Replying to: biotech007 (Nov 01, 2008 7:12 pm) Did you buy 2008 mazda i touring value 4 dr with automatic transmission? I am planning to buy the same model, but the price I was offer are very hight 16000 plus destination charge and TTL. Did you buy with cash or a car loan. If it is latterm did you finance your car through the dealer or another bank. Mazda is offer 0 apr%. But the dealer said I can only get 0 Apr with MSRP, which I think it bull. It will be my first new car, and I am a green hand. Hope you can offer some insights. If you do not mind, could you let me know your dealer. thanks much, |

Hi everyone: I am buying my first car. After some research, I have decied to buy 2008 Mazda3 I touring value edition 4dr ( auto) standard. I have no experience about buying a car. Hope some of you can help. The MSRP is 17155. I've read some posts on this board. Someone said for this model, should be able to get it 2500-3000 below the MSRP. Is it true? I also want to get 0% APR (36 months) Mazda is offering. SO how much I should set for as my target price. can someone advice? thank you very much in advance! Linda

The MSRP is $17,643, and the offer I got was $16,776 with either 0.0% financing for 3 years or 3.9% financing for 4 or 5 years. luckyforever1: If the dealership is telling you that you need to pay MSRP to get the low financing, tell them "No deal" and walk out. I think you'll find that before you can drive to the next closest Mazda dealership, they'll call you. I mean, think about it, given our current economic times, cars aren't exactly flying off the dealership lots these days. Stick to your guns, it's a buyers market out there. Best regards, Shipo P.S. Learn to drive a stick and save yourself $900, the 5-Speed in the Mazda3 is a pretty sweet shifting transmission.

I'm looking to get a 5-door HB, 5-speed, Grand Touring with the Bose/Sunroof package. MSRP for this car is 22,600. Some posts above reference 2500-3000 off these cars right now, but the Edmunds TMV says people are paying 22,005 for the car optioned out this way. Does anyone know what I can realistically expect to pay? I'm located in Southern NH if that makes any difference. Thanks in advance for any help. |

Replying to: luckyforever1 (Nov 16, 2008 5:20 pm) how can I start?any tips?" Is it very difficult to learn to drive a stick? Hmmm, I don't remember it being all that difficult to get the basics of driving a stick; granted I learned how to do that some three decades ago and my memory of the process may be a bit fuzzy.  As for learning, the basic start-stop process is best learned in an empty parking lot with an experienced stick-shift driver as copilot. Once you get the hang of starting and stopping, you will graduate to the streets where your education will continue. I've found that if you are at all in tune with mechanical devices, learning a stick is easier, however, I've taught many folks over the years, and even the most non-mechanically inclined people can get the hang of it and then eventually master it Before you take the plunge and buy a car one way or another, you might want to tag one of your friends and ask them to give you a couple of lessons. You should know within an hour or two how easily it will come to you. Keep us posted, Best regards, Shipo |
