Replying to: renu_p (Apr 22, 2008 9:17 pm) That is correct--destination charge was included. There were no additional fees beyond what the state and county charges for tax/title/registration. Replies to this message: renu_p (May 01, 2008 7:46 pm) hondax2 (May 02, 2008 4:59 pm)

Replying to: hondax2 (Apr 30, 2008 11:22 am) Does $22,450 include the taxes? Replies to this message: hondax2 (May 02, 2008 4:59 pm)

Replying to: renu_p (May 01, 2008 7:46 pm) No--Indiana sales tax of 7% was added as were the titling fees charged by the state. At registration, Indiana residents also pay the county excise tax on the vehicle. I took advantage of Mazda's 1.9-3.9% financing incentive, too.
#585 of 617 08 Silver Sport 5spd auto w/PE by 01le May 03, 2008 (1:39 pm)
I just bought mine last night and it's my first brand new car ever. Double whammy of excitement, for me. I paid $18,400 that includes destination but taxes & reg. excluded. I got the 4.9% financing and the dealer gave me $1,000 more for my trade than the next closest dealer offered. I did the edmunds.com dealer price quote search and every dealer came back at $18,900 and none would budge from their quotes. Then I e-mailed a dealer I found on autotrader.com that had 11 Mazda5 in stock. They came back at $18,400 and would not budge on their price. Finally I got them to throw in tinted windows for every window except winshield of course and they agreed. Thats a $250+ value according to 2 local shops I called this morning. I hope I did good, please give me your opinions. Replies to this message: x5sav (May 03, 2008 5:11 pm) coolmazda5 (May 03, 2008 8:00 pm)

#589 of 617 Going to buy a Scion xB instead of the Mazda 5 by dave594 May 10, 2008 (4:20 pm)
We were shopping for a replacement for our 10 year old Odyssey, and wanted to downsize and looked at the M5. We liked the M5 sport and wanted to deal with the dealer, hoping to get an OTD price of about $18k. They are holding firm to their offer of $18,700. So we went to the Scion dealer just out of interest, and the xB really blew us away for the value. Yeah, we'll miss the 3rd row seats, but for $15,400 we get everything we want (power everything, AC, traction control, ABS, VSC), and with the manual tranny we save $1k. That price includes freight. OTD is about $16k including tax. Replies to this message: coolmazda5 (May 12, 2008 11:02 am)

We just picked up our new car last week. It has been raining steadily since then, but driving it in the rain is great. We got the GT pkg b/c I wanted leather seats. I didn't really care about the auto on lights and wipers but using them in the rain this week has been fantastic. I am totally spoiled.   We actually used the Edmunds dealer link at the TMV page. We got great response and pricing. I do think the dealers are suffering for sales and that helped us get a great price. We got one response from a dealer in Annapolis that was willing to drive a car to us to test drive and check out. That is 60 miles each way. We went with our local dealer.   We got a price of $20,290 from Brown's in Alexandria for the GT version. No other options. Tags, taxes fees etc. added another grand back to the cost.   We took the price to the local Brown's Fairfax Mazda and they matched it for us. Great service. They called all around and got us a vehicle the next day. Even threw in the mats, the bumper protector and wheel locks that were already on the unit.   They did play the trade-in game, but they came close and we gave on that.   We went with the Mazda financing.   The car is fantastic. It fits me, small mom, perfect and the kids love it. The seats are a dream to fold up and down. The dog loves the center aisle to get to the back. It is the same length as the Passatt wagon we traded in. It has a taller roof line.   It is so cute. We parked it next to a "real van" at McDonald's and it looks like a baby van. I am super happy with my mini-mini van!

Replying to: dave594 (May 10, 2008 4:20 pm) Yikes, a Scion would never be on my list of Mazda5 potential runner-ups but the most important part is that you really seem happy with your purchase and the deal, enjoy the car!
