A good deal at this point, without grad cash, should still be about 5k (or more) below msrp.

12-13k range would be reasonable.
#179 of 265 P5 Prices in Eastern PA? by campersb Dec 13, 2003 (5:14 pm)
I visited a dealer in Allentown, PA who had a base (No options) P5, white, M5 tranny. Price was MSRP 17415.00 - 915.00 disc = 16,500.00 - 2,500.00 = 14,000.00. I thought the 915.00 was a rather cheesey discount considering they had only 4 or 5 P5's left and a lot full of new M3's. I was figuring on about 13,000.00 but the dealer says "No way." 915.00 was as low as he could go. So we shook hands and I departed. TMV after 2,500.00 customer cash is 13,041.00. Anyone with recent P5 buying experience in this neck of the woods?
#180 of 265 Help w/Mazda L.A. pricing by wantapassatnow Dec 13, 2003 (5:29 pm)
(I posted this on "Ask A Car Dealer" too.)   Since there's no Mazda3 Prices Paid board, I'm posting this here since the 3 replaces the Protege.   Today I was quoted a price for a 2004 Mazda 3i w/several packages. Invoice price is $16,567; MSRP is $17,940. Due to an alumni program I am in, the price for this car is set at $300 over invoice. However, this dealer said he had to also charge me a $102 dealer prep fee and a $150 "Los Angeles Assessment" fee. What are these charges, and are they bogus? He explained that the L.A. Assessment fee is charged to the dealer by the manufacturer and that it is not negotiable. He explained the dealer prep fee, but it sounded lame, so I forgot what he said.   BTW, on the invoice, the L.A. Assessment fee is only listed in the Invoice column. In the MSRP column, the L.A. Assessment fee is listed as $0.   Thanks for your help!
#181 of 265 Sounds bogus by lawman1967 Dec 13, 2003 (6:39 pm)
I just bought a Protege in LA and went straight from the invoice price on Edmunds, which perfectly matched the invoice the dealer had, added the discounts and incentives and then drove home in my new car. No hidden or mysterious charges, no bullsh*t.

Please note the "rules" of the discussion posted at the top of this page. You may name the dealership, but you may not name salesfolks. Read the other instructions there as well.   Thanks.
#185 of 265 Galpin by lawman1967 Dec 14, 2003 (12:12 pm)
is where I bought my car as well. Go through the internet department, they didn't give me any BS.
