whatever the list price is?

No one pays list in Australia unless its a pre order or very shortly after release.

The answer to your Q depends on "when". If you want a 2011 now expect circa 5-10k

If you want a 2012 early next yr, expect to pay close to list.

I poicked up 1 of the last 2010's 3 months ago and got 18k off

planning to buy it xmas time.. saw one for 174990 on carsales.com.au new from a dealer, would i be able to get any more off?

thanks

surely actual negotiations with said dealer will give you a better result than some forum heresay

Whats wrong with trying to get a feel for the level of discount available out there?

Maybe the market is like the US where people pay (well) over rrp. (obviously its not!).

Did the level of discount I obtained offend you ?

Ps Martin knows me and could verify that i'm not a bs artist!

my reply wasn't aimed at you but rather the op, so no need to get on defensive

the amount of variables in this thread....state, time of the year, dealer stock levels, current economy, etc makes any "oh you got ripped, i paid x at this dealer" argument invalid

Oh, ok. But the OP's Q is still valid. As are your variables.

So the answer is - yes discounts are certainly available on these cars. My vehicle and another (white) 2010 (maybe still on carsales.com) at high $150k drive away suggests maximum discount levels obtainable.

But yes, discount up to individual dealer on the day.

Just makes me laugh that US guys are paying up to $10k over list.

10K over when RRP is 80K. I cry at that.

I think I might pick up a 2012 in late 2013! 38k discount, that's awesome. Can you tell us what you actually paid Wardski?

$159k on the road. The Oct 10 build (considered a 2011 release) GT-R had been on the show room floor @ Magic Nissan for 8 months, and only 43kms on the clock. Arrived to my door on the 2nd Dec and absolutely immaculate condition.

Considering the RRP is $168k before onroads and LCT, I was laughing. Would have liked the extra power and daytime LED's that the MY11, 2012 model has, but beggers can't be choosers! :)

That's a great buy! Congrats! Thanks for letting us know what you paid, it's a great yard stick to follow. I assume you're getting 3 years warranty from date of delivery? Going on what you paid the prices being asked for used 2009 ADM's on carsales with less then a year's warranty are just way too high! It also shows how much Nissan Australia are marking up these cars at new! A bloody disgrace! It will interesting to see what you will be able to pick up a MY 2011 mid way through next year.

Full 3 year Australia wide warranty, and Magic have a sister dealership in Brisbane which I'll be using for servicing. The 2009's are well overpriced, but then there are people out there with HUGE loans on them. I'm sure with all the upgrades on the MY12's (plus warranteed launch control) the MY11s will go for a steal.

Re-read what I said

"Considering the RRP is $168k before onroads and LCT"

Your statement is incorrect.

You should have written - Considering the RRP is $168k after LCT and before onroads.

LCT is included in the rrp of $168k, onroads are not.

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
