DxZoo · 09-04-2010, 03:38 AM

Interesting. I wonder how good of a deal you can get.

!Zar! · 09-04-2010, 05:09 AM

Sounds like their own ghetto cash for clunkers.

kalypso123 · 09-04-2010, 05:48 AM

honda offered my aunt an upgraded crv to replace her 2003,

after financing tho it turns out the same.

vtund777 · 09-04-2010, 06:12 AM

I get these all the time from my local Nissan dealer. It's just a marketing gimmick.

i know its just gimmick to get me in a lovely 2011 nissan cube lol, but just curious, did/do you drive a s14a?... because it says "specific pre-owned vehicles" and "..intend to obtain several pre-owned 1998 nissan 240Sx vehicles by september 6th.."

haha yeah! i didn't even think about that "little or no out-of-pocket expense and with a monthly payment that fits your budget"

VROOOM · 09-04-2010, 09:57 AM

They probably want cars that have a high resale value to them.

They sure as hell aren't going to be trying to obtain primered s13's, and some beat ass zenki's.

Mostly cars that they can, 'sell'. Which in our case would just mean Kouki's; or so I would think.

do it sideways · 09-04-2010, 11:38 AM

^ whats wrong with zenkis? lol

BoostSlideWayz · 09-04-2010, 11:41 AM

ha, i live near valencia haha. when ever i pass by the nissan dealer theres always like a red or white 240sx there.. almost every single time i pass by.

Iron_Zenki · 09-04-2010, 11:43 AM

^ ya same here whats wrong with zenkis :/

K_style · 09-04-2010, 11:47 AM

I just called Valencia Nissan.. I was "curious" about this special buy back..
Spoke to David and they will offer little below "trade in" value based on vehicles condition.
There is no way in hell people will sell their S14a for $3000 or less.. FUCK THAT !

davirene · 09-04-2010, 11:56 AM

Its a gimmick....all dealerships do it.........I was in sales for 4 years...

We pull all customers info from our database.....parts/sales/service

Then there all mailed out via computer.....

You can asked to be removed from the mailing list.....

Remember if you buy my car at full price...then I will give show you 5K trade in value for your 1K car... Its a numbers shuffle game....

They are worthless to the average consumer and even more so to the dealer.

So you're arguing half a statement?

shanes14 · 09-04-2010, 04:23 PM

we dont get those, but we just bought a sentra. nissan here in town offers a LIFETIME warranty and takes care of everything quite well. im very impressed, i figured it was just a gimick and bunch of bullchit.

Your mathematical statement is inconclusive.

I like my 2dr Camry.....

silviaguy240 · 09-04-2010, 07:00 PM

if you had an 88 altima and you were in the records you'd get the same letter but it'd say 88 altima.

They just change the template around with a different vehicle...I have a S14b (96). Business wise it's a smart way to get foot traffic on their dealership on Labor Day weekend. Let's just say I still have my 240...

h2v7 · 09-05-2010, 01:51 PM

hey i got a great deal i got a 2007 ford taurus sittin here for trade for your completly worthless 240

i mean NO ONE even likes 240s anyway...

Smurf_240SX · 09-05-2010, 05:26 PM

Yeah I got one of these letters too from a local Nissan dealership a while back as well.

FUCK THAT . hahaha

And yeah, the koukis have that "newer" styling making it more appealing to the average consumer buying it for looks alone. which is why i bought one

i just thought that nissan was on the hunt for koukis which is why i posted
