They made the Altima so good, that Maxima sales are hurting. People are not willing to pay $2,000 extra for Maxima w/ 15 extra ponies.

Boy, I am SOOOOOOO tempted to trade my 1999 SE for a 2002 6-speed with HLSD. If only they made a body kit for the 2K2...

 

Ohh thats just great

 

GODDAMMMNIT.....well..at least being in california..i bought my car before tax went up .25% oh well....

 

I guess you can't get the 0.9% financing then? In any case, where can I get more info on this rebate?

 

southern states nissan in raleigh, nc advertised any
nissan on the lot was invoice plus keep the rebate......

there were 6 speeds.

 

C'mon now, coming back from the dealership today, the salesfolk are not even trying to push the Maxima. They try to say buy an Altima, why? Margin. Maximas abound as usual, over 70 or so on the lot. $1000 rebate is too small unless you do a GXE for under 20k. Wait until the summer when they can't give the cars away. Nah, looks don't matter.

 

Lovely sig

 

How long ago were they advertising this in Raleigh?

 

1-800-NISSAN1 I called and confirmed.

 

I bought my 99 Se from 'em. Infact we bought 4 cars in 1.5 years from em. I live in Charlotte and drive there to pick up my car. But now they suck.

I called Nissan Customer Service (800-NISSAN1) to find out about this rebate announcement, but the representative said they knew nothing about it; Edmunds.com doesn't list it, either...is the $1000 rebate for real?

 

the invoice price was within the last 7-10 days

and yes, they do suck (at least the service dept does)

 

Yes, this is for real. The rep on 800-NISSAN-1 did confirm this.
The only other place online is:
carsdirect.com

 

Thanks...I saw the carsdirect.com listing of the $1000 rebate, too, but I wonder how reliable they are...their 2002 SE HLSD selling price, for example, is the same as MSRP, yet the car is available elsewhere at near-invoice prices. It's also odd that other online sources don't list the rebate (yet).

 

Talked to the Nissan mgr at my dealer today and he confirmed the $1k rebate and said he expects the rebate to extend well beyond Jan.

 

I work for Nissan and the rebate is $1,000 dollars OR NMAC APR, which is 3.9% for credit tiers 1 and 2 and tier 3 is 5.9%. Thats good I got my '02 last 2 weeks when it was $500 and the 3.9% NMAC APR.

 

So you paid $500 below invoice? Is that invoice w/ advertising fees or without?

 

I get killer deals on Nissan's. I paid $27,802 for a 2002 SE with navi and every option except for merdian, which I think is worthless here in southern cali. The deal I got was a $500 rebate which you use for a down payment and the 3.9% APR. Right now, Nissan has a $1,000 or the special interest rate of 3.9% to 5.9%. The only trick is, now you have to pick one or the other, you can't have both things. I know most dealerships will sell there maximas and other cars for $300-500 over invoice, which is still an awesome deal.

 

My car is on order and supposed to be in sometime February. Think the rebate will be extended or increased past January? I know Ford just announced some $2,500 rebates, and GM has $2,002???
