Has anybody managed to get/order 2008 Mazda 5 with MT in color other than gray, silver or red? I tried to order blue 2008 Mazda5 with manual transmission (MT) today in local dealership (Columbus, OH). I was told that Mazda5 with manual transmission is only available in gray, silver or red. The 2008 Mazda5 brochure indeed states so as a footnote, but I can configure blue Mazda 5 with MT at mazdausa.com and I found three blue, two white, one black and one golden Mazda 5 with MT coming to dealerships in NY, WI, MN, MA. Is there difference in color options between state? It is somewhat ridiculous that with MT you are limited to just three colors. Moreover red comes with light upholstery which is not OK for me, so I am basically limited to gray and silver… not good. George

Not particularly convenient to Columbus, but they are available. http://www.mymazdadealer.com/MusaWeb/displayDealersByADI.action?adi=201&referrer- =www.mymazdadealer.com/dc&campId=3030&providertag=MazdaSEM&servicetag=TIER2DC&se- m=1

Replying to: rob222 (Dec 26, 2007 6:48 am) Any update? Is there a particular dealer? I have browsed around MazdaUSA, autotrader.com and vehix.com and I have not found any in the US yet (any distance actually). Canada has the MT option on the GT (note: not the same as the Grand Touring in the US, it is more of a Touring IMO), along with leather.

Replying to: coolmazda5 (Jan 11, 2008 6:34 pm) Brown's Alexandria Mazda 7400 Richmond Hwy. Alexandria, VA 22306 has four touring Mazda5 with manual transmission: Brown's Alexandria Mazda Rosenthal Mazda of Arlington and Rosenthal Mazda of Gaithersburg have couple of "call for transmission" Mazda5 that might be touring with manual. Also, it seems that Mazda5 touring with MT (as well as white, blue and black Mazda5 with MT ) were only available during the first production cycle and at least currently cannot be ordered. Finally, my sincere thanks to rob222 for head-up. George

Replying to: nihao4587 (Jan 11, 2008 4:20 pm) Menlo Mazda: 19,300 Fremont Mazda: 18,536 Oakland Mazda: 18,436 (used to be 19,003 before I showed them the offer from Fremont) Both are out-of-door prices. Should I grab the best one now or do you think the price of '08 Mazda5 sport MT will be significantly lower after mid-year? I planned to buy the car when it first came out, but I am not in a hurry by any means. Thanks. min |

Edmunds is showing the Lease special going on. I'm new to leasing and have a question. It reads: "Lease is based on a 2008 Mazda5 Grand Touring. Dealer may contribute up to $250 towards the $296 monthly special." What does the word "contribute" mean? I also don't understand how they want a $1,405 down payment but $2,296 is due at signing. What's the extra amount for? Thanks in advance.

Two days ago I paid in Jacksonville,FL 2008 Mazda5 Sport Auto with Pop.Eq. package $18450. Out of the door price ~19500. Almost got an optional fog lights for the same price, but I've made a mistake by going to another dealership (B) and telling them the quotes from the previous one (A). As it came out later, they were affiliates and they contacted each other. Dealer B gave me ridicoluosly low price for trade-in and high price for the new one. It gave dealer A the opportunity to erase from the original deal the fog lights - "we gave you the good price anyway, even without the fog light, we know that you went to dealer B and know what numbers they proposed". Since we have only 3 dealers in the city in can be the scheme. I would give an advise, do not tell the quote from another dealer (unless you are 100% positive they are not related) - if they want to give you a good price, they will give you anyway (if you not afraid of giving them crazy_low_numbers), but do not give them the opportunity to play with you. P.S. I love the car!
