They are ugly but if I leved in extreme conditions I would definitely use them. Here in California I'll stick to carpet.

The $82 MSRP is based on a price where the cost was Lower than the current dealer cost...

MSRP on them is $90 (but new price tapes come out on the 1st so hopefully it stays the same)

Shipping on the mats is about $12-$15 for the G37.

Glad to see you actually got the COUPE mats though! I have seen a couple of coupes with the sedan mats in the rear...

They can not be purchased individually, so all 4 must be purchased in the set.

Ah, so the price did go up some. Good to know.
I'm pretty sure they're the coupe mats - haven't had a chance to actually install them yet. Maybe tonight if the weather holds, after the dogs are walked.

The price sure has since it was listed on their web site...

As noted on the bottom of ALL INFINITI and NISSAN price lists:

ALL DEALERS ARE FREE TO SELL AT WHATEVER PRICE, MARK-UP, OR MARGIN OF PROFIT THEY MAY CHOOSE.

What's up Jason. Sorry, I've been busy lately so haven't had a chance to come in to pick up those mats.

Should be coming on soon though...

For those of you who purchased G37 Floor Mats from me in the STONE color, please check the back of the mats for the part code and PM it to me.

Thank you!

I don't think I've ever, or rarely ever, seen any merchant charge over MSRP let alone such an outrageous amount. Car dealers don't have any more shipping overhead than anyone else. Sure you may not stock as many mats as Walmart, but not less than the little guy shops, and they don't charge over MSRP either.

Are you suggesting that the MSRP (placed on the mats by the manufacturer) is less than the cost the manufacturer charges the retailer?? I find that hard to believe...

Anyway! I'm assuming folks are replacing the carpeted mats with the rubber mats (at least that looks like what they are in the picture)? Are the carpeted mats a lot more to replace? They look so much better, don't really want to replace em

That's true of any merchant. MSRP is not a requirement, just a suggestion. Just that no one does it... except car dealers lol.

So when you walk into a dealership, and you ask for the trim piece on the corner side of this other thing, you know what the MSRP is?

This is why you should buy parts from people you know and trust (hopefully me! )

Oh I absolutely agree. That's why I live by the old saying "trust but verify".

In other words always do your homework, especially when buying from a dealership since the majority of them live by ripping you off

No offence
