10% more sounds NORMAL.
I've seen someone put upwards of 90 grand for one somewhere I don't remember. I might have heard it from someone on another forum.
I just can't see paying THAT much more for something that will be out for the next coming years.
You will have an opportunity to get one with no problems and pay what they are worth by next year I would think.
Just my two cents.

Although I have heard of $25k - $35k over sticker in some parts of the country, I think that $5k - $10k over MSRP is reasonable. After that, most people have a hard time justifying the price just for "being one of the first" to get one. When they hit ebay this summer i wouldn't be surprised to see them go for well over 6 figures.
There are many others who will pay far more money for it but $125,000 to them is like $10,000 to us :) It really comes down to how badly you want it now as opposed to later...
There is something to be said for exclusivity. If you get a GT-R this year or even next year, you will probably not see another one unless you're at a car show!

Here in Naples FL the local dealer quoted me $100,000 with a $50,000 non refundable deposite. He claimed to have an allocation of 6 and that 4 were sold under these terms. I then checked with the dealer in Ft Myers FL. They took a refundable $2000 deposite and said the price was unknown at this time but to his (salesmans) knowledge the price would be about $85,000. He told me that I have the last reservaton of the 7 they were allocated.
Both claimed a deivery of early June.
I do not mind paying a premium for the limited availablity but $15,000 is about my limit assuming the car will go for sticker within a year of release.
Hard to believe they would go for $125,000 on ebay in June. If so mine is for sale.

*******************************
IMO...a person should pay what one wants to pay, as much as they'd like. It's their money and therefore, their choice. No one is ever at gunpoint to buy these cars. The market will bear what it bears...that's business' 'supply and demand' 101. It's no different than going to COSTCO or Sam's Club and buying the 12 to 20% mark-up on the products that you buy there, and you can't negotiate at all! It's buy or don't buy. So why can't a Car Retailer make the same profit 'mark-up' margin as a Product Wholesaler??

MSRP already has the mark up built into the price, therefore i do not feel like i or anyone for that matter should be ripped off by some gready dealer. If you want to pay $129,000 or more, go right ahead. Remember however that you are still only buying a NISSAN not a FERRARI. The company (NISSAN)should forbid dealers to make up their own prices!!! If the GT-R is really as reliable as the JAPANESE claim, then by all means increase the price a little bit at a time each year of production. I have ordered my GT-R with $5000 down and my price (MSRP) is guaranteed by my dealer on a contract. Tell me as to why this is possible for my dealer and not for others? It may be delivered June, July or August, but at least my price is what it should be!!!

Correct me if I am wrong... but I have been told that Nissan is implementing rules for the dealerships now so that they cannot be marked up to much after hearing about all this going on. All dealerships now have to report back to the US Nissan HQ with the prices in order to be able to sell them under contract.

I hope that what you are saying is true. It is about time that NISSAN did something about price gougin. We all know that the GT-R is a great car. Lets all share any additional info that anyone may come across regarding the above matter to make sure that we all get treated fairly by NISSAN DEALERS and get a great price on our GT-R's.

I was the "3rd" on their list and said they would sell the car for "msrp" with a $25,000 down payment a couple of months ago. I got a call on Friday from them and was told it would be $50,000 over msrp. I went down the road and got one for $10,000 over. Placed deposit yesterday, Ivory White with Grey Interior... :cool:

I wouldn't be alone in believing that the GT-R is in-fact, better than Ferrari, in many regards---mainly, daily drive-ability and overall cost of ownership. I don't get trying to slight on the GT-R for being a Nissan...it is the Japanese-Ferrari! Why buy it if you really look at your own argument from that perspective???
Dealers have every right to charge whatever they choose for their product. While I do not condone the 'outrageous' mark-ups, I do know about "return on investment", something obviously you don't, otherwise you wouldn't be 'grandstanding' about the situation. You claim you got yours for only MSRP, that's great! So pipe-down already. You nor Nissan North America can't negotiate for everyone else, so let them make the best deal that they can with whom ever they choose. Get a clue, pal.

It is supply and demand as someone earlier stated...We are selling are 3 for 20k over. This is obviously a rare thing that is happening, but the GTR's are a rare vehicle. Nissan is not allowed to cap a dealer on what they can sell a vehicle for. It is in are franchise agreement.

I don't want to pay any more than the next guy but a dealership is a business, and the purpose is to make a profit. If I owned a dealership, I love cars, but I'm also trying to feed my family and after selling low margin Sentras to low end customers, I would probably try to make some money off of the GT-R too. That doesn't make me shady though.

Manufactors Suggested Retail Price
We are selling ours for 10k over msrp we feel that that is a fair price considering the demand for the car. The manufactor does say suggested!!!!
With that in mind Nissan made the price 75k loaded knowing that the dealers would mark them up no matter what they put on the window. They also said in the GTR agreement that they would punish dealers that charge an excessive amount over.
I was in a dealer meeting and this topic was discussed, Nissan feels that the car should sell for about 85k-90k. Knowing this they felt that 10k over would be fair still but they didn't want to price it at 85k and then dealers charge 95k for the car.
The dealers that are charging excessive amounts will lose future allocation. Plus there reputations will be trashed along the way.
As for the rare find of getting one for MSRP. they are few and far between. As the world we live in if there a guy asking 50k over there is a dealer that will sell one for msrp also.

"Nissan Puts Safeguards in Place as It Begins Taking GT-R Orders
CHICAGO — Nissan North America said on Wednesday that the 480-horsepower Nissan GT-R is now available for pre-ordering at 691 of approximately 1,400 of its dealerships in the U.S. At the same time, the automaker told Inside Line it has put a formal program in place to help prevent price gouging on the supercar, which starts at $69,850 for the base model.
"We are taking steps to let the dealers know that marking up the car is not a good thing," said Nissan North America Spokesman Darryll Harrison. "We're trying to take steps to curb excessive markups."
Harrison said the automaker is requiring dealership management staff, such as the dealer principal, to conduct all GT-R transactions. "We're not saying salespeople are bad, but management is closer to the day-to-day operations of the dealership, and they don't work on commission," Harrison noted.
Dealers will also be required to file all GT-R paperwork, such as factory orders for the GT-R, through Nissan North America's regional sales offices, which will oversee the sales prices of the car and provide "counsel" in case of price gouging. It is unusual for dealers to have to turn over orders to regional offices for oversight.
The 691 Nissan dealers who won GT-R certification are "many of our urban dealers in larger markets," said Harrison. A complete list is available at nissanusa.com. To become certified, the dealers had to have a master technician on staff who is trained in the "ins and outs of the GT-R," said Harrison. The certified dealers also had to invest in an upgrade of their facility, down to such details as providing larger lifts to accommodate the low and wide body of the GT-R.
Nissan also formally detailed pricing on the GT-R — except for the destination charge, which has not yet been set. The base GT-R is priced at $69,850; the GT-R Premium starts at $71,900. An iPod converter adds $360 to the bottom line, while carpeted GT-R floor mats add $280. "Super Silver," a special exterior paint, costs an additional $3,000. A cold-weather package is a no-cost option and bundles either all-season or snow tires made specifically for the GT-R, as well as different fluids that allow the car to operate in optimum fashion in colder climates.
Harrison said that customers should expect the pre-order process to require a down payment. But the automaker is not allowed to set that amount for the dealers. Harrison said bloggers have been e-mailing him, suggesting that pre-orders may require deposits as low as $500 or $1,000. The Web site Exhaustnote.com warns of additional charges of $25,000-$60,000 over sticker for the GT-R in the U.S. Harrison would not provide advice to consumers on how much of a down payment is reasonable.
Harrison says the company expects a U.S. sales volume for the GT-R of 2,500 units in the first full year, followed by sales of about 1,500 a year afterwards. He emphasized that the 2,500 was a sales number, not a production number. "The 2,500 number is not a production cutoff," Harrison said. "We haven't determined whether or not we'll do that [cut off sales at a certain point]."
Customer deliveries of the GT-R are set to kick off in June."

We all remember the recent GTO. Well it was a sales disaster. Why? Bland styling, kinda pricey, but the biggest killer I think was greedy dealers. Charging insane markups, not allowing test drives, not allowing test drives without running your credit, and all kinds of stupid stuff. The result? Pontiac missing its sales target by 12,000 cars.
Now this same stuff is happening with the GTR. Almost every dealer that I called that has a big markup still have a couple cars available. And the weird part about it; they have people who had put deposits down, and have withdrawn them. You would think that a light bulb would go off at some point, but nah.
I believe for awhile and this is only my opinion, that these cars are not going to sell as fast as some of these dealers think, and that’s going to hurt our chances to receive other models. Taking a look at the GTO, common sense to me says “lets not let this happen again”
I just hope for favorable comparison test this summer when the magazines can put them up against cars like the Z06, and the 911, and others. Until then, these dealers are farting with the car windows up.
I will get one though, as soon as a manual transmission comes out.

02-28-2008, 12:47 PM
Its all supply and demand. They are only bringing in 1,500. Pontiac did miss the target by 12,000. You wont see 12,000 of these. If there were going to be 12,000 of them then you would be buying them for MSRP maybe less. We have sold one already. I personally do not know if I would pay 20-60k over stickerfor this or any car, but there are people out there who will and are. Pontiac tried to make GTO into something it wasnt.
1stturbo
02-28-2008, 12:50 PM
The GTO is a boring Pontiac, it is no comparison to the GTR. If they would have made a car that looks like a retro GTO they would still be selling them. If I were Nissan I would not accept an order that was above MSRP. Nissan has that control they just want to try and keep dealers happy. Keep in mind that this is an 18 month supply of cars. When these hit the street the demand will be greater. I have taken orders at 10k above MSRP because thats what our dealer wants, and its his dealer and the price is SUGGESTED msrp not actual retail cost.
ATL-Porsche
02-28-2008, 01:38 PM
Not to knock the GTO but it's not even in the same ballpark as the GT-R. Check your sources at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontiac_GTO, they did sell 11k-12k of those each year.
But really, we're comparing apples to oranges here. A limited production car to a 12,000 units a year car. Not to mention, there wasn't nearly as much hype and the GTO didn't outperform supercars like Ferrari, Porsche, and Lambo. In the end, like everyone else said, it's supply and demand. The supply is low, and there's enough demand that will keep the car's price where it is. You may not be willing to pay above that, but there are enough people out there that are willing to pay markup to be one of the first to own one.

I was contacted by a local dealer here in Salt Lake City today about my interest in a GTR, I had stopped by a few months ago and asked to be called when they would be ordered. He said that he had been allocated 4 GTR's. He would sell the car for MSRP, plus a $25,000.00 ordering fee.
I laughed, told him to suck it.
No GTR for me, maybe in a few years.

Ordering fee? Crazy. Hey guys and gals. I'm new here and my first post (woohoo). I've been reading a lot on this forum and you guys supplied great info. But I want a GTR like many of you. I started to call and email a bunch of dealers. I'm located in so cal so the mark ups are crazy as I found out for myself. I had a dealer that told me its going to be over a 100gs and 5g deposit. I found another dealer that told me if I'm a serious buyer he'll garauntee me 20g above msrp. I'm waiting on a couple of more dealers and see what they have to offer. But damn.... I'm not willing to pay over 10g mark up for the GTR. Guess I'm going to have to wait for next year and see if the price gets better. :(

Deals are out there, you just have to find them. I know a guy in the bay area that picked one up for only 10k over, he sold his place that same night to someone else for $5k over his price who was dying to have it and had only found it for 25k over. I can ask him what dealership if you'd like. PM me... I just spoke to him about it yesterday, so it might be too late but you never know :)

I hate to be the bearer of bad news Hayabusa, but he is right. It is unlawful for Nissan or, for that matter, any Automotive Manufacturer to determine what one of their dealers sells a product for, that's called price fixing. Let's keep in mind that there will only be 12000 GT-R's available for the entire world each year for 5 years. Whether you like it or not, there will be a premium on this vehicle and my bet will be that with the low numbers it may go up. Not trying to be tough about it, just stating the facts.

Just putting my 2 cents in...
HQ Nissan had the S&H, and devilery price built in the MSRP, just like Japan.
There is no Fair Market Value in Japan, the cars simply sold as MSRP. You may ask, whats so hard about getting a GTR-R in Japan if you are Japanese. Well, you have to first sell your current car (unless you have parking spot for 2 or my vehicles) the government in Japan is limiting the amount of vehicle on the road. Before buying a car you must provide them with document how many parking spot you have at your house/appartment. If you have the $$$ you may have a spots in a enclosed location...
Nissan made the GT-R to be in just about anyones $$ reach, there was suppose to be no wars over pricing, everything was suppose to be MSRP in the states! These are the facts, listen to all the Nissan radio broadcast and reports. Nissan USA dealers have alot of explaining to do!
The GT-R was suppose to be affordable to the middlie class and not the rich weekend toy...

"Nissan Puts Safeguards in Place as It Begins Taking GT-R Orders
Yeah, I read that when it first came out. Which is why I'm playing the cards the way I'm playing 'em on the GT-R. What amazes me is probably 90% of the GT-R dealers probably haven't read it or chose to ignore it. I applaud those dealers who have held to the policy despite the temptation to gouge. I hope Nissan rewards those dealers with GT-R volume to make up for the bottom line numbers.

I live in the St. Louis MO area and checked with most Nissan dealers, all of whom wanted a minimum of 15K -30K over MSRP. On a lark I checked with my local Costco auto buying service who referred me to the Nissan dealer they work with, called up that dealer, told them I was referred by Costco and was informed they would make it available for MSRP. Went right over and put my deposit down, filled out the preorder form (option 9/9).
The current estimate of number of GT-R dealers strictly following NNA guidelines (2/6/08) for GT-R sales (MSRP) is between 12 and 18 nationwide out of 691 dealers. All these dealers rapidly "sold out" their allocations. Those not following the guidelines and generally with markups above +$10,000 aren't getting much in the way of pre-orders and finding it difficult to meet their allocation. The net effect is suppression of US GT-R sales volume. We're starting to see a "market value" price of about +$10,000 as the upper limit for the overwhelming majority of potential GT-R buyers, and a large number of buyers only willing to go +$5,000 on price. A significant number refuse to go above MSRP. I estimate the current average "market value" of GT-Rs for the entire 2,500 MY2009 US allocation to be +$5,000. Any dealer over that will supress total GT-R sales volume. In other words, Nissan is in a world of hurt unless they re-allocate GT-Rs to dealers at or below the +$5,000 "market value." It turns out the number of "big wallet idiots" is far less than the dealers thought--the "big wallet idiots" are more likely to buy the new BMW or Porsche due to branding status.
The problem is very few dealers have actually figured this out. There is one clueless dealer in northern Cali still trying for +$60,000. Basically, that dealer's GT-R sales will be ZERO unless some huge sucker with too large a wallet walks on the lot. A good guideline for US "market value" would be at or below base MSRP for a Corvette Z-06 -- Z-06 and Viper buyers are the most likely GT-R buyers (people who would buy below $100,000 high perfomance cars). This is similar to the 350Z release where 350 sales exceeded Corvette (not including Z-06) sales. Nissan branding is highly competitive with Chevy and Dodge. Dealers got themselves too much into the GT-R hype and lost touch with their real US market.
Or the average GT-R buyer might be a little smarter Yogi...
Dealer excuses for mark-ups (it gets a bit nauseating when you hear the same old stuff over and over again):
We have to recoup our certification costs. Total baloney. A large portion of certification expense is improvement of the service department which benefits customer service and satisfaction across the board. Certification costs are spread across all new car sales, and not tagged solely on the GT-R. Remember the "halo" concept is that the GT-R benefits all car sales, and the dealer achieves a status above other non-GT-R Nissan dealerships. The whole thing is a "poor me" mea culpa to shift the blame for the high price away from them.
The "market value" is +$xx,xxx. Horse puckey. Nothing more than pure BS to sucker the idiots. We've all got a very good idea of the US GT-R "market value" and it's nowhere near Porsche 911 Turbo territory. The Nissan brand competes with Chevy and Dodge, not BMW or Porsche. See my previous analysis of GT-R "market value."
It's a very limited production car so we can charge more. Pure poop. Refer back to "market value." Charging more than "market value" reduces volume to below production levels and can actually reduce the net bottom line, particularly for the manufacturer. This excuse ties directly to the emotion ploy of "get one now at this price or you'll never be able to get one."

I have called a bunch of dealers, they all want 10-20k over, funny thing is they all have most of cars left in thier alocations still not sold. In a few months there will be a bunch of gtr on dealer lots and the price will start dropping. The gtr has more of a cult following tham the zo6 and will not be able to maintain above msrp sales. Most buyers would rather pay 70 for a z06 or 90 for a viper than 90+ on a gtr. I have an 08 ACR viper on order for 1000 over invoice and they are only building 100 of them. Viper Orders are done also, so you cant get one even if you wanted to pay 200000 for an ACR. Dealers are hoping for these crazy prices but most wont get even close to it.

your right that most of the dealers that are asking more than about 13k over still have them because I have been selling ares for about 10 over. I do know of a super silver coming into a dealer in august. I can help anyone get that car for 88k that is msrp plus 1500 dest & handling plus 3k for silver and 11k over. It will have premium package,ipod,floor mats

I almost bought a Shelby GT500 in April. The sticker was $43,000. I was going to have to pay $52,000. Everyone thought they would be down in price by now, but they aren't. I think the GTR will be similar. I think thats a real comparison. Just wait for 30 years when the cars are worth crazy money if you keep them nice. Watch Mecums, and Barrett Jackson for the 69 boss 429, 70 LS6 (My dad has one), and the 70 hemi cudas, or any Shelby from that era.

I paid $95k. I don't like the fact I paid 25k over msrp, but when you want something now you want something now.
One might start from msrp and think logically that paying 25k over that is insane. I look at a copy of the $253k check I wrote for my Gallardo Spyder and compared it to my $95k price of my GT-R and wonder why I paid so much for the Gallardo.
The GT-R in my opinion is a better car all around and worth the money. I'll tell you this, I'll never pay OVER 100k ever again for a sports car now that I've experienced the GT-R.
The name? I took off the stupid Nissan badge. Now its just a GT-R. Same car, without the name. Still a badass ride, still better than my Gallardo, still 150k less and worth every penny.

Do check back with your dealership, nissan just approved a mark up of 5k to 25 k in canada:mad::eek:. dealership are allowed to choose the level. This ha been confirmed through 2 dealerships here in ontario, where we havent seen price gouging before.
Let me know if u hear anything else.
Thanks :)

I had a deal with on of the dealers on msrp, here in onatario canada, but considring the low profit on the gt-r , nissan canada itself has approved the markup, that is crazyyy. Atleast my dealership opted for the least amount of mark up 5K. So i am happy. I want the car , so i wont even mind paying the 5k.

At this point in the program, $5 or 6 above for a 2009 is a good price in the States but will probably drop towards MSRP in the next 6 months.

I really do not think they will go to MSRP in 6 months unless you want a used one...but even the used ones may retain over...hard to tell right now...the cars are limited in production...
I think when the Stune and SpecV come out is when the GTR will be flooded with used ones for a decent price, but that is still 2-4 years from now...

Why even respond to a post like this, posted by a dealer, fishing for sales?

Performance Nissan is the only dealer in Washington that has any cars, and they are at $98,430 for the Premium Edition Titanium. They delivered the first car on Tuesday according to the newspaper.

SoCal Dealers around about the same, but you are shortly going to see cars sitting on the lot and then they have to check themselves.
Please, if you are going to buy a car...wait just another month and I'm sure you'll start seeing the numbers in the 80s...we need to pull together as buyers and take a freakin stance.
