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.

jfritsch - first I thought the 1500 - 2000 off is msrp will be difficult, until I saw someone buying the Mazda 3 Sport for $17,165 (actually by markman post #3200, and thank you too markman).
 
For the 08, do you think I can offer $2,000 below msrp for a Mazda 3 S Touring Auto?
 
Curious, how can they go below invoice that much? I was quoted a Civic EX 08 (that I am going to buy when it comes anytime this week) way below the invoice, actually in the range you have been talking about. I get surprises everyday when I see some postings that I thought impossible.
 
When I saw your postings, I got curious and the Mazda 3 is now in my list. Thank you for the info. It is worth trying right? I will try a $2,000 off msrp. And if they agree, it is now between the 3ST and the civicEX.
