Just from a financial stand point, don't let the dealer low ball you. No car is worth it. I have seen several dealerships around the Los Angeles county that have G37s parked on the lot, in other words, they didn't sell. It is a different story for each state, some dealers only order 3-4 cars per month and are able to sell right of the bat. The G37 is a beautiful car and well worth the money, but make sure that you squeeze every penny out of the trade. These dealers already make enough money by selling cars above the invoice. I also take into perspective that these state-of-the-art dealerships are expensive to maintain, but that's what business is all about, you nickel and dime your way. I would recommend waiting a couple of weeks to make the purchase, by that time all the hype should be dead. Purchasing a car takes patience, if you go with the trade tonight, they will trap you like a rabbit. I know it's hard to wait weeks because, you might not find the color, options, and model of your choice. This still shouldn't be a good reason to give away your hard earned money. Therefore, if you feel that this is the only option open, go in for the trade and best of luck.

Again, the G37 is a beautiful car.

NSV that is sooooo fricken true. Dealerships love to get score the TRIFECTA....financing, trade-in & selling at MSRP. I'm trying to wait until the hype cools off. I want the best price possible.

Seriously, your game has to be tight when purchasing a car from a dealership or you will get screwed.

Hello..NSV.....
I totally agreed with you. I went to Miller Infiniti (located in Van Nunys, CA) last weekend to check G37 coupe, and salesman was so cocky. The salesman told me there were couple G37s in the inventory, and the selling price's around $50,000............*(

I know some that a dealership in SoCal is forcing people to get chrome wheels (factory wheels) with a G37 purchase. They're $3k. They're not allowing anyone to buy a G37 without getting the wheels also. So I guess that's one way that the dealerships are getting extra money.

Thank you for the kind words. If I were in your shoes, I would also wait for the hype to cool down.

Hello w2870612

Tell me about it, I live in Sherman Oaks and leased my 2006 G35 Coupe from Miller Infiniti. They tried to work the magic on me, but I went through a car broker and ended up with a good deal.

12-Month Lease
1,500 down
399 monthly after taxes

NSV:

Great points. My dealer was $2,500 than anyone else on my 2005 TL, plus he "threw in" the wheel locks, trunk net, and splash guards.

well, won't have pics for a while.

they low balled the hell out of me with my trade. KBB shows 41XX-49XX fair and good respectively. they offered 2000 and didn't budge. i got a refund on my deposit and walked.

because i ordered TWO cars, i still have a couple of options/plays. i'll go to the other dealer tomorrow to have them appraise my car. if it's less than 4K, i'll go to Carmax and sell it for 4K.

sorry guys, this will have an 'ongoing' status for a couple of days.

Good for you. Well I don't mean it that way, I'm sorry you didn't get your car, however, I'm happy you stood your ground. Way back then a dealer also lowballed my brother's trade-in (a BMW) when he purchased his IS300. He walked and not more then a day or two later, they called back and said they would give him more. Not saying it will happen in your case, but you never know.

The salesman did not even explain the specification of G37 sport coupe to me, and he just told me the selling price's around $50,000. That salesman did not even offer me the test drive, and just asked me " how much down you wanna put?"..And then I told him i knew the G37 demand is high, so I am not going to pay the ridiculous price for G37... Basically, i just checked G37 coupe interior and pressed the start engine button to check the exhaust noise without driving this car. Be honest with you, if i am going to spend $50,000 for g37, Miller infiniti will not be my choice.
