Replying to: redaix (Jan 30, 2006 6:46 am) 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. ZOOM ZOOM |

Replying to: ostiaantic (Jan 29, 2006 2:12 pm) 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.

Replying to: allfiredup (Dec 27, 2005 9:39 pm)  $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.

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. Mazda3s base: 16305 tmv 16349 AT2 5 speed: 855 tmv 900 2 AB SAB/SAC package: 340 tmv 227 Dest fee: 869 tmv 560 |

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?

| What does everyone think about this deal? $18000 + tax, dmv, $170 dealer fee for a black 2006 Mazda3 s touring, 5spd manual, moonroof + 6cd changer, compass+autodim, wheel locks, + cargo net. | |
It has 1300 miles and color is strato blue. Is this a popular color?

I have looked at ALMOST new cars before - but have not purchased one. I always wondered why did the owner trade (return) the car so quickly? Could be valid reasons - like they lost their job - but I also worry about all the reasons that are bad. Like major mechanical issues - or a wreck - In my experience the difference in purchase price was never that large - so I just got the new one. On one car - a Toyota - when I opened the glove box I found a warranty form that was filled out with the owners name & address - so I looked up the phone number and gave them a call. The guy was surprised to get a call - but said he returned it (after a fight with the dealership). The car had less than 500 miles and had to have its tranny replaced. The sales person told me the car was a executive demo - |

I had a message on my phone yesterday from the finance dept at the dealership. All they said was that I had to stop by to sign some papers as soon as I had a chance. I tried calling back to see what it was because I haven't been able to stop by yet, but the finance guy I dealt with wasn't there, so I still don't know what the papers are. What exactly could this be for? I bought the car back in late december with a rate of ~6.7%...All I can think of is a change in the finance rate or signing the title?? If this is a change in the finance rate (i'm sure it would be for the worse!), what happens if it's a totally crappy rate and I don't sign? Can I just give the car back and walk away? I traded in a car as well, so how would that work. Is the finance rate still negotiable?...Any ideas or comments?
