Several members have bought their S2Ks new from this dealer at that price. They had no complaints about their cars. Unfortunately, there are several complaints about this dealer's service. Do a search and you can probably find them to PM them.

Others have used this ad to get their dealers to match the price. That is another successful technique. It's probably best to try this route to avoid the poor service at Grand.

The best deal that I've seen so far is $29,000 and that was in Boston last winter. Several people were fortunate to get that deal.

However, I think that this winter will be even more weaker than last year. The combination of weather, economy, MY03 introduction, and competition (New Z3, SLK, 350Z Roadster) will likely affect S2K sales significantly.

If you can wait for winter, you can probably get a really good deal.

Glad to hear that Maveric. I won't be buying till late winter early spring and am hoping to get a good price this info will be excellent to bring to a dealer when I buy.

I got mine last year for $29,800, incl. delivery fee and some wheel locks. Not from Grand, but I used their price as benchmark when I talked to my dealer. Since then I have met one other guy who bought at the same dealership for an even better price (I think they threw in a cover and some other extras as well), though he had a trade-in and financed part of the car, so you never know how/if they screwed him in that area.

Oh, and my car had five miles on it when I got it.

I would be phsyched to pay under 30k. With this info it looks to be possible. Dealers I spoke to won't give me a price now because when I am actually buying it will be an 03 model and they are saying they don't know if there will be a price increase.Due to a lot of factors like Maveric stated I don't see prices going up so I am going to shoot for below 30k.

Prices are falling again. And I do like the way they advertise the car.
