Newbie...Just put deposit down...GOT VPP any qustions???

XXX_Titan · 06-24-2005, 03:18 PM

I'd like to say hello to everyone. I just put my $500 deposit on my Titan, LE, CC black. Out the Door w/tax,plates,fees =$34,800

Wondering how? Give up? My best friend from HS & now works at Nissan as an engineer. And guess what platforms? Titan/Armada. So he got me the VPP price. That is Dealer invoice minus 2.87% plus all applicable tax and such after that.

So I'm putting 20"wheels with 305/55/20 Toyo OpenCountry AT's. Ordering the PRG leveling kit probably next week.

Oh, if none of you know yet, the 2006's will have 15 more HP.

Congrats and welcome to the forum. When will your truck arrive?

Congrats, Man!

What did they do to get 15hp more?

AgTitan06 · 06-24-2005, 03:44 PM

34 grand...sounds a little high to me. I just got a quote for an 05 CC LE with Big Tow, floor mats, and sliding bed extender. Quote was for $29,920, and with the rebate it is $27,920. Sales Tax would be $1780 making the price under $30,000. I'm hoping the price you were quoted included DVD, Navigation, and sunroof.

Well...Actually the VPP formula is:
(See it here - VPP Program )

-Dealer invoice
-Minus VPP discount (2.87%)
-Plus dealer added options, Security Plus, etc.
-Plus 2.5% delivery fee of dealer invoice after VPP discount has been subtracted
-Plus destination and handling charge
-Plus marketing assessment as applicable
-Minus applicable incentives
-Equals paticipant's purchase price

I also purchased mine thru VPP. Good luck with your purchase...

Pick it up on Monday night. We'll wont arrive till thursday. I didn't want the big tow. Reason: final gear ratio in big tow gets you at best 14mpg. Gets you 2000 lbs more towing. I wont be towing anything that big ever. The one time I do tow something 7000lbs it will be enought truck to do it. So the hit in mpg for the tow I wasn't willing to take.

Under $30K for a '05 CC LE? That would be $10K off of MSRP. Come on.....were not talking a chevy here.

phlydude · 06-24-2005, 09:10 PM

I don't know what your talking about with the gear ratio. I get 16 MPH consitantly during my rush hour commutes and I'm still in break-in.

Well, the CC LE I am looking at has Big Tow, floor mats, sliding bed liner, and here was my quote: $33,360 is the MSRP...After rebates, the price I was quoted is $27,920 --> $5,440 off MSRP. That's with a $2000 rebate, so $3440 off MSRP, that sounds about right to me.

I didn't think the VPP could be given to anyone.
Usually the person using the VPP must show a Paycheck or ID badge for the company they work for.

This sounds right for a 4x2. Straight off the nissan web page MSRP for a 4x4 is $36,070 without any options. Its the 4x4 that makes the price go way up. my $34.8K is 4x4.

Yes, the VPP you do have to have a business card or a copy of the employee that gave you the VPP number.

I paid $33,000 + TTL ($36,850 MSRP & $33,279 dealer invoice) for my 05 LE CC 4x4 with Big Tow, floor mats, under-seat storage bin & sliding bed extender. I took the 2% financing in lieu of the $1500 rebate.

I took the 3% financing for 60 months. That's what they had this month.

rudy · 06-25-2005, 07:24 PM

I paid 36,500 for my CC, LE, 4x4, big tow, off-road,side airbags,nav,sunroof, dvd system, bed extender+divider,sunroof wind deflector.

It was production may 05...I am not sure how good of a deal that is as I keep seing figures in the mid 20s etc...

Armada · 06-25-2005, 10:22 PM

I want to know more about those 15 extra horses for 2006. What is changing? Where is the power coming from? Are they just re-rating the engine, which is admittedly under rated to begin with, or is there something new?

dslater524 · 06-26-2005, 02:28 AM

jeez...I thought I got a good deal. Guess not. Mine is a CC 4x4 SE with popular package, Cpts chairs, center console, and rockford fosgate, plus Big Tow. It was a low mileage '05 Trade In (original owner got pissed at Nissan for backordering parts)...only 1700 miles. I paid $27,700. Oh, and it's Red Alert...I think the color is what made me buy it.

I haven't actually checked my mileage yet. I figure I'll wait until I put Mobil 1 in it and an air hog filter. But after reading another thread about RPM's at various speeds, I am a little confused. My speedometer reades 72-73mph at 2000 rpm which pleases me if it's right. I've heard that with the Big Tow I should only be getting about 58mph at 2000rpm. Maybe I have the mirrors and the trailer hitch but the Off Road gearing. ??????????
