Your quote is ok for now but may get a lot better by next week.
 
I just received a quote on an 09 M3 GT with moonroof, 6 cd, and manual tranny for $21,202 + tax. Original price was $23,159 + tax. I strolled the showroom last Saturday and he called me twice today and sent 2 emails. I called back and said that his price was still too high and that I may wait for an '010 model. He then got very animated and said that we can "work on that price as sales kind of slow right now and we have a high inventory." I'm curious to know what the real list price is.
 
The other dealer that I visited on Sat. has called me once and sent me 3 emails but they only have the loaded GT with auto and Nav. with a list of over $26,000--which the salesman said "we will work hard on this sale, and we can be flexible, but I don't see them selling that GT for under $21k. Dealers were Brown's Mazda in Chantilly, Va. and Fitzmall in Frederick, Md. I really wanted to buy before the holiday's and will wait to see how flexible they can get over the next week.

Buying a 2009 MAZDA3 HB Auto s Touring by ogurek

hello all,
i am interested in buying a mazda3 hatchback. i got this quote from Crystal Auto Mall (in NJ):
 
2009 Copper Red Mica Mazda MAZDA3 HB Auto s Touring
MSRP $20,445
their price: $19,336 (including destination)
 
i havent been able to get a quote from other dealers, but it seems kind of high. there is only one car like this (without moonroof/sound upgrade) on their lot.
any opinions about this?
btw: there seems to be a 2,000 to cash to customer rebate for 2008 models.
thanks for reading.

Dealer is asking 15,900 before ttl for a gray 09 i Touring sedan. Good deal or no? 4 speed atx, and i think it has a 6 disc changer

it's a bit too high
 
i'm in Nj as well, looking at GT's and i'm getting on avg 20500 on my quotes in cluding destination, so touring has to be atleast 1800 down from that. I've got a quote of 21000 out the door for a 2008 touring with moonroof option auto. Just FYI
 
i'd aim for a 20k OTD for a touring right now, just me though

thanks for replying,
i got a quote from another dealer, Open Road Mazda of East Brunswick, for an 08 model (so i guess including the 2000 rebate):
 
$16,533 just the car, w/o destination
or $19,026.26 OTD (again only one car, galaxy grey)
 
should i jump on this deal?

it sounds like a decent price, if you got that on an email i would just go in
and try and negotiate more. i got a quote for 17500 w/o destination on the 09 model from wayne mazda.
 
Open road have called me and try to push me to buy a 08 as well, when i was inquiring 09 model, and they sent me a quote for sedan instead of HB. So i'm getting my quote done again.

Decent Deal? by 28firefighter
Dec 16, 2008 (2:30 pm)

Helping a friend out with this, and wanted to know if this was a reasonable offer from the dealer. No rush to buy, but am curious...
 
In Cleveland Area (Cuyahoga County)...
2009 Mazda3 s Grand Touring
Automatic
Bose/Roof Package
Satellite Radio
 
MSRP: 24,280
 
Dealer offered right off the bat S-Plan pricing. After incentives were at 21,412...after TTL were at 23,412.
 
Seemed pretty aggressive but I guess my two questions are: Is this a good deal and is there any room left to negotiate? It included a $1000 cash incentive on the price, but I'm thinking given the new Mazda3 coming out in a couple of months, that that incentive is bound to get better.
 
Thoughts?
 
Thanks!

it seems like a good deal (under invoice)
but im betting that in a few months as the 2010 models come around, dealers will be a lot more motivated to get the 2009s out the door
 
of course, then there is a chance that your configuration/color may not be available
if possible find out when the 1000 incentive expires
if you are not in a rush, id consider waiting a bit more
 
or make it clear to the dealer that they need to motivate you to buy now rather than later
and if they want to make their sales numbers for the month, they might be able to go down even more
 
bottom line, cant hurt to ask, worst case they say no and are firm and you weigh your options

i got that price from an email, and i did double check that its a hatchback model
my goal is to set the final price via email, since im not good at negotiating in person
 
i emailed wayne mazda for a quote and they gave me 17200 car w/destination
this is basically the same as open road, so i think ill get them to beat each other
 
is there any particular reason why you want an 09 and not an 08?
the msrp is higher for 09 and there are less incentives

well, i'd get my price down via email and phone, and then really talk it down in person. So far they'd keep pushing you to go in for the test drive, and i don't think they'll come to their bottomline unless you go in.
 
Consider all things right now, i'm getting about 500 difference between 09 and 08, considering all incentives. Alot of dealers are out of 08 gt models as well. But 500 difference is what i'm getting in my research.
 
and the value lost from having an 08 and 09 is prabably more than 500 down 5 years...i think
