Has anyone in the Toronto area (or the GTA) obtained an APA dealer invoice quote on the 04 SL AWD? If so, would you mind posting the price?

Many thanks,

TSXKid

Hello Jaak,

This is from CarCost Canada in March 2004 for a 2004 SL AWD (with optional sunroof). This offer was for the GMA (Greater Montreal Area) and it should be very close if not identical:

P.S. Did you go for this deal or were you able to negotiate a better $$?

Hi TSXKid! Well, having these numbers on hand, I went for this exact same deal at the dealer nearest me. They didn't have my vehicle on the lot so I paid an extra 200$ to get exactly the one I wanted. This is a fair extra. Knowing the dealer's cost is not easy in Canada but I saved a lot for a very small fee actually. It was one of the smartest investment I did in 2004, unlike all the zillion gizzmos that the MO maniacs here "encouraged" me to buy since I got my new baby... lol

Pay attention to these guys from the Accessories and Audio sections pal, they're real hazardous to your financial health! :2:

Oh yes, I want this too!!! Sorry, I have to go now!

 

[Mr. A]

Just a question?? If you know there cost can't you offer them $100 over? I got mine for cost and they located for me..

Mr. A,

It is a question of market, demand, offer and common sense. If the MO was a Ford or a Chrysler, I could have gotten away with maybe 3-4 hundreds over invoice but, the MO being a Nissan, if I offered anything under what I did, they would have sold it to the next guy. Honda, Toyota and Nissan do not need to cut their profit margin too much.

On a high moving car, getting away with a deal under 5% profit is very good. I got it for under 3% so I think that I had a pretty good deal...

 

[Mr. A]

OH I didn't know it was like that.. I just drove mine in the rain at night for the first time, And I have to tell everyone that I love my HID's Its like day light..:2: :2:
