WaunaLeaf said:OK, so technically I'm in Waunakee (WaunaLeaf, get it?). Leaf reserved. Have heard nothing yet. Anyone else?
Ask to have the quote broken down. If they are including the $850 destination fee, and all of the doc fees, these prices might be about right.paulwesterberg said:... I really would like an electric vehicle, but I hate dealing with car salesmen who try to jack up the price.
paulwesterberg said:Ok, so this week I got an email from nissan saying that I could now order.
There are 2 nissan dealers in madison, Kayser & Zimbrick, but the leaf reservation system only lists Zimbrick.
I submitted a request for a price quote and got an email back from Zimbrick:
SV MSRP: $36,220
SL MSRP: $38,100
While nissanusa & Zimbrick's own website lists these prices:
2012 Nissan LEAF SV 4dr HB MSRP $35,200
2012 Nissan LEAF SL 4dr HB MSRP $37,250
I really would like an electric vehicle, but I hate dealing with car salesmen who try to jack up the price.
This is an excellent tip!davewill said:Ask to have the quote broken down. If they are including the $850 destination fee, and all of the doc fees, these prices might be about right.
that is what people in OKC area got, but will be good idea to talk to dealerpaulwesterberg said:... I really would like an electric vehicle, but I hate dealing with car salesmen who try to jack up the price.
I can report that the dealer's quote stuck to the same MSRP for the vehicle and accessories that the website listed. They will charge me fees of $399.50 for "documentation" and $28.25 for "title transfer," but not the usual $850 "destination charge." Plus, they offered to flatbed my Leaf from Las Vegas to my home over the border free-of-charge
You are correct, Zimbrick adds a $850 destination charge... which is not included in their advertised price.davewill said:Ask to have the quote broken down.

I understand the sentiment, but that one is Nissan's fault. Nissan charges the destination fee, and they don't include it in their advertised prices.paulwesterberg said:You are correct, Zimbrick adds a $850 destination charge... which is not included in their advertised price.
This is why I dislike car dealers. ...

Sigh... I read the disclaimer and understood perfectly, but I think that Nissan leaving the fee out of the advertised price is still slimy. I suppose next you'll respond with the old saw about how "everyone" else does it.TNleaf said:... Sigh. With the sheer number of legal claims of silly things (ie, HOT CONTENTS warning on coffee for fear of lawsuits), I suppose people just get lazy and stop reading when they feel that they are done. ...

I said I read it and I did. Stop making accusations, TN.TNleaf said:No, I'll point out how your statement is still false. "Nissan leaving the fee out of the advertised price" --it wasn't left out. That's the whole point. Anywhere they "advertised" their price they put all the disclaimers right below it.
So again, to say they left it out is admitting that you didn't read the entire advertisement.

A big yellow number that isn't the real price = slimy...I don't care how much BS they put in tiny print at the bottom.
Good thing nobody asked you to.TNleaf said:... there's no helping you. ...
