advice needed (buying nitro soon in canada)

Hi guys,

I will most likely be buying a Nitro in the next week or 2 and so my problem is whether to buy the last of the 07s and get a lower interest rate on the financing or get an 08 and have to pay more interest.

Are the 08s worth the extra ? I cant find any details on what options are added here in Canada and it seems weird that the showrooms have some now but the website still lists the 07.

I was leaning towards an 08 since hopefully many of the problems which plagued the 07s and needed tsb's would have been fixed by now at the factory but its always nice to save some money and get an 07.

My other worry was depreciation, my 07 would be a year old as soon as I drive it off the lot.


I'd appreciate anyones thought on this.


Thanks

That would depend--to a great extent--whether you intend to keep the vehicle for a short or long period. If you intend to trade the vehicle within a relatively short period of time, a 2008 would very possibly allow you to realize the lesser expenditure.

From what I have seen, there are two new color choices (a new blue and a metallic black) and a variance of option packages. Otherwise, the models are the same.

I believe those issues were addressed long ago. I have encountered no problems whatever with my R/T, which was manufactured in January, 2007.
