Dealer holdback is $450.
 
Here's the deal my friend got on his Crystal White Pearl Mazda5 GT.
 
$20,740 + $635 Destination + NJ Sales Tax. Car included the the Electronic Dimming Mirror with compass.
 
0% financing for three years, but the did purchase the extended warranty from Mazda.

willis3,
 
How did the dealer make a decent profit on the GT?
dealer's true cost = invoice ($21698) - Dest - holdback + $160 (mirror) = $20773
your friend paid = $20740
$33 below cost? How is it possible?
Is it a brand new car? Or is it a test-drive car?
 
Thanks.

Signtime,
 
Although the dealer sold the vehicle less than invoice, they reached into the dealer holdback amount. The dealership, Wayne Mazda also appears to move a high volume of cars, so I think they are more concerned with the sale rather than how much they make on each vehicle.
 
Dealer invoice on the Mazda5 GT is $21,063. My friend had already received the quote via internet prior to us going into the dealership. The internet salesman was not there, so a regular salesman was assigned to us. When he brought the van out, it already had the mirror installed. We thought they might try tacking on the price of the mirror, but they honored their quote and sold the van for what they quoted.
 
The vehicle was brand new, only had 10 miles on the odometer.
 
Also, the white vehicle should be $200 more, for their Mica paint. They got a good deal, however, they purchased the extended warranty, so Mazda made some good money here.

Edmund shows Crystal White paint have $33 minus the whole value. so it is not $200 plus. but anyway, the $300 below invoice and $200 for the mirror=$500 below invoice still good deal. By the way, how much is the extended warranty? is it bumper to bumper?

Looks the winner is here. $869 below invoice.

We were quoted $17,500 for an automatic '08 Mazda5 Sport. There are no options added on to this vehicle. In your (well, anyone's) opinion, is this a good deal? This, as far as I can tell, includes the dealer fee. I am really excited about this vehicle. Had to trade in my minivan a while ago ( ) and we bought a Honda Civic. The Civic gets great gas mileage but doesn't handle kids and dogs well. My 16 year sits behind my husband with his knees pushed up against the seat.

Yes, the price for this car is $17695 before TTL;
 
I don't think it is a very good deal, I heard someone got Mazda5 $300-500 cheaper than mine for the same model; maybe my price is about 30% percentile among all sale prices before TTL.
