R36 Wagon- what did you pay?

[ur85q]

It's quite a different situation now, I'm finding, what with no stock in the country and the next batch pretty much already pre-sold. The dealers I've talked to just aren't entertaining prices anywhere near where some of those listed in this thread. Either that, or my negotiation skills just ain't what they used to be!

The price for a standard R36 drive away with corp. discount is around $63000. Which options are you after and what have you been quoted?

My dealer made such a "poor me" song and dance, almost felt sorry for him. I must admit that I don't feel I got a great deal, but they had pre-ordered an MY10 with Nav and no sunroof (which suited me as being my size, I really wanted the additional headroom) which brought delivery time to about 8 weeks - looking forward to mid October...

As a tact, if you feel you cant get much more out of them, where I was, I went for additional warranty (total 5 years) and tried for scheduled servicing.

They would give me one, but not both. So, when you have your best deal, I suggest going for additional warranty or servicing - they reckon each is worth about $1,500 and it really suited me to have the comfort of having full factory warranty for a full year after my lease... Not bad for resale should I want to move it on then.

also now past end of june so no more end of financial year targets to meet or beat. + the merc dealer says there will now be a shortage of virtually all imported cars in the pipeline as manufacturers in europe scaled back with the GFC and arent trying to shift excess stocks toward us.

This is ex GST and without Luxury car tax surely?

I got a driveaway price of $68000 with Sat Nav, MDI and Sunroof.

GST - $5724 which I get back at the next BAS anyway.

And LCT of $1737.72 which is kissed goodbye.

So ex GST of $62 300 is the effective cost to me.

No, $63400 is the all inc. price for a standard R36 wagon without options, ie. no roof, no nav no mdi, with corporate discount.

If you picked up a total of 5 years warranty (2 years extra) you were given a worthless dealer warranties that will only cover you for a few hundred dollars in repairs and require you to send in the servicing coupons within a few days of service and with a cost to the dealer of around $50.

Perhaps you meant 6 years?

Sorry, that seems laughable... Which dealer? Show us a quote...

Or, if someone can what what $70,000 drive away (including Sunroof, SatNav, GST and LCT) is into the individual components, maybe it's not that different.

Actually if you drop the SatNav and Sunroof it's roughly $65,000 drive away. But that's sedan price.

[Benem]

Sorry, that seems laughable...

S'roof, mdi, nav, auto tail...amount to about $6100 extra. Final price $69500. So you do the math Rocket...

After the bare bones quote I simply added as much as I could with a 70k limit. Others have done even better...

[Rocket36]

Yeah mine was $70k drive away with Satnav and roof but no "corporate discount". So I'm pretty happy all things considered.

That base price you said isn't really that laughable after all.
