I was able to get pricing from a dealer in TX. I ended up not getting it, but passed it along to someone here.
I found a dealer in TX willing to discount about $750 off MSRP and adding $200 for VIN etch. So, basically $500 off. But, giving me free window tint and other stuff. There is no sales tax either with a sales tax credit.
2022 Red S Crew Cab 4X4 with technology, splash guards, and carpet floor mats.
Any insight from people about what’s going to happen in 18 months when the market value of these trucks is definitely not 98%?
I read an article that said negotiating buyout is impossible with captive lenders, but if the market value is 35k are they really going to let you walk if you’re willing to pay 37k instead of the 47k buyout price?
Manufacturing made their margin at MSRP, finance arm made on rent charge, and dealership gets the first right of refusal to buy and sell that car as a used/CPO whatever car.
Everyone is happy.
Just thinking about what the options are for keeping these things at lease end. I guess the Tacoma redesign will (hopefully) be out by then so that might be the next move.
A. Why would you pay $37 for something that has a market value of 35?
B. They don’t waste money employing a team of people to do this stuff (constantly update pricing, give/take/reject offers, communicate with clients, etc etc.)
Nissan wants to make sure you will not have a chance in hell to flip them and they turn around inventory very fast in 18 months and sell it again plus charge you an arm and a leg in financing at 8% APR
