I was told it was steep discount on the Nissan Armada and I understand the 1000 fuel tax. It is certainly a gas guzzler and that is definitely something I'm taking into consideration.
My beef i suppose is that they priced MSRP on a 2017 model, gave me the 12,000 Nissan rebate, then another $3000 because it was a demo. And a whole year of the warranty was already eaten up. Then they go back and add on most of the discount they took off for being a demo.
I'm waiting for another quote from a really upfront dealer who gave me all the costs associated without me even asking. I've been wringing out the details with the original quote one number at a time. It's like pulling teeth. The thing is he is the only guy with the model I want in my area, so really he can charge whatever he wants because it's a desired item and Nissan is giving them 12000 to play with. I really want to tell him to fly a kite but I'm not ready to burn that bridge yet.
Hopefully I'll be able to burn it tomorrow and maybe throw some fuel on with it
whether demo or whatever, the dealership will just look at the discount. they see they are discounting 3k. now, they are making 1 more on that, so it's really just a 2k discount...
how much of a "demo" is this? like, they punched it (meaning, they reported is sold) and that's it, or did they actually put on some kms? either way, I'd be doing my homework to find invoice price and not pay a penny over that. i don't care how few of them are around, that's not because they are a big seller, it's because no dealer orders many.
getting to use it as a demo to me negates any actual profit for the front end. putting actual significant kms on it makes me want to purchase it for a discounted price from invoice as they should have been writing it down each month.
