You had agood deal. I'dlike tohear from others about best prices as I want a GT (need the Xenon), don't care if 4 or 5 dr, but want manual. hard to find so how low can I expect? Offered 3% above invoice best so far. How are dealers selling below invoice if no breaks to dealership? Also never cared about color before as long as not black or red, but the 3 colors are too flashy for me, so silver nd gray left. Does the driver seat rise up or down, forgot to check.

Try Car Help Canada. Join and they will give you the price you should pay and the dealer to go to. What I did was I went to a different dealer and offered $200.00 less and they sold me the car.

Does Mazda still offer recent graduate discount? by redaix

Hi,
 
i plan to buy a Mazda3 i touring. One of my friends who bought his mazda last April said that Mazda had discount for recent college graduates. However, the dealer told me that there is no graduates program anymore. I am wondering if this is true.

The college grad rebate ended on July 31st, 2005.
 
In its previous form it was able to save an additional $500 if you were graduating from a two or four year school within the next six months. Or if you have graduated from a two or four year school within the past two years. Of course, documents had to be verifiable.
 
There is no public college grad rebate anymore. Mazda has gone to some sort of direct marketing based on school registrars and specific criteria.
 
I'm unaware of what the exact parameters are.

Yes, I negotiated the price in advance. This was after two visits and three test drives (an i sedan with manual, an s hatchback with auto and an s sedan with manual). So he knew I was serious, and gave me a reasonable price. And there was no fee for ordering the car - that was his idea apparently when he couldn't find one the way I wanted it at an area dealer.
I still think the problem is, I don't want the moonroof package. Seems impossible to get a hatchback without one (and a manual).
I was promised a call today. At this point, I may bite the bullet and get an automatic.
Oh, and you've probably seen that there is a Velocity Red hatchback at a dealer on Staten Island. I'm guessing it doesn't have the options you want.
Happy hunting.

Hey, allfiredup. Hope you're still reading this thread. You received a tremendous deal on your M3--$783 under invoice is amazing. I'm curious about your true OTD price--your TOTAL payment. OTD $16,500 would have put you much further below invoice than $783. You used a coupon/voucher also, right? Did you finance and/or trade-in? I think you've received the best deal among buyers on this thread so far. Thank you--all of you--for sharing your info. We all want good deals on our cars, and it takes a certain amount of courage to put your paid prices up--no one wants buyer's remorse and second guessing.

Destination fee by sarahp333

I checked out the Mazda 3s at a dealer out in Eastern Long Island. The price i was given was close to what the TMV suggested, However the destination fee was way over: 869 vs. the 560 TMV destination charge. How could that be, and how can I argue with that? I'm still waiting to receive an offer from another dealership.

Help. Still trying to find a manual GT w/o extras. Every car in area (Indiana) has expensive moonroof option. How are you finding below invoice prices and where do you get coupons? Is anyone finding a GT manual w/o options?
