i don't know about the rest of the country, but Long Island isn't effected as much. We are up 134% compared with last year.

Buy a 2011, the foglights are in the correct place, then pay no more than $1k over dealer invoice. Preferably less.

we are one of the top dealers in the country so we just pump out the cars on the road.

but don't judge from when people bought from last year. It's just the same as asking the question of when should I buy a house. the 2010 inventory is done already -- 2011's will be arriving within a month. Some places might have some 2010's leftover but not much like last year's issues

So the question has been asked a few times already-- what will the 2011 G37 6MT look like (not the IPL version)? Will it have the same front/rear bumpers as the 2010 car? Will it have carry-over 19" wheels? Will it have foglights in the lower front bumper like the IPL cars?

If the 2011's are only a month away, you guys must know by now...

my dealer still receives 2010s. The one i was looking at was manufactured 8/07/2010 and arrived the first week of sept.

how come the 2010s were such late production? my dealership didn't get 2010 Gs until about March. six mos later they're already getting 2011s...

i see what youre saying but home prices rise and fall at different times of the year..car prices generally drop at a predictable time of the year: at the end..nov-dec

those are usually just to get you in. the best deals are had at the end of the year (or beginning i guess if they have a lot of leftover stock), or at the end of the month.

i think all that has changed.

if they met their quotas for the fiscal year then they might give you a worse deal on christmas eve then on some random slow month like July.

Ok, so I've decided to buy a 2010 sedan journey with prem package, so far ive been obtained a few quotes of around 34500 which i think I can find lower. What price do you think these should be going for?

New Cars, Used Cars, Car Reviews and Pricing - Edmunds.com get the TMV and never go over that...you might even want to take the print out with you.
