What is VPP (Vehicle Purchase Program)? is it for current Infiniti Owners?

Infiniti will have them ready to roll out in December; however, they will not release them until the stocking levels of the 2009s get down to a certain level. They don't want the dealers stuck with a bunch of 09s on the lot when they roll out 2010s. Expect them 1st week of the new year or last week of this year.

We will find out the December incentives on Dec 1st. As for prices, sometimes when supply starts to dwindle the prices will go up. Many folks on this forum who have been looking for a G37 with Tech know what I mean - certain colors and packages get limited and the price may increase a tad. For the most part though prices do get better as we enter the close out - mainly because Infiniti gives more incentives.

G37 Convertible Get an 09' or wait for a 10? in Texas

Seeing that there may be new Maple wood accents on the 10' Coupes and Sedans I am thinking about waiting for the 10' model. I wonder if the same changes Infiniti is making for the 10' Coupe and Sedan will be applied to the 10' Convertible once it comes out? The only two dealers remotely close to me who will discount off of the 09' Convertibles are West Houston Infiniti (1.5K off MSRP), Gunn Infiniti (1K off MSRP), and Austin Infiniti. Austin usually does not discount, but they have a few they are trying to get rid of that have been on their lot a while. I called Sewell, Southeast, and Clearlake Infiniti in Houston and they all would not discount whatsoever. I also called Crest Infinity in D/FW. Crest said they would discount 2K off MSRP for out-of-towners. I did not check with Grubbs or Sewell in D/FW. I find it interesting that once it came to payment quoting I receive somewhat of disparity between the different prices. For Austin they told me they would do a 42 month less with 10K down plus my first month's payment making it a 41 month lease on a G37 Convertible with Premium, Sport, and Navigation. List Price of 51K and some change. The payment would be $858 per month on this lease. This was cheaper before than what they quoted me which was in the 900's. So it appears that are doing some form of discount. I asked Austin how much it would be for the 39 month lease and I was told I would have had to put down over 13K to maintain the same $858 per month payment. Austin has told me that the tax free sales tax leasing is not currently going. For West Houston Infiniti they would do a 39 month lease plus first month's payment on the same type of car with ADDED wood trim and kick plates for $870 per month. West Houston has told that the tax free sales tax leasing is going. So who knows? WHI has not gotten back to me yet as to what the payment would be for a 41/42 month lease. Blah forgot to add that both lease figures were quoted at 15K miles per year which is going to increase the payment of course. For the deals I have a 08' Nissan Titan truck currently owing around 29K thus my 10K plus down to make up some of the negative equity. Both dealers would be giving me 17K for my truck which is about right since the KB is from 16K-18k. So I don't have a problem with that. My question is do these figures sound right or am I smoking crack? I am tempted to put more money down just to get the payment down to at least $775 per month which is what I am paying on the Titan. Let's say I put enough money down to cover ALL the $1,200 more of negative equity and whatever the TTL is therefore making the trade EVEN or like someone who walks into a dealer just with the TTL down without a trade. What payments would be good for someone who has Tier One credit with Infiniti/Nissan? I owe so much on the Titan, because I was dumb enough to trade a 06' Nissan 350Z Roadster with damage on it in 07. I have also considered doing a 72 month purchase as well. Then again might wait until the 2010's come out if I can find out if they will have the same minor changes that the 2010 G37 Coupe is having. I have also been having trouble getting my extended warranty off of my 08' Titan truck in order to trade. I went to a local Nissan dealer to cancel it in October 7th and was told it would take up to six weeks. Well it has been six weeks and it still is not off yet. Though I did not check my payoff this week. That's another thing. A few weeks ago Austin Infiniti told me my warranty was off of my truck so now they could offer me lower payments for the $858 they quoted me, while West Houston Infiniti has told me when they checked on my warranty it said it was still in processing. I am thinking maybe the salesperson at Austin made a mistake and just thought it was off of my truck loan which is was not. Apparently the only thing a customer can do is get a dealer to calls NASDA to see if the warranty was canceled it. Does nothing to call Nissan Consumer Affairs. Any advice or help is greatly appreciated! I hope my post here is NOT too confusing or disorganized.

My Deal

G37S 6MT Coupe with Prem & Nav $37,154 OTD before taxes. Dealer had to find me a vehicle and it took some work, so I was willing to pay a bit more to save myself the hustle of going out of state. Infiniti of Tampa, great experience, both times (bought two G37 coupes from them this year :)
