I'm a little afraid to ask, but what is the "BJ discount"?

that's the funniest thing I've seen all day.
 
I think BJ's is similar to Costco or Sam's Club. No lipstick required.

would you name it BJ's? Isn't that sort of like naming your daughter Barbara Jean?

Intend to buy a 6s MT Sport Pkg, Bose. Don't have enough nerve to ask what anyone paid but do any of the Houston area owners know of a dealer that is working around Edmunds TMV pricing. Won't buy for another 30 days so haven't attempted to negotiate, just looking to save some aggravation.
Every dealer I've spoken to says they are moving them fast (surprise), I've been jumping around just so I can drive the damn thing; but I like U guys don't see any on the road.

Wait til the end of the month. I purchase my car in Houston and got (so I think), a pretty good deal. But here's some pointers (posted on another message board).
 
This is just a helpful hint to anyone who might be thinking of getting the leather interior in your Mazda6. One of my first concerns when I test drove my first Mazda6 with leather interior was that I didn't feel it was that comfortable or soft. I was pretty set on getting the Mazda6 before the end of the year, but unfortunately the only car that I liked on the lot (Onyx black with beige interior), didn't have leather OR a spoiler (the lip type). Because it was the end of the month (and the new year), the dealer agreed to put leather in it from one of his aftermarket suppliers. Believe me, the quality of this "aftermarket" leather is hands over heels better than the one's that originally come from Mazda. If you've ever sat in a Acura CL, then that is what it feels like.
 
So my advice to anyone considering leather is two-fold.
 
1) Wait till the end of the month, and
 
2) Have the dealer install the leather AFTER the sale, and make sure they don't try to charge you more than what's on the window sticker (even though it is a much better quality leather). Also, ask them to show you their leather samples and "feel" for yourself.
 
I guarantee you'll love your Mazda6 even more!
 
One more hint:
Waiting to the very last day to make my decision (of whether to buy the Accord or the Mazda6) probably cost me more than it should have, and yet I still think I got a great deal.
 
If you live in Houston, don't buy your vehicle with tint or let them put it on after your sale. I know of someone who does excellent work off of I-45 and Parker who can do it for $90.
If you live outside of Houston, check around for some window-tinting shops in your area.

MSRP for several more months... by jhtlag

Greetings; I'm new here but have been very interested in Mazda 6 and have been following the discussions for some time. (What's all this crap about Hondas?) If I were to "buy a car today" this would be the one. I went to the Washington DC auto show and one of the people who represented the display (basically a salesperson from one of the local dealerships) told me that Mazda has requested/required that the dealers hold the price at MSRP for three months. Basically, come back after February if you wanted to deal. This kinda makes sense as you don't want to introduce a new car and start discounting right away: at least start out with some sense of it being a premium car... and, of course, the stocks need to be built up so prices can be maintained while they are still in short supply.) I complained to the guy that I would would gladly pay $1k less than MSRP and he visibly got excited, as in "Come on down and see us in a couple of months, I'm the internet guy, etc." (Pretty dumb on his part as now I know to go lower ;^) Anyway, I'm a patient guy (sheesh, I'm driving an 11 year old Ford Escort (Protege twin!!!) and maybe can wait another couple months.

Get off exit 58 of the Long Island Expressway and you'll find a BJ's next to a Hooters. Go figure . . .
