2008 hatchback sport manual. Got it for 700 under invoice. According to edmunds invoice with destination is around 17500. Price paid was around 16700. OTD with TTL was 18200. No 0% financing but I have good credit so 1.9% ain't too bad. This was Russell and Smith Mazda in Houston and the transaction was very smooth and got it at a great price.

Yup, Denise's "salesman of choice" I think is Dino and he actually let me test drive a 3 even though I would not buy that car that day. Maxon really gives you great customer service. It's just a pity they don't have what I want at that time and I don't know all about dealer to dealer trading where the dealer can get the exact car you want from another dealer.
 
I could've saved a few thousand more with Maxon.

Purchased a 2007 3 S Touring hatch. Black ext w/ 5sp. Only options were the rear step gaurd and wheel locks. (also the PZEV version of course)
 
Paid $18,300 in July, 2007.
 
(we were inflexible about the color and man trans) So we could only find this combo in Sothern Cal - we live in SF Bay Area. We negotiated via phone - took about 3 minutes! I flew to Long Beach ($100 one-way ticket) the dealer picked me up at the airport before the dealership was even open. I got to the dealership at about 8:20am. All papers done and I was on the road for home before 10:00am!
 
Absolutely easy and great experience! Can't say eough good things about them.
 
Browning Mazda in Cerritos, CA.
 
A side note - Mazda's online Chat Assistant was a huge help in helping locate the exact car we wanted.

FYI, you can't get just rear side curtains on the Mazda3--they stretch from front to rear. Which is really what you want, right?

Don't even mention that you have a trade-in to the dealer before you reach a price on the Mazda. Car salespersons use what's called a "4-Square." They even have a form that is literally divided into 4 squares. It's really designed to misdirect your attention from one aspect of the sale to another. As in - if they know you have a trade-in, they'll use that to adjust the selling price of the new car. More for trade-in = higher new car selling price. Also - never get into a discussion on what sort of monthly payment you want to make. Same rule applies: Aways establish the price you are willing to pay before you discuss any other aspect of the deal.
 
Good luck!
