Replying to: pencho5 (May 22, 2009 10:16 pm) I got some better offers with lower initial prices but when I did ask for the final monthly payment it turned out that the dealer had put more fees in taxes and this was easily visible since I was doing the 36/0.0% financing and the math was very simple |

Replying to: pencho5 (May 22, 2009 10:16 pm) And they included $2,500 rebates ($1000 loyalty and $1,500 Mazda Cash). The dealership is in Georgia and the salesman was very green and slipped up and told me that they've only sold 1/3 as many cars this month than they have last month, and that some senior salespeople were leaving saying they have never seen car sales so bad in their careers. I literally told the sales manager that's the most I would pay, after figuring out the tax and other fees, and they came down to that price. Car deals are easy if you don't absolutely need the car right then and there, and are fully prepared to walk away, and not just threaten it, if you can't get the deal you think is right and fair - if that means pouncing on an overstocked dealership in times of economic distress, all is fair is love and car sales, as car dealerships have NO problem marking up cars in high demand, in both bad times and good. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

You can get additional $500 with a preferred buyer card that mazda is giving to some of it's customers. Anyway, I'm very happy with the price and with the car - it's very nice and drives very well.

What that salesman told me about car sales was the understatement of the year - I just read TTAC and it's amazing how much Toyota and Honda sales have dropped, and Porsche is literally near bankruptcy?

I just purchased a 09 Mazda 6 S touring + convenience package. The negotiated sales price that we agreed to was $24,500, plus they also offered to pay us $800 dollars to pay off our last few payments of our current car after the deal was funded. The question that I have is that knowing that there is a $1500 customer cash rebate, in which I wanted to use as a down payment... shouldn't the rebate go towards the 24,500 negotiated price? so that we would only owe $23,000? What they ended up doing was putting the $1500 over our negotiated price.. so our price on the contract was $26,000. Is that resonable? To me it seem like they stole our cash rebate and then made us pay the taxes on it. You have to keep in mind that the Dealer also has their own $2000 manufacturer to dealer incentives as well. I thought that wasn't fair.. but of course that was after the fact that I signed the contract without reading all the number carefully. What do you guys think? Fair? can I still do anything about it?

Replying to: ynotnech (May 30, 2009 6:50 am) I assume you signed the rebate over to the dealer at some point, but have you taken delivery of the car yet? If not, I don't know what the consequences might be for backing out of the deal.

Replying to: jeffyscott (May 30, 2009 12:43 pm) I did take GAP insurance from them since I do now owe more than the car is worth, but i found that my own insurance company charges 3X less for the same coverage.. so I guess I will save money there.
