I bought it back in December, so I'm sure that accounts for some of the discount I managed to negotiate. My car stickered for $18,100 and the driveout price was $16,000 exactly. That was after a $500 Mazda Zoom Zoom coupon that I had and didn't include sales tax. I had to go to Knoxville TN (from Atlanta) to get the deal I wanted on the exact car I wanted. IT was worth it though. I paid $875 sales tax here in Georgia, so my driveout was actually $16,875. I got the 3 s Touring 5-door, 5-speed manual, Titanium Gray, no options. I got the Touring because I wanted the side airbags. Since the 5-door has the 17" wheels standard, they air bags are actually the only things the Touring model adds to the standard 's'. Anyway, for under $17k out the door I got an amazing car. After 16 years of driving, this is my first non-Honda/Acura vehicle and I couldn't be happier with it. Kinda wish I'd sprung for the sunroof/6CD changer though. |

Replying to: villebillies (Jul 08, 2006 1:21 pm) I would just double check with the dealer before you drive down there. There are many tales of folks getting one quote and a dealer tries to pull a fast one once they have you there. That said, that is a great deal, and if it is for real I would jump on it fast. If you do put a deposit down make sure it is refundable. If it is not, I smell a rat.... |

| Has anyone heard how much Mazda is going to raise the price on the 2007 3S? I want a 3S Touring 5-door, but I can't find an 06 now in the Velocity Red color that I want, so it's either take one in Silver or Gray, or wait for an 07. I know the warranty is going to change, but I don't know that that would offset the disappointment of not getting the color I want (plus I'd like to get one with leather and not have to take the moonroof with it). Will the price increase be substantial? Apparently Mazda isn't telling their dealers about any increase as of yet. | |

How much of an increase could there be in the price of a car that is not really that expensive to begin with? More importantly, if you go with a color you don't really want, you will probably regret it in the long run. I can see a person walking up to the car everyday, saying "I should have gotten the red one." When I am undecided about a major purchase, I always feel it is best to wait. Things seem to work out better that way. Of course, that is just how I see it. What is changing about the warranty? |
