My Offer on New 2014 Limited
 
Okay guys, want to know everyone's opinion. I have done a lot of research on this forum and looked up a lot of deals everyone else have received.

Here is what I have been offered for a 2014 leftover.

Silver Limited
Popular Package #1a
Dealer added Paint Protection
Dealer added cloth/Leather treatment .

25k Out the Door....

I know that seems pretty good, but I really wanted Black, so this is almost opposite color. Am I stupid if I don't take it?

It's also the last 2014 they have. So do you think they have more room to work?

What is everyone's opinions?

That's a good deal. Assuming tax, etc. is probably in the $1500 area, that means you're buying it for $23,500. That's roughly $5k off sticker?

that is an awesome deal, i would take it.

MightyMeeple 03-18-2015 04:22 PM

Yes I agree it's a great price. Do NOT buy it if you really care about the color....you will always regret it.

I guess on the flip side, you could take the money saved and get it wrapped in any friggin color you want? But in general, I wouldn't purchase if it isn't the color you want.

Sticker with dealer options is hovering around 29k... It is a co-workers brother That is the salesman, so he's giving me a great deal.

That's what I'm debating. Silver was my last choice beside Red.... So if I get it will I regret It? That's an awfully hard deal to pass on. I might regret that more.

That's a great deal. I got black when I wanted the blue or the 10 series color. I don't regret it. The color I wanted was almost 5k more.

I think the silver looks great. It may grow on you.

Here's another approach, if you're a stone cold car buyer like my old man. Take this offer to another dealer with a black car and use it to negotiate. The worst thing they will say is "NO, can't match that price."

BTW, which part of our fair state do you call home?

Throw it in the mix, I'm leaving for vacation in 2 days. Wasn't planning on purchasing anything till next month.

I live in Wilmington, just a hop away on 40!

I think a "normal" good deal for a leftover 2014 Limited would be about a purchase price of $25k, so with tax and fees you'd be in it for more than $26k. You'll need to decide if you'd rather have a color you want and pay about $1000-1500 more or save that money and enjoy the silver. I think it looks good on the BRZ, personally.

I was in a similar situation when I bought mine. I did not want the rally blue color and according to the dealer that was all they had. It was easy to play hard as I did not want that color, I wanted the dark gray or at least something more discreet, but they would not take no for an answer. I got them down quite a bit then finally said no for the last time and walked out. Guy caught me as I was getting to my car to let me know they "just received a dark gray limited"... I was pretty pissed after them wasting my time but after I saw the car everything was fine in the world. When all was said and done I had to pay around $1000 more but got the color I wanted. No regrets.

Jfheisenberg 03-18-2015 06:14 PM

That sound very good for a deal. But like other people mentioned, if that's not the color that you want, i would not take it (but what just me)

Something similar happened to me when getting my series blue, for example there was a dealer that offered me the car in WHITE for 28K, i really wanted the WRB so i paid the extra $500 in a different dealer and got what i wanted.

When I was looking for a 2014 Limited, I really wanted blue, but the dealer gave me a deal on a silver I couldn't pass up. Now I really like the silver. Dark colors are so hot in the summer in North Carolina, and they are harder to keep clean. When you put the silver in the sun, the curves on the car cast shadows on the silver paint that really show off the car nicely.

Seems like a ok deal if you don't care about the color. I only say ok, since when I'm dropping 25 large on something, I'd like to get exactly what I want.

Try a website like true car to see what a 2015 in the color you want would cost and then decide what color is really worth to you...

Probably cost 1500-2000 more for black and the extras that come w/ the 2015's over the 2014's (sharkfin, exhaust tips, dash trim, keyfob).

silver on the BRZ looks awesome, makes me wish i waited 3 years!
