I just bought a 2008 Mazda3 I touring with the side impact airbags options. Here is the breakdown of what I paid:
 
According to the purchase papers:
$16890 for the vehicle itself
$59.00 tags
$400.00 taxes
 
$17349 out the door.
 
Harrelson Mazda in Charlotte, NC said they would always give you invoice price. They also gave me $4000 for my trade that had 165000 miles and body damage on it. Ended up financing at 1.9% for three months. I think it is a great deal! My younger sister is coming up to get her 2008 GT later on this year. Also they waived the bogus dealer processing fee of $499.50 since my father haggled with them so well.

I am talking to an Ohio dealer; the car is 2007 s Sport, options moonroof / 6cd pkg and side curtain bags; MSRP is 19870 (includes 595 delivery). Dealer says there is a 500 rebate, (which I can't seem to confirm anywhere) plus i have S Plan pricing (and the dealer knew I had S Plan pricing before mentioning the 500 "rebate"). This would bring the price down to 18,050 which is 1,820 off of MSRP? Is this a good deal at this point in August? I am wondering if the S Plan pricing is doing anything for me at all, or if I could do better just bargaining to take a 2007 off the dealer's lot. Appreciate any input.

2007 mazda3 i touring AT w/ safety package by weathercaller

Bought this car on 18 Aug 07 in Seaside, CA (Monterey Peninsula) -- in white w/ beige interior. Paid the following:
Sales price = $16,145.00 ($2000 off the MSRP of $18,145)
Document prep fee = $55.00
DMV electronic filing fee = $28.00
License fee = $170.00
Calif tire fee =$8.75
Sales Tax = $1174.50 (CA 7.25%)
Out-the-door total = $17,581.25
It was a simple transaction as I had no trade-in (my previous car had been stolen) and paid cash in full. I did decide to add an extended warranty, not included in the above: "Total Care" 6 yr/100K -- initially offered at $1777, then dropped to $1377 when I declined, and then talked down to $1277. Don't really know if that's a good deal or not, but I'm happy with the car and price paid for it, and the purchase process itself at the dealership was fine.

I'm curious why you opted for the extended warranty for the Mazda3 as it has had a record of good reliability.

2008 Mazda3 Hatch S GT with everything, but navigation unit by gishapir

Got a really good deal from Pierre at Manhattan Auto Group. He was great to deal with and knew plenty about the car even though he's mainly a Ford salesperson. On to the price:
 
OTD sale price = $22,232.00 ($796 off Invoice). Since I wanted a '07 for 0% APR, but there were virtually none around like I wanted, they gave me a nice price on an '08 and then 1.9 APR won't break anyone's bank.
 
Car includes a few minor accessories like moon roof wind deflector, rear bumper guard and cargo tray.

Invoice prices by dan_b_gilbert

I'm looking at a 2008 Mazda3 s Sport hatchback automatic. Edmunds quotes invoice as $18,261, but three dealerships now have quoted the invoice as $18,411. Has the invoice price changed recently? Should I be able to negotiate a price lower than the invoice price? Should I expect to pay _anything_ else on top of this besides tax and DMV fees, or can I confidently argue anything else away?

$21300 for Mazda 3 GT...? by vtbrian

Hello all,
 
Was recently quoted $21300 for a 2008 automatic 5-door mazda3s, grand touring, with the 2mc package (Moonroof, 6-CD and Bose Audio) option. This includes freight, but not taxes, tags, etc.
 
The lease price was $7300 with the one-pay (upfront) option. I am leaning towards the leasing option generally speaking anyway.
 
Would appreciate input on whether or not this is a good deal or if I can/should bargain for better. I did note that $21300 was only about $65 over invoice for that car and package.
 
Welcome your input.
 
Cheers,
brian

What do you mean,..."the lease price was $7300 with one-pay (upfront) option."
 
What is the length of the lease? How many miles per year? Residuals? Money factor?
 
Thanks.
