#2929 of 4314 purchasing '05 hatch/concerns by cartera Jan 04, 2007 (7:53 am)
Replying to: KarenS (Dec 30, 2003 7:28 am) Got a price of $15k for an '05 hatch, standard equipment but optional airbags added and 19k miles. When I went to test drive, it wouldn't start - battery needed a jump. Salesman says this just happens sometimes when they sit - I have never had it happen. It had only been at the dealer since 12/12. Had a terrible grinding in the back when I drove off and I am aware of the problem with the rear brakes so I assume that can be fixed. Carfax says it was a commercial lease, that was sold at auction and it sat at another dealer from Aug to Dec and then came to this dealer. Car is priced below a similar model with no extra airbags and more miles - I see issues but is there any reason to think I can't get these problems solved since I am aware of the TSBs and won't buy it until it checks out? It is certified so I get the rest of the 50k bumper to bumper warranty, dealer adds another 12k and then I get the remainder of a 100K limited warranty.
#2930 of 4314 Good Deal?? by pipi_theta Jan 07, 2007 (11:10 am)
I've just bought my 3-i touring MT today (with no extra options). I got about $400 below the invoice and the OTD was about $168XX. The APR was 1.9%. The whole buying process was painless and smooth. I just wonder if it's a good deal. Any comments??? Replies to this message: aviboy97 (Jan 08, 2007 11:17 am) nathar (Jan 13, 2007 8:21 pm)
#2931 of 4314 New to forum, getting MAZDA3 I sport automatic by nicoleswack Jan 07, 2007 (1:33 pm)
Hi everyone I'm new:)   I have been looking at the 2007 Mazda3 I sport automatic The options I have selected are solely air, and abs brakes. I really only want the car in black or phantom purple.   I have been quoted an out the door price of 16,100$ for the 2007 mazda3 I, automatic with ac and abs with tossed in features of tinted windows and vin etching. I was quoted this price after going back and forth between 4 dealers and this is the best price I have gotten so far. This dealership has the car in stock but only in grey and they have 6 in stock. The best quote I recieved from the only other dealership that has the car in stock was 16,400 but the car only has ac and would not come with abs, tinted or vin etching.But its purple.   I was also quoted 16278 "out the door" from a different dealership for the same package however this car has a spolier.But this dealer wants a deposit "today" because they don't have the car in stock nor do they have the car at all in any color so no matter what I would have to wait. and I'm not willing to put down a deposit hearing all your horror stories and because I don't want to purchase the car for another week to two weeks.But this dealership seems to be the one willing to try and get me the best price?   What do you guys think?

Replying to: pipi_theta (Jan 07, 2007 11:10 am) The APR was 1.9%.   I take it you took the 36 mo term.   The special financing on the Mazda3 now is incredable. I am rather surprised they did it. All should take advantage. Replies to this message: nathar (Jan 13, 2007 8:21 pm)

Replying to: aviboy97 (Jan 08, 2007 11:17 am) Any factory to dealer incentives out there on the Mazda 3's? I was hoping for something considerably less than invoice, but I don't want to waste time getting blood from a stone.   Any rumors of better deals next month? President's Day always seems to be such a push for car sales.

2007 M3 5 door, 5 spd, NO sunroof/6 cd package. Sticker $18,271 (after that ridiculous $595 destination crap). Offered $17,229 and got it. TTL were all within normal amounts. Took discounted financing. Tom Masano in Reading Pa - salesman and dealer were great.
#2936 of 4314 2007 Mazda3i 4Dr Auto w/AC by tufei Jan 20, 2007 (7:27 am)
MSRP is $16,170, got it ($200 below invoice price + TTL + 6.25% Tax) at Austin, Texas.   Test drove and thought it's okay to buy, so got it with 1.9% APR financing, this promotion ends on Jan 31, 2007.   The experience is very smooth. Thanks to all of your posts that helped me getting this price.
#2937 of 4314 Just Bought a 2007 Mazda 3 Sport Hatchback by bill112 Jan 20, 2007 (4:52 pm)
Just drove it home.   My wife has a 2005s Sedan that we really like. I wanted something a little different for the sake of variety and was particularly interested in the new 2007 Elantra. Went to the Hyundai store to check it out--horrible dealer experience. And, they say that Hyundai isn't producing 5-speed (manual transmission) Elantra's yet.   Went to the Mazda dealer and had a very, very smooth experience. Test drove several vehicles, they gave me "best prices" without quibbling. Bottom line, I got the Mazda 3 Sport hatchback, 5-speed, 17-inch alloy wheels, ABS, etc., for $15,300. Out-the-Door with tax, title, license, etc. for $17,296. For reference, this is in the San Diego area.   Anyway, we've really enjoyed the wife's Mazda 3--have never had a lick of trouble out of it. Looking forward to a similar experience with this new car.   Regards, Bill Replies to this message: backy (Jan 20, 2007 5:26 pm) nthe (Jan 23, 2007 11:05 am) bill112 (Jan 26, 2007 2:21 pm) fedriver (Mar 01, 2007 11:37 pm)

Replying to: bill112 (Jan 20, 2007 4:52 pm) I've seen stick Elantras at dealers. Some salespeople will say anything to get you to buy what they have in stock now.   But since you like how the Mazda3 drives, you'll probably like your new hatchback more than the Elantra--plus the 2007 Elantra doesn't come in a hatchback.
