Replying to: alamocity (Jul 20, 2008 10:38 pm) 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.

Replying to: finkbine (Jul 21, 2008 6:43 am) Actually I don't think your price is too bad, isn't the invoice something like $18,369? Naturally others may get a better deal but if the transaction was a smooth process I'd say you did pretty well.

Replying to: finkbine (Jul 21, 2008 6:43 am) Really, base on invoice $18369, you have had $674 below invoice. Good deal to me. But as you said your friend got $300-$500 below yours, that is really impressive. so far I only see the $869 below is the best the deal in the forum.

#636 of 1119 How much to offer for 2008 Mazda5 GT? by velouria Jul 20, 2008 (4:50 pm)
We spent way too long at the Mazda dealership today.   Salesperson said the MSRP was $23,165 and wanted us to make him an offer but, after 3 hours, the kids had grown very grumpy and it was time to get lunch and naps. Salesperson said they wanted to get rid of the car (to make room for the incoming 2009s) so they'd give us a good deal.   My husband will probably call tomorrow with an offer. What is a reasonable offer? I was thinking $20,500. I would like to offer even less (and allow room for haggling) but don't want to insult.   What do you think?

#639 of 1119 Bought 2008 GT today by velouria Jul 26, 2008 (9:41 pm)
Long story short.... Test drove the 2008 GT at the dealership last weekend but they wouldn't even entertain our offer of $20k cash. They didn't have our first choice color of copper red, anyway, but they said they could get it within a day.   I contacted Carsdirect.com. Their no-haggle/no-hassle price was $22,013 not including options so I told them to find me a GT in copper red. It took a day for them to locate one 40 miles from me and we started the paperwork but just 2 hours before my husband and I were going to pick up the car, Carsdirect.com called and said that the car was no longer available. It had apparently been sold out from under us! They said they had a red GT with DVD system but of course we would have had to pay extra for that. No, thanks. Back to the drawing board....   Around the same time we got the bad news from Carsdirect.com, our local dealer called and told us that they were expecting a copper red 2008 GT in their dealership that evening. [That was last night.]   Today we called the local dealership and told them we'd come in to test drive the red GT. We left the dealership with the copper red mica GT.   We paid slightly more than Carsdirect.com but feel it was worth it because we didn't have to drive 40 miles to pick it up. Price before tax & license was $22,600 which included 3 options (bumper protector, cargo cover, and cargo net).   The car is gorgeous, our 4 year old son loves it, it's the perfect size for our family of 4, and it had only 21 miles on it when we drove it off the lot. We're very pleased with our purchase.   Royal Motor Sales in San Francisco came through for us! Big thumbs up to them for the smooth buying experience.
