deals, but it is just impossible in Houston! I don't plan on buying a G somewhere else because I wanna be able to "feel and look" at the car before buying.

Please please please help me!

shop elsewhere and call and ask. you don't have to buy from houston, but from what i heard... houston gives pretty okay deals, maybe i'm wrong.

I'm starting to run into a similar problem where I just can't find the configuration I want (color, options, miles, condition) at the price I want. Everyone seems to be sitting around $33K and I want $30K...

I do! I've been wanting a VR, IP, AB (in order)!
But from what I've heard, VR is not a popular color.

Yea, doesn't it suck really wanting a rare color? I'm looking for AB and am having trouble...

Simple supply and demand. If you want a good price, you have to be willing to settle on the color/option.

Same experience here. I'm in the DFW area. I've shopped new and used both in DFW and HOU and around the country. DFW & HOU just aren't giving the best deals. I've been close (within $1K) but not close enough to buy.

When you think about it, a 2008 model will be 2 years old in about 6-7 months when the 2010 models come out. You have to consider that.

I've looked at the red one. It has gone down in price. It's starting to get close to a great deal. Compared that to a similar car with 15K miles is selling at Sewell for $35K.

I use cars.com to compare used car prices - it gives you a good comparison. I just put in within 250 miles so you get DFW and HOU pre-owned.

Have you looked at this one:

It's a lot lower mileage than the red one you reference.
