Replying to: mars168 (May 20, 2009 7:48 pm) I'm not sure what their Memorial Day special is...that's all the internet salesman said. You can get quote for under invoice? for how much? what's TTL?
#4133 of 4328 2008 Mazda 3 HB Auto by herbench21 May 21, 2009 (3:22 pm)
There's a pre-owned 2008 Mazda 3 Grand Touring HB Auto with Moonroof with 18K for $19 995 in the color that I want. Is that a good price?
#4134 of 4328 2010 Mazda 3 Below Invoice by zar1 May 22, 2009 (2:39 am)
Purchased a 2010 GT HB Auto w/Tech & Moonroof package, auto dim/Homelink mirror, locking lugs, cargo net and rear bumper guard a couple weeks ago for $650 below dealer invoice. Note: Currently in southern California you need to add $150 to the dealer invoice shown on Edmunds to account for mandatory regional ad charge by Mazda to dealers to cover their extensive TV campaign. Was able to get quotes at invoice from dealers almost everywhere between north LA county to San Diego. Used $500 Preferred Buyers Card mentioned in earlier posts and Chase's 2.9% financing. All dealers are hungry so if you live in southern California or other areas with lots of dealers you shouldn't have to pay any more than invoice. Zoom zoom!

Replying to: zar1 (May 22, 2009 2:39 am) That's a zoom zoom buy! How much was your OTD if you don't mind me asking. We travel enough times to San Diego and maybe we should look there...but if the OTD here is cheaper than the OTD over there then maybe i should just get it here.

#4137 of 4328 2010 i Touring Manual sedan by dakenny May 22, 2009 (6:24 pm)
Just bought it tonight, worked my butt off for this deal.   Got it for 18,000 OTD, (paid 16,500 with preferred buyer's card and 1,000 trade in)   Has spoiler, fog lights, and chrome gas door. Like I said, worked really hard...   In Maryland, had gotten quotes for 18,200 OTD with no options, but worked this last dealer down.   good luck to everyone... Zoom Zoom!

Replying to: herbench21 (May 22, 2009 8:54 am) I don't recall the OTD and would have to hunt down the paperwork but the fees and taxes won't vary based on where you purchase, but rather by where you are domiciled. All dealers in California to my knowledge charge the same $55 doc. fee. Likewise, tire disposal fees are mandated statewide. Sales tax will vary by county and in some cases as in SD county, by city and again is based on where you live, not where you purchase. Total DMV fees can be calculated in advance easily by using the Vehicle Registration Fee Calculator at dmv.ca.gov. Using these tools and Edmunds invoice pricing, you can calculate your OTD for any vehicle with any option combo you choose. Good luck!

Replying to: herbench21 (May 23, 2009 9:46 am) I contacted about 8 dealerships via email, through edmunds. I got quotes from each of them, then contacted the two best ones. I made it clear I was shopping between the two, and wanted the very best Out the Door price they could give me.   Be sure to get the Out the Door price, base price for car can be augmented too many ways to list.   I had gone to another dealer and they made it clear they would match or beat any other offers I had gotten. I took the best OTD quote from the other dealers. That was my starting point in the negotiation with this dealer. It so happened that they made a mistake and gave me a quote in response that was amazing... what I paid in the end. They reversed and said they couldn't do that, I got mad and made noise. Talked to the owner of the dealership and he made it work so that I could pay what they gave me the great quote for.   All in, it took about 2 weeks from start to finish, although I have been at it since early March, you could do it in 2 weeks I suppose.   Also be sure to get the Preferred Buyer's Card, I mentioned it in earlier posts.   Good luck herbench and everyone else. By the way, been driving my car all over and I LOVE it Replies to this message: herbench21 (May 26, 2009 8:08 am)
