mazda has a $1000 hiden dealer incentive now. but if you use this incentive you will lost 0% financing.
for 0%, mazda 3 should price at 2000 below MSRP, without 0%, mazda3 is 3000+below MSRP

Thanks you very much for your responses. I am looking at some drive schools in my area. They charged 40 - 60 hr. I am thinking to take some class with them. Hope I will be able to do it. That way I can save some $$$ on the cars.
 
Someone also told me that once you go with Manual you will never go back hehe.

To Hakky - I just traded my 07 Mazda3 Touring for an 09 Mazdaspeed3.Went to
   Werner's first and they(including sales mgr.) were the rudest dealership I have
    ever tried to deal with - losers from the word go. Also tried Tulley's but they didn't want to give much for my trade in which was low mileage - mint cond.
Finally went to Ira's in Danver's and these guys were the most professional in
every aspect,gave me just what I wanted(after good spirited haggling) and
delivered my new Speed3 to my door(Merrimack,NH).I had to pay for the inspection sticker but the deal and treatment they gave me was well worth it.I would
recommend them to anyone in the Southern NH - MA area hands down. Made
the whole transaction a real pleasure!

Orca3- I'm in Merrimack too. Small world!
 
I stopped at Werner yesterday and got a similar impression as you, although I was mainly just there to see what they had on the lot and get a feeling for whether they might want to deal. The guy was an a$$, to be polite, and gave the impression that the 3's were just flying off the lot (in this economy, yea right). He also basically told me they didn't want my trade (98 A4, 164k miles), and that I should put it on Craigslist and come buy a car from them after. Yea buddy, I'll do that.
 
Do the Mazda dealers swap vehicles amongst themselves if someone wants a option/color combo they don't have on the lot? I bought a Nissan a number of years ago and they "sold" me a car that was on the lot of another dealer. Does Mazda do this as well?

My dealer(Kings Mazda in Cincinnati) traded with another dealer to get my Mazdaspeed 3. Kings had the car flatbedded from Cleveland at no added cost.

Hakky - If you see an 09 True Red with an IRA sticker on it around town that's
       mine(although my son's been hogging it). I believe there are 2 others
       of the same color in town too - one's a 2007 and the other an 09 from
       Grappone's. Question - Did the salesperson at Werners have poofy
       blond hair?
 
       As far as dealers transferring cars - the 07 Touring that I had was purchased
       at Lunenburg Mazda and when I told them I needed a black one they went
       out of their way to find one and actually had it transported from NY.
       When I went to Tulley's in Nashua, I asked if they could obtain the True Red
       from IRA and they said it would tack on another $500.00 to do it - KMA!
       I gave Tulleys' a shot on my last 2 Mazda's and they couldn't(wouldn't)
       compete with IRA or Lunenburg Mazda - their loss - I'm still having them do
       my service and warranty work - Ha!

2008 Mazda s touring - quote by obleu
Nov 26, 2008 (4:02 pm)
Reply
After initial email inquiry, quoted the following:
 
2008 White Mazda 3s touring with moonroof/6 cd package and Sirius
Telling me invoice is 20207. Sell for 19207 plus fees ($1000 rebate) or with no rebate at 20,207 with financing 0.0 or 3.9%
 
2009 White Mazda 3s touring with moonroof/6 cd package (no Sirius)
Quoting me at 19384 (no mention of adding on extra fees or not being able to use financing).
 
I would prefer the 08 because it is closer to me; however, can anyone give me opinions on how low I should counter for this 2008 model when I can get the 2009 for essentially the same price? Is there really a 2000-3000 dealer incentive?
 
Thanks!

Heated Seats by JoeOttawa
Nov 26, 2008 (6:36 pm)
Reply
Have 06 touring edition that did not come with heated seats however there was a fuse in the position for heated seats and the harness under the seat looks identical to one in which the seats are heated. Dealer claims that they are different and the element is not in the seat but what does is cost to build two different seats one with and one without? They won't show me the schematic for the electrical, does anyone know where to find it or if they are the same seat?

Good deal???? by jym626

My s just bought a 2009 blue 3i touring value 4 dr sedan (automatic), They gave him a decent trade-in price ($3k) on the 10-11 yr old toyota minivan. He chose to purchase the 4 yr warantee for road hazard because there is a lot of constructin going on where he lives and he doesnt want to have to pay for the expensive new tires/rims (this was his one splurge). He paid an out the door price (tax, tag, etc) of $13,859. And yes this is a 2009, not a 2008. I thought he did pretty well, agreed??
