New car buyer HELP!!!?

Ok people im going to get straight to the point, I'm in the market of buying a fairly good used vehicle most likely an Infiniti G35 05-06 or Infiniti FX 05-06. I make $2,000.00 monthly and have about 900 dollars for a car not and insurance, plus I am married so abruptly we bring in about $4k a month. My question is how do I go about in the best way to get a deal, online or in person? I know everything about these vehicles from the exterior to the interior and engine since they are similarly the same. I was looking for a way to finance a 94-98 TT Supra but since they are so old it’s really hard to finance them so I need to search for something else unless my mother or grandma with good credit history can finance for me. I have a 2003 Nissan altima 2.5s with 110,607 miles on it for a trade in or to sale, which used to be my mothers but she could not take care of the payments so I took over them without any paper worked changed, its valued at around $3,800.00 and is paid off. I’m only 22 years old and have fairly ok credit around 600 but I just started working for the IRS through a tax appraisal company about a month ago and it requires a lot of traveling and I’m wanting to get a great vehicle that will last me the next 6-8 years. I have $2800.00 for a down payment and also the 03 Altima for a trade in. On top of that I need to get a car a.s.a.p. because my wife is going back to college this coming up semester, I really want the supra cause I know more about that vehicle than any other car out their but I gotta be real with myself and get something I can actually get. I really do deserve a nice vehicle and am still hoping I can get that TT MK4 supra. I need some really great honest answers peoples? Oh yeah one more question if my wife has gotten a car before and got it repoed and just got another one last year would it be best to finance under her name or my name ( she is in debt about 24k and I was surprised she was able to get a vehicle. I am helping her pay for her loans since she is my wife and we are settling the loan's with them and I think that was the only way my wife was able to get a vehicle. THANKS GUYS HELP ME OUT WITH UR OPINIONS :D

1. The way to get the best deal is to go to a dealership. Once you are sitting in front of a sales person, they will take you more seriously. It is at that point that you can tell them what you are willing to pay, or what you want your payments to be. You should also go toward the end of the month (this week would be the perfect week to buy a car).
