WoooHoooo Just put down $1700 trade and signed the papers on a new '01 Black SE w/performance package and automatic transmission (too much city driving to contend with the standard).

Got the car for $15,149 out the door (after tax and trade).

Can't wait to pick it up on Tuesday.

Congrats. I'm sure you'll love the car. I also got the auto, although didn't get the pp. I have only 400 miles on mine. I can't really determine what the performance will be. I have been close to 4000 rpm though and it just seemed that it was seriously coming to life. I know manual would be a lot more fun, but wife would not tolerate two 5 speeds in the household. Other is a '94 Toyota (gulp!!) 4WD pick-up. Oh BTW if your "service engine soon" light comes on and stays on, although it quite likely will be you have not tightened the gas cap properly (I hear 3 clicks is required) take it seriously. Mine is in the shop for a new torque converter and transmission. (going on 10 days and counting-damn:mad

. Anyway welcome to the board and as others have said: Don't be afraid to ask questions.

Later

I'm headed to the automatic too. I drove a Radium SE 5-spd today and fell in love. However, my 96 Toyota pickup is a stick, and the wife allows only one of those in the family.

Welcome to the board! Man, I sure did get ripped off buying my car. I don't think anyone else paid over $17k out the door, did they?

There's a lot of knowledgable people on this board, so feel free to pick our brains! Take care, and drive safe.

This is one area where I feel for you Americans. Here the full MSRP for 2001 SE Sport with Performance Package 5 sp. is the equivalent of 15,300. $16,000 US for Auto.
And in some cases you could bargain down from there.

I paid $15,430 US but got an overly generous trade-in value, no cash down, and low interest rate financing with document fees waived. Since our trade-in value reduces the sales tax payable, I didn't mind too much.

I paid exactly $17k, if that makes you feel any better. Sticker was $18350. I think after taxes and stuff I was right under the original sticker.

Well, for all those that feel like they got high prices . . . I guess it all depends on where you go. . .

I bought it at Quirk Nissan in Braintree, MA . . . not too sure how their service department is yet, hopefully I won't have to find out any time soon

.

Anyway, the salesman was a little worried when he came up and told me "We can only give you $1,500 for your trade" and I said "NO", grabbed all my papers that I had with me and headed for the door. Of course, he caught me on the way out and said "we can work something out". I ended up getting $1700 for my old '94 Sentra XE (which was beat to hell and need about $1,200 worth of body work), and only paid $100 over invoice for the new one.

This is the first time I ever bought a new car where I was in the position of power. I didn't need it, and I was willing to walk out at anytime. So . . . I thought it worked out pretty well.

Im hoping to pick up my 2001 Se with PP tomorrow. I am getting it for $17497 out the door. That is aboug $250 under the MSRP price. They ended up going up to $6000 trade for my 97 Civic Ex with 91,000 miles. So total I have to pay $11,497 which isn't too bad. BTW congrats on getting your new car.

I bought mine at Rockingham Nissan in Salem, NH. I wanted ABS and every dealer in MA said no cars with ABS existed in New England, but Rockingham found one.

I paid about $500 over invoice ($16,700) for mine. Unfortunately, I wasn't in a good bargaining position given that out of many dealers I contacted only they could get the car and I was driving a rental costing me $30/day at the time.
