nissan guess they are just passing the buck to the customers...

 

Wowsers. 50 bucks. Man, that may make the difference between getting a Maxima or walking. Or maybe the diff between getting a Max and a Mercedes S500.

I dunno. This may make me blow off Nissan and all their products for ever and ever. I mean, heck, that's a whole tank of gas.

ha, got mine May 20th. Saved $50 woohoo!! Uh, since they're makeing 05's now, how are they uping the price $50 on 04's? The rebates are getting higher. I got mine at $200 over cost (internet and dealer #'s). Then the next ad I saw was even more off. I don't mind since I got the last onyx/black leather in my area and my old car failed inspection with a week left til expiration.

 

In Canada the 2004 SE's were stickered at $32,400. Now the 2005 SE's are up at $34,500. Thats a hefty price increase for one model year.

 

Hey 50 bucks could actually get you laid.....

 

Yeah, but the treatments are so painful.

They aren't making 2005s yet. I ordered a 2004 at the end of May for production in July and delievery at the end of July or early August. They don't think 2005s are going to be available before September or October according to Nissan distribution.
