Replying to: ZYsean (Jan 14, 2009 9:28 am) That is fairly consistent the Mazda USA web site which says $2,405 between the two. From my perspective, the price bump is cheap given all the extra goodies the "i Touring" has over the "i Sport". Best regards, Shipo |

Just purchased an '09 Mica Black S Touring HB 5spd w/ Moonroof/6 CD, auto-dimming mirror and about $300-odd in other small options. The price was $18,848 OTD, which included 6.75% tax and $250 doc fee. This was without Mazda financing.

| Hello everyone. I'm buying a 2009 Mazda 3 GT 5 Door and am really excited about it. I'm selling my Honda CRV and am hoping to get $5000 for it. Now I want to use that to put a down payment on the Mazda. Is this a normal amount? I mean I have not bought a car in over 8 years. I don't know if I'm not putting enough down or if I'm putting too much? I would like to finance the car for 36 months (0% financing). Do they still have this deal? Any suggestions on where I should go, or what I should be paying would help. I'm in Long Island, NY by the way. Thanks. | |
| I have also thought about trading in my Honda CRV to the Mazda dealer in exchange for my new 3. Is this a good idea? Or should I just sell my Honda privately? My Honda is falling apart pretty fast. Didnt start the other day (need a new battery and cold weather doesn't help), one of the head lights is out, and the radio says "Code" and it's also out. Rather than get these things fixed, I was thinking just to trade it in to dealer for a new car. Is this a bad move? | |

Replying to: ylz (Jan 20, 2009 6:40 pm) The only other reason to trade it in is that, depending on the state, the price of the trade-in can drastically lower the sales tax on the new vehicle. You'll have to run the numbers yourself to see if it is worth your time selling it on your own. Also, if you are taking their 0% financing, the car will cost more than if you pay for it through other means (cash, another loan, etc). There is at least another $500 off if you use other options. When we considered the 0% financing, we did so by assuming 0% down. It's the only way to get the maximum benefit of the offer. The big question here is whether or not you can stomach the larger monthly payments. I ran all the spreadsheets, comparing the choices, and, in the end, decided to pay for the car outright. If you are comparing against any outside financing over 3-4% for 3 years, the additional original $500 or so savings on the car is quickly gone. |

Replying to: ylz (Jan 20, 2009 6:40 pm) But, those seem like minor issues.. enough to turn off a potential buyer, but not that expensive to fix.. Get a new battery, reprogram the radio (lost power, that's why it says code), and fix the headlamp.. How old is your CR-V, and how many miles? It may be worth more than you think... $5000 down on a new car and a loan for 36 months seems like a pretty good idea.. regards, kyfdx |
