After much shopping around: Gaithersburg Mazda Gaithersburg, MD 20879 MSRP: $ 22,815 Lowest Bid: $19,650 + TTL After a week of negotiating, I backed out at the last minute and did not buy. I love the car, but after long consideration, I decided it's just too small for me. I literally had the paperwork in front of me when I backed out. I feel bad about teasing the dealer, but I feel good about the decision. There seem to be some great deals out there right now. This was a fantastic price.

Replying to: rbbrock (May 26, 2008 9:27 pm) The s and i differ by alloys, abs,side airbags and 2.3 liter engine? Plus whatever else only you can decide if its worth it. The i touring value edition has a msrp of 18000 as you describe. Has most of the features of the S with the 2.0 engine. There are tons of them around here. The lots should be full of them where you are too. I've got quotes in the 16000 range on these. They are techinically 2008.5 models I think. Seems like a good deal with the mid 15000's or less being a possibility. If the other quotes are on a 19700 car or so, they are nothing to write home about or jump on. You need to email at least 10 dealers to hit one or two who are behind on numbers end of month. Good luck --jjf |

I've tried VW GLI ,Gti Iand Audi,BMW,and when I find what I want I'll know it. I want low end torgue,stong clutch ((mazda) doesn't have.ABS, fogs,sunroof,6 spd.moon roof door edge guards thron in and front to reag mud guards. I have a feeling I'm over 10K than a Mazda. Never feel  sorry for a dealer.

This month I bought a 2008 Mazda3 Touring (not 08.5) from a Chicago-area dealer. For financing, they offered me the bank rate, not the 1.9% I have since read about. My credit is very good, and I put down a hefty down payment. Should I have been eligible? The web site seems to say so, but I know there is always fine print.

| Wondering if anyone knows what the MS3s are doing lately - it looks like the last post about it here is getting a little old. There's one that's MSRP $22,975 (early 2008 production, sport trim, no options) that they're saying they'll sell for $20,475. | |

I purchased an 08 Mazda3 iTouring Value Edition at Wayne Mazda (only option on the vehicle was wheel locks) for the following. Wayne's fees are high-- but their offer literally knocked the competition out of the park. The process was very straight forward, responsive and honest. I should have challenged some of the extras -- but I still think I did well. base: $14733 Destination: $635 notable extras: -Security Etch: $199 (after getting the great base price--I didn't want to deal with arguing this one away--it's a default optional line item at Wayne) -doc fee: $299 -Reg Fee - $200 Out the door price: $17265 and 1.9% financing. |
