My wife's new ride... - F-Body Road Racing and Autocross Forums

My wife now drives a car that has more power than my Camaro (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Here it is! A 2013 Infiniti FX37. 325 hp, 7 speed auto, and a 7500 RPM redline. What a freaking blast to drive.

We leased it. First time we've ever done something like this and to be completely honest, I don't know if we got a good deal or not. It seems like we did, but leases just confuse me.

I will say this, we had negotiated a price for a new 2012 FX35 (same car, the 37 is just a 2013) at dealer price, and basically top dollar for her trade in Murano. For what they paid us for the Murano, they will honestly be lucky to make anything at all. I don't think we could have done any better if we sold it on our own.

Once we came to an agreement, they then said we'd have to take something on the lot. We told them we were sorry, she only wanted a white one. Then they offered us a 2013 FX37 for the same price as we were standing up to leave. They had invested about 5 hours of their time into us and apparently didn't want to see us go.

So, we got a 2013 Infiniti FX37 loaded for dealer cost, $0 down, top dollar for the Murano, and monthly payments not much more than the Murano. I'm sure there's something hidden in there that we're missing.

Anyway, still not entirely sure what kind of deal we got, but I think we did "OK". Apparently we were the first ones to get a 2013 model. Seriously though, I love it. It's quite, comfortable, looks awesome (especially from the inside), is loaded with all kinds of bells and whistles, and when you click it to sport mode and floor it, it really pulls hard. Sounds cool too. And it actually corners really well. I am impressed.
