I just read that I can post a dealership name but no salesmen.   Dealership: Murray Mazda & Chevrolet in Gresham, OR. Just e-mail the internet salesman. He told me the invoice price and said any offer above invoice would be accepted. When the car was delivered to me the price was simply invoice.   Best wishes.

I was the buyer in the Boston area with a similar charge based on location. Since it was on the invoice, I wasn't too worried about it. It sounds like you have the same situation.   My invoice was a web printout too, but it was from Mazda and not the dealer's specific site. As others here have mentioned, the dealers seem to get their invoices from the Mazda USA site so there's not much to be done about that.   Definitely check the PDF on the mazda/ford partner site and compare to the invoice. You shouldn't find any surprises.   This sounds a bit odd: "Also, when he put the purchase price in he deducted $299 as a dealer conveyance fee from the quoted invoice price and then added it back where it was pre-printed on the order form." ... not sure what that's all about, but if it doesn't change your quoted price I'm not sure it's worth losing sleep over.   Good luck!

Thanks so much for telling me about your experience. I am going to contact the Gresham dealer today!
#278 of 3683 Wait time for car by flabuck Mar 09, 2004 (3:32 pm)
I went to my local dealer this past Friday and made a deposit on a Winning Blue 5 door with 5 speed and the ABS system only. Agreed to a price $ 600.00 over invoice. Any idea how long it will take to find the car in So. Florida.
#279 of 3683 I got the add car Price! by rjison Mar 09, 2004 (4:55 pm)
I went through 4 hours of torture but I was able the get a Mazda 3 Hatchback at the Add Car Price of $14,985! It was last Sunday, and Long Beach had a record setting hot day about 92°F. Everyone was basically at the beach and not the car dealer. It was 3 to one dealer to customer ratio that day. They dropped the price because I was Adamant about trading in my 2001 Chrysler 300M. They didn't want to touch it because I had it lowered with springs. They lowballed my asking price by $4k, I said no, and after about 40 minutes of sitting around they offered me the 3 at the Add car Price! You know, the car that was magically sold an hour before you get to the dealer or its Mauve or Puke yellow. They again tried to low ball my 300M another $2K, I said forget it and they said, no keep the Chrysler and We'll give you the car for $14,985...Sold! Specs: List Price $18,890 Winning Blue, 5 Speed, Black and blue cloth seats, Moon Roof, 6 disk CD changer, Cruise control.

#281 of 3683 price by mazo Mar 11, 2004 (2:13 pm)
i just wanted to post my "out the door" price i got on my Mazda3. it's a MAZDA3 s 4-Door, 5-Spd Manual, 160-hp 2.3L DOHC 16-valve I4-cylinder, BLACK LEATHER, MOONROOF & 6-CD PACKAGE SPORT PACKAG. no wheel locks or cargo net or anything else. my total out the door price was 18,623.00 US Dollars. hope this helps someone. my trade-in was rediculous, so i don't believe the made much if any of a profit on that. after coming to this site, cars.com and carsdirect.com, i felt like i got a very good price. also got the 3.9% financing. I wish anyone else good luck in getting your mazda3 at a good price. maybe this will help guide you.

Congrats on your new 3, I'm waiting for the exact same configuration on mine which should be here in a couple weeks. What state are you in and did you have to order yours or did you just pick it off the lot?
#283 of 3683 ish21 by mazo Mar 12, 2004 (3:17 pm)
i'm in alabama. the car was on the lot. i searched the mazda.com site and found it. by the way, nothing added on the loan such as insurance of any kind or anything like that. the cash and trade-in put my down payment at $3850.00.
#284 of 3683 Good experience at Mazda by allstarme Mar 12, 2004 (8:24 pm)
Just got home from my local (well not the closest) Mazda dealership. Bought a Titanium Gray 2004 Mazda3 S with the sports package, leather seats, and the ABS package for $17,740 (plus tax and tags came to $19,000). It took some haggling but I believe this was a great deal. The only problem is that the dealer has to locate one for me. Overall a really good experience. Good luck to anyone else out there.
