Find Nissan Dealers in Houston, Texas

Folks in TX can figure out how much above or below invoice they want to pay and then send internet requests for their vehicles to dealerships all over the state. Odds are someone will meet or beat your best expectations. I started in AUS - no one would deal. Sent 10 dealerships in Houston my request and bam! I had a new Murano. Don't settle for a city when there are so many alternatives. Sure, you'll have to drive to pick up the car (don't forget Carmax for the trade - this worked for me too - my winning dealership beat Carmax's quote) but it's worth it if you can save $1K or more. Good luck.

I think the price is high but I don't know about Houston. It seems the price in TX is usually higher than other part of the country.

I am in Texas. Houston, to be more precise. My best price was from Clear Lake Nissan, on the Gulf Freeway, and that was not an "S" model. Where are you getting the quote of $18.7 OTD? That is about $900 cheaper, and on a better model.

heth247: I live in Houston, TX. The $22,300 is after rebates ($1750) and before our trades (we bought 2 identical Rogues ... got $13,500 for an '09 Honda Civic LX, and $16,000 for an '08 Mercury Mariner Premier VOGA Edition). The sticker prices differ, depending on region. There could also be a couple of stand-alone options ... moonroof, AWD, some aftermarket gadgets, etc. My thought is that the difference between the '10 and '11 models don't justify the huge price differential ... besides, the SL package on the SV model includes a moonroof. I haven't had much luck with them ... they've leaked, rattled, and in one instance, both. car4523: We haven't had a moment's trouble with either of our '10 Rogues. From what I've read, most of the complaints deal with the CVT transmission. Apparently, the issues have been addressed, since Nissan warranties it for 10 years or 120,000 miles. We think it's terrific. As for looks, that's a personal matter. We've had ours pinstriped, which does make a difference. We like the rounded look, as opposed to the boxy appearance of SUV's like the Escape. I've owned an Equinox, and really liked it, save for the cheezy interior and cheapo black bumpers. We test-drove the '11, and found the four-cylinder version to be underpowered. If you read my review on www.epinions.com you'll get a better idea of why we chose the Rogue over the competition ... and we drove all of them! Sometimes it's all about the hunt!! Al

This was fantastic advice, thanks so much. Totally changed our strategy, as we were previously looking at the 2.5S, very frustrated that we couldn't get Bluetooth for less than $25k. We almost bought the Sonata GLS because of the Bluetooth issue (would've been $22k OTD for base GLS auto). The 2.5 (no "S") is a screaming deal, can't recommend it highly enough. True that it's only available in 4 colors (white, black, silver, slate). You retain keyless entry and pushbutton (keyless) start, but do lose "intelligent" key for the doors/trunk. Only other loss is the stereo head unit and very minor trim differences (seatback pockets, passenger visor mirror, trunklid carpeting). I called a local dealer here in Houston, offered $17,500 OTD (incl 6.25% tax here in TX). Settled at $18,000 with tint OTD, which is equivalent to a $16,683 purchase price (included $2k rebate). Maybe not bottom-dollar, but pretty decent. I think this was fair, and precisely $2,000 less ($20k OTD) than a non-optioned 2.5S (i.e. no convenience package, etc). We just put in a double-DIN Pioneer nav/bluetooth/backup camera for $500 installed, absolutely couldn't be more pleased. Didn't have to put in speakers since they're included, which saved a few bucks. Feel like we ended up with a $25k car for $18,500 OTD. Love these forums, so much valuable info.
