Hey everyone. Just signed up for this outstanding website and have a couple of questions about the Mazda 3s. I see that Edmunds does not have any Invoice information for the automatic transmission. Can I assume that the base Invoice price only increases as much as the auto tranny($900)? Also, I have noticed that Mazda's customization forces you to choose the Sport package when you choose leather interior. Meanwhile, the brochure tells me its an option without any qualifiers. Which is it?

I just decided to go with both. What the hell, right? Also, I just got an email from a Mazda dealer saying he will honor the Edmunds TMV price. Should I accept or try to get him closer to invoice price? Its about $1000 over invoice. |

| Bought my Hatch with the ABS, sunroof and leather for $18710,the S-plan price,plus a $199 conveyance fee. I am also a GM supplier and the GM dealers waived any conveyance fees. The S plan web site implies administrative fees are in the S plan price. I suspect I got overcharged The $199. Considered the Malibu Maxx and Vibe and substantial GM rebates, but the Mazda felt more balanced and fun to drive. Dealer(Modern Motors- Thompsonville, CT) was supposed to find a unit with the self dimming mirror, but did not and was supposed to assist in getting one installed but he has not done so. I would like to hear from people who have installed the $244 self dimming mirror from mazdastuff.com and anyone who has had the 3M, Scotchgard,or invisible bra treatment. Local installers are quoting $550 for the front, rockers, wheel wells. So far(600 Miles) I am finding the car to be just about what I wanted to buzz around back roads, run errands etc. | |

Well, looks like I could be driving a new Mazda pretty soon! I ordered a black Mazda 3s with 4-Speed sport tranny, ABS/SAB, moonroof & 6-CD, xenon, and sport packages with leather interior (plus a few little extras) all for $20,900. Not bad for a fully loaded brand new car. I think I came away with a winner here. |
