Why don't you go and try and double the current discount?

And get laughed at... trying to buy a car with best price, not insult the dealer

Seems you are a bit rusty since the last car purchase

I would try as hard as possible to get it for that price out of the door.

The 2017's have enough changes that I would absolutely bet that dealer is willing to go lower.

Often, Internet-posted prices like that are firm and nonnegotiable. In general, if the dealer will go lower, then fine...you've saved even more....but it's not a given. Tango Red may or may not be correct about the changes for 2017 forcing the dealer to go lower...you won't know until you try, and the worst they can say is no. If the dealership does go lower, though, make sure that the salesperson or business manager isn't slipping something else or charging you for that you aren't aware of...things like paint-sealant, a service/oil-change package, extended warranty, etc....

Last, remember that buying a car like this is one thing...insuring it and running it may be another matter. What you save up front. at the dealership, may be spent further down the road. Check with your insurance company (or other companies, if you aren't satisfied with your own) for policy-costs....you can bet that policies for a car like this won't be cheap. (GEICO, in general, has has lower rates than many other firms, but they can be picky about who they take). And if your county or state (like Virginia, where I live) has an annual personal-property-tax based on a car's assessed-value, you're going to pay quite a bit in those taxes until depreciation starts to set in after a couple of years. Fortunately, those property taxes are deducible on your Federal tax return.

Isn't a 2017 close to $115K with options?

Ask for another $3-4K off the current offering, but the offered price looks really good.

Just make sure it was a demo car, that was beaten with a stick.

That may not be ethical.....or even legal. Even in the (sometimes) shady business of selling cars and supply/demand economics, there are still some ethics and rules.

I think it's a good deal for a brand new car and don't think they will go much lower than that, $23k off MSRP is solid. If you like red get it, if you are settling for a color you don't like move on. I bought a 2015 black edition with 150 miles on it for $80k 4 months ago.

I like the 2017's a little better but they raised the prices of these even more where msrp is around $111k which is too much for a car that hasn't changed much in 8-9 years which is evident in the GTRs lowest sales ever last month. IMO $80k MSRP is the sweet spot for a GTR.

I like the red, seems like a pretty good deal already. Have you asked on the GT-R forums???? Also what does a used 2016 or 2015 with like 1-2k miles on it go for???

Everything is negotiable. Including the "buy now" price.

Price for all-new seems aggressively low, not sure how much lower it can go. I went to do some used listing searches to see how 2016's were coming back and as a used car, the price lines up with the local market's listing price, maybe a few grand high. Would definitely make sure it's new, but directionally I'd agree with S2000toIS350

Here's a similar used listing.
