Replying to: cheapmonkey (Aug 27, 2008 11:15 pm) 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.

Hi guys, I just got quoted 16,700 before tax for a 2009 automatic Mazda 3 I Touring Value, no extra options. Is this a good deal? The OTD price by my calculations would be about 18,300. I am in the Bay Area (San Jose), CA. |

Hi Guys, On September 2, I just bought a 2008 Mazda6 i Sport VE (with moonroof) at $16,800 OTD in Dallas TX, but got 6.99% 36 months finance deal as first new car buyer ($3000 trade-in and $4000 down payment=$7000 initial payment), the total interest is $1100 for the rest $9,800. Is that a good deal? I plan to pay off as early as possible, say 12 months, in order to save interest payment. Anybody has thoughts on payment issue so that I can increase my credit score sharply? Thanks! |

| got a OTD of around $18,500 for a 2009 i touring value edition with no extra options in Richmond, VA. 3% tax here. before fees and whatnot (300 dealer fees) they went down to $100 over invoice. I didn't buy. | |
| Here in Cary NC, I was offerred $500 below invoice on 08 or 09 3's. I'm also trying to drive a 09 Honda Fit sport 5 speed today. What sucks is when you're ready to buy with no trade (sold it), you can find a car to save your life. But when you have a trade in, everything's available, and you car isn't worth jack diddly. I had to rent a car yesterday. | |

Help!! guys, I just got a quote for $20,300 (before tax, tags, and dmv) for a new 2009 4 door, 5 speed auto S GT w/bose option. I live in the philly area and this quote is a well below other quotes in the area. Is this a good price? The sales lady said we beat all competators and have the lowest price, but I'm having a hard time figuring out what the lowest price should be, as she seemed a bit too easy to negotiate with, so I bet the bottom line isnt close to the figure above. Please help with comments or suggestions. Thanks! |

Over Labor Day I tried to get a 2008 5 door manual in Atlanta with 0% but none available. E-mailed a few dealers and bought a 2009 5 door “S” touring in metro grey mica with 5 speed manual, stability and traction control, auto dim mirror with compass and homelink…it was on the car….., dealler added wheel locks, rubber cargo mat and extra key and key fob for 17950 plus tax. Sticker was 19,770 not including the $50 cargo mat, $50 wheel locks and $125 extra key and fob. Radio displays outside temp but did not see this listed on sticker so it must be standard Tax was 7% and doc fee was 399. Invoice on Edmunds is $18,543 with the options above. TMV price from Edmunds is $19,795.Figure I got it for about $200 below invoice if I include doc fees in price. They made a little. Dealer holdback is 2% and there must have been some end of month incentive My out the door was $19634. I have 4.4% financing at credit union for 36 months but will pay off in 12. Rented a couple of Mazda 3’s on business trips and was impressed so got this for my son to replace a vehicle that was totaled by a woman talking on a cell phone. Bottom line is about 2k above a 2008 if I include finance costs and the included options I did not originally want. Needed a car yesterday so I felt I did pretty well for doing the whole deal, from starting to look to buying, in less than 5 days. FYI Upromise cars gave me the best starting price.. You need to be a Upromise member to use the site. While it does not reflect real time inventory, it does get you a starting price that when I used it was 300-500 below invoice. YMMV as I was at the end of model year and end of month. Really wanted my son to get an auto 5 door 2008 which was a whole lot less esp with 0% but he would not bite. He has a full ride to college so the car is money I don't have to spend on tuition. 1 car equals one years tuition, room and board. I figure I am even since he is going into his senior year
