Hello Guys.

I just got back from the 6th largest Nissan Dealership in the nation (Nissan Dealership in Gwinnett County in Georgia)

According to a chief sales manager (Mike Owens),
the pricing on the Altimas, Sentra SE-r's and Maximas WILL NOT sheer over $300 from the MSRP (meaning discount over $300).

I am sorry guys, but Nissan will NOT cut prices to make it easier to purchase.

ANY Nissan dealership which sells ANY 2002 + Nissan Sentra SE-r, Maxima, or Altima at a discount of $300 or more will receive SEVERE Auditing, and all shipment of those cars will be discontinued to those dealerships.

PERIOD.!!!

Sorry guys, but they WILL be quite pricy.

All this is NOT an assumption. This information comes DIRECTLY from a Representative of Nissan Motors in Japan.

BOOOOO for those (such as I) who dont make 6 digits yet!!!

That's just all talk. When the cars aren't rolling off the lots I guarantee you there will be discounts. No dealership wants to be stuck with a bunch of 2002 models when 2003 rolls around. They'll be easier to talk to if you go in September 2002 to buy a 2002 model.

Why would Nissan Japan set prices for the US? That's what Nissan North America is for.

The dealership can set whatever price they want. MSRP is what Nissan recommends. Nissan is gonna have a VERY hard time selling the 2002 Maximas. I wouldn't even consider a new Maxima right now if I walked into a dealership. For 28K+, there are way too many other cars out there that get my juices going.

The sticker price on my 95 SE was $22,890. Ahh, those were the days. I put 0 down and paid almost $800 a month for 3 years.

Yeah, and I'll bet he's got some land in Florida he wants to sell you! You've got to remember that car salesmen are amateurs compared to sales managers. Personally, I wouldn't pay $300 over invoice.

$300 over MSRP - forget it!

You really ought to check out this link on how to deal with these yahoos.
