#3642 of 4324 pricing in central va by lthric Aug 20, 2008 (6:16 pm)
I am looking at a 2008 mazda3 hatchback sport edition in black. I got a quote from the dealer today for 20000 OTD. It was 19110 before TTL. I think this seems high, but I don't know if it's because of where I am geographically. It seems like most of the people in this forum who have gotten lower prices have been in other regions. I believe the invoice is about 18500 according to consumer reports. The salesman was absolutely unwilling to negotiate (today at least). The dealership offers perks like free oil changes for 3 years, free inspections for life, etc., and these add some incentive for me, but I am feeling stubborn about accepting this offer as he wouldn't even throw me a bone of taking a few hundred off. I have emailed a couple of other dealers, but they have not responded with actual quotes. Opinions?

Replying to: irvinemom (Aug 18, 2008 8:45 pm) That is an excellent price for the touring edition. I wish I could get the same price in Central Ohio. Do you know the car's invoice price? FYI, I was in a dealer's auction on Tuesday and bid on a 2006 Mazda 3i touring with 12000. It was sold for $14,000 (trade in value $11,000). I walked away thinking that the used car market for small 4 cylinders is in high demand and we are better off purchasing a new car because you are only paying a couple thousand more than a 2 year used one. Good deal. Replies to this message: irvinemom (Aug 23, 2008 9:26 am) asustech (Aug 29, 2008 7:07 pm)

Replying to: hemlor (Aug 18, 2008 9:16 am) Also in your opinion is the GT a better value than the GS. Have you checked the Promotions page in the Mazda Canada site under Ontario and selected "August Offer Summaries"? The 2008 Mazda3 Sport GS has a $3700 discount; "MSRP now starting at $17,395".

Replying to: diexodos1 (Aug 21, 2008 6:23 am) The MSRP for the 2009 Mazda3i touring value edition, automatic was $17,795 + $50 for the wheel locks, and $670 for the deliver, processing and handling fee = Total MSRP $18,515. We bought it for $16,679 or $1,836 off the MSRP.   Please note that the 3i touring does not have the side curtains, foglights, antilock brakes, etc. that the 3i touring value edition has. The side curtains are important because the i touring wasn't rated very high in terms of safety. We bought it for our teenage son and thought the safety feature was important. We ran across the same issue in So. Calif. The price for small used cars is just a couple thousand cheaper with a lot of miles, so we bought a new one. Good luck.

#3647 of 4324 '08 Mazda 3S GT pricing by docbrown44 Aug 26, 2008 (8:29 am)
Hi folks,   I am looking to buy an '08 4 door Mazda 3 s GT w/bose option. Since it's the model year end and last week of the month I figured I'd get some good quotes. the Lowest I got was 21,939 for the Stromy Blue color. The thing is on KBB the invoice is 20,788, on edmunds its a bit higher. the price of $21,939 is everything but tax & tags. is this a good price? What tactics should I use to lower the price OTD?

(manual window)     3. $ 16,984 (OTD) for 2008 Mazda MAZDA3 i Touring, 0%APR & 0%DOWN.     4. $ 17,750 (OTD) for 2008 Mazda MAZDA3 i Touring VE, 0%APR& 0%DOWN.     Actually, I prefer MAZDA6. Is that possible that I can get better deal in town. For example $17000 with 0% APR or even less than $17000 with 0% APR? Any thoughts? How about the other 3 offers for MAZDA3? I will buy this week, really need help. Thanks a lot!!! Replies to this message: autonomous (Aug 27, 2008 12:55 pm)

#3650 of 4324 good price for 09 4dr GT in bay area? by cheapmonkey Aug 27, 2008 (11:15 pm)
hi folks,   i'm being offered the following prices in the bay area, CA for the 4dr grand touring auto with moonroof/bose cd.   2008 $23,580 out the door and 2009 $23,360 out the door   the 08 has the spoiler. this is based on the employee s-plan as well. Any one got any good quotes lately in the bay area for the GT?   the dealer also wants to charge about 600 to put the spoiler wing on the back of the 09 which seems very bloated.   thanks a bunch Replies to this message: roadburner (Aug 28, 2008 11:51 am)

Replying to: cheapmonkey (Aug 27, 2008 11:15 pm) the dealer also wants to charge about 600 to put the spoiler wing on the back of the 09 which seems very bloated.   The last time I installed a spoiler on one of my cars I had my local body shop paint it for $75 and I did the installation myself. OnlineMazdaParts.com has the prepainted lip spoiler for $280 and the prepainted wing for $320. Installation shouldn't take more than an hour or two, tops. If you aren't confortable doing the job, I'm sure that you can find a good body shop that will do it it for significantly less than your dealer is charging.
