Will Dealers Markup The Z?

[NissanFreak2021]

As long as there are people willing to pay over sticker then dealers will do markups. I can always wait the shady dealers out.

Trust me when I tell you, that didn't stop them.

They "sell" it at MSRP and then magically they offer it "used" with <1k miles and still flip it.

I believe it, but this has to be one of the most low life practices in existence.

My dealer is going to be requesting a $500 deposit following Tuesday’s announcement. I’ll be requesting a signed purchase agreement at that time. If they get sketchy then I’ll take my business elsewhere.

i was going to get on a few lists, but i think i'll wait. let someone else take the hit when they drive it off the lot and i'll buy it barely used lol

I've been opportunistic from time to time and made a little money off it. Some people try to buy up every new GPU, console, etc. and resell them at a massive premium which to me goes from opportunistic to greedy pretty quickly. Regardless of what I think, there are always people with more money than sense willing to pay it.

I was really talking about dealerships doing it. For them to "sell" a car at MSRP, drive it 500 miles, and then offer it as a used car for really any amount over, let alone a substantial amount over MSRP, is a laughably low practice.

If you have the means as an individual to buy two C8's and flip them for profit then more power to you.

already on one with a signed contact although my down payment was $4000
To me it doesn’t matter because I still have to pay the full amount, just means giving a little more a little earlier.
And yes I understand some will think I’m crazy….however most Australian dealerships are doing the same and a great deal have already sold their supposed allocations

Yea I’d be willing to put down much more as a deposit for them to agree to MSRP

This is the way I see it unfort, just watch between 8/17 and 11/15 orders, see what dealers are willing to do. I'm talking here in the US not Aus. Will visit my dealer today and get a feel of what they're after since they know me well. Suppose I can 'reserve' a Sport or Nismo then with $ down to secure a spot, but only on color options I want.

Agree…you guys are in a different situation….make friends with as many dealers as you can and play the off against each other. They will only sell above sticker price if people are willing to pay the extra

be sure not to tell them at first if you are paying for it all in cash...they for sure will tack on more $ knowing they won't be getting any financing interest.

get your very best price and when your in the last office with the finance guy, say... "you know what? i'm just gonna go ahead and pay for it in cash now that i think about it. "

then brake him off by telling him "btw i'll go ahead and trade in the car i drove here in...the other dealership said they would give me x amount. you can beat that, right?"

 

[Go2ZZZ]

I think they will if it’s in high demand.

Agree 100%

You won't have them by the cajones on this one. They're not going to let you land 2 punches on them.
