Is Ordering End-Of-Month The Best Option? by danielt70

Coming into December I was set on buying a Honda Civic Coupe EX. Because of this board, I discovered that Mazda is bringing back the Copper Red Mica color on the 3's, something I've always wanted. I'm now looking to buy a Mazda.
 
I know buying a car at the end-of-the-month (specifically December) can be an advantage, padding a dealers' total numbers for the month, let alone for the year. I would have to order this car, seeing the changes are coming in January 2008.
 
Would the dealer, any dealer, get credit for my sale if I order the car in the last week of December or do they get credit at the point-of-delivery, whenever the car arrives, possibly 8 weeks later?
 
I figure I can drive home my best deal if I have leverage for tacking on another sale before the year ends, but ti would be an order and I wouldn't get the car for a while.
 
Does anyone have any answers or experience with this? Thank you.

Why so cheap? by danielt70

I just offered "cost" to a dealership in Western New York for a 2008.5 Mazda 3 Grand Touring Automatic Transmission (invoice minus holdback, as well). They JUMPED at it. Should I feel lucky or did Consumer Reports fail to include some unadvertised incentive for the dealership? I just called them and they said "no, they didn't." Keep in mind this car hasn't even been built yet - it's not like it's sitting on the lot or anything. Any one have the same experience - what gives?

Best deal in Seattle Area? by robotica2

So far the lowest quote I've received is $21,095 for GT hatchback with bose system from University Mazda. Not a huge savings off MSRP. Anybody know where I can get the best deal in the Seattle Area?
Thanks!

From my experience thus far, I have been getting the same quotes that you have. Right now, UMazda is the best with $100 under invoice. But I'm talking to three dealers at the moment and Doug's in Lynnwood is saying they can usually beat any price in the area. I am visiting Lee Johnson Mazda in Kirkland first tomorrow and I am going to call Doug's and UMazda while I'm there to see if they can beat what they offer me. Just gotta play the game to get the best price.
Good luck with your game.

2008 Mazda3 S touring sedan AT by vroom2

Just bought a 2008 Mazda3 S touring sedan with AT and it turned out to be less of a hassle than I thought. I ended up paying just under Edmunds TMV. They tried the usual trick with the 'preparation' fee and the like but that was soon nixed. I'm impressed - for an econo car this is one sweet ride.
 
There was a kid at the dealers who thought he was getting his new MS3 at invoice but got duped by paying some bogus dealer fees. Remember folks, apart from tax, title and tag there should be no other fees.
