Need Some Advice

I'm right there with ya. I have an 05 with 2000 miles... just waiting for the brake problem lol.

I paid $33k for mine. se, leather, tow pacakge,no dvd, no nav.

Even if we have brake problems... not a big deal. they will fix every time and think of it as getting free brake jobs

Looking to purchase a 2005 Armada LE. Right now dealer is 1000 over invoice before rebate. Armada lists for about 45500. Good deal?
Also brake problem has me concerned. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

No. I got mine for $46 out the door with every available option and 2% financing instead of rebate. I have NAV, DVD, 4x4 and this included tax, registration, everything. It was also the first Red Brawn LE 4x4 we could find in the state as none had been delivered to FL when I got mine so it was in demand.
I got a price from here: http://www.new-nissans.com/ and then contacted the dealer through their internet man with this price to see how well he could do. He was able to get me the same price plus delivery he needed to do from another dealer to get it to me from the Carolinas(couple hundred bucks). Hope this helps.

Just purchased a '05 SE with leather and tow for $500 over invoice before rebate. Once we got everything set, I made him give my another $500 for my trade. He didn't like it but he did it. So I feel like I got it for invoice.

With GM doing the employee discount and Ford doing $5000 cash back on the Expedition, just tell him you are going to go elsewhere if he can't do it for Invoice. The new Armadas should be here in 2 months, don't forget to tell him you may be forced to buy a new 2006 at another dealer if he can't make you happy. Try to get a number closer to invoice over the phone from another dealer, and put it right in front of him. Color, options don't matter, it's all about the invoice price. Walk out at least 3 times on this Bozo.

I just got mine for $1000 under invoice PLUS the 3%/5 years interest rate on a fully loaded LE 4X4. It can be done. I just told them about this forum and called three dealerships until one agreed to the deal.

im in same situation... im lokking to buy an LE 05 4x4 sunroof pkg. i have i friend that works on a dealer and he got me a price of 36,900 plus taxes and all that. then i went to another dealer and told them i wanted to get an armada LE and the price they were giving me was very good, and that i was willing to give no less than 10 grand. with this in mind the clerk made wait for 2 minutes, made some phone calls and came back matching the price the other dealer gave me "BUT" with cheaper delivery of 80 dollars less. didnt seems to much but as u can see im on my way to a 3rd dealer to see what i can do. so far i got everyone's bussiness card with preices and everything and saying to that i want to wait untill 06 model comes out. they gonna try to push u to buy it, since gas prices are going ufff !!! but 45,000 seems way to much dude...

Dealer invoice on an LE 4x4 with sunroof is $40 grand, sticker is $43. Take off $1500 for current rebates and you are at $38500 + taxes, tags, and higher financing. How did you get $36,900? Dealer would be loosing a couple grand on that.
Mine was a $48K sticker, $43 dealer invoice. Add on 6.5% tax, tags and everything and I basically got mine for invoice at $46k. Are you basically looking at $40 out the door?

"Internet" price here was $400 off dealer invoice for any Armada, or lesser Nissan for that matter, on the lot plus $150 gift cert. in parts not including any incentives, special financing or rebates. Invoice the dealer showed matched exactly what was on Edmunds.com. The only haggling I did was for free service loaner. Could have maybe gotten it down more, but it's not like that wasn't a good price. (like that double negative,no?)
IMO Check more dealers if you are not getting at least dealer invoice or better.

If dealers are turning their cars quick they pick up the difference on dealer holdback, approx. 3% for nissan, so on a 40k Armada thats another $1200 in their pocket from the factory.
It's interesting, based on Edmunds True Market Value (at least for this zip code) most of us are getting the low numbers that make that average TMV!

Good job and good deal!

umm yea i got 36,900 plus taxes handling... it all adds up, but again is a very good price, i have the card with all the prices, is either an LE 4x2 or LE 4x4. diff is 2,000 grand.
