Thanks for your responses.
 
I'll call the dealership again and try to get clarification on the money-back part of the warranty. I agree, it doesn't make much sense... except that they get to keep the $1100 for 5 years and can make some money off of that.
 
I have not bought the warranty yet... but looking in to it...

That's looks like a pretty good deal. After almost being ripped off trying to buy a new 2009 Mazda 5, we decided to try to get a slightly used 2008 Mazda 5 thru a dealer auction. I agree with the others and you should not buy a warranty from the dealer and you should buy on your own like from warrantydirect.com.

I am getting email offer from various dealer in SoCal. The best so far has been $20,221 which includes the $1000 cash incentive. This is a for a 2009 Mazda5 GT in Crystal white with no additional options.
 
Is this a good deal?
 
Thanks

I'm getting quotes for around the same (just under $17,000) for the 09 Sport AT, but the wrinkle is, the price is minus the $670 Mazda destination charge. Mazda's MSRP includes the destination charge, Mazda dealers don't include it when quoting their price. So if your price of $16,888 was for everything except TTL, that's great. For me, it's not really $3000 below MSRP, it's more like $2300 below, due to the game they play with destination charge.

Paid $17,100 by redberry

Finally did it - bought a 2009 Sport Automatic with no options other than wheel locks, for $17,100 before TTL and other fees.
 
Other fees include: destination charge (freight) and processing fee. I dislike how Mazda quotes MSRP with freight included, but dealers quote the price without it and you add it back onto your "best price". When I asked a dealer why they did that, he said so they could be aggressive with pricing (as, they can make the price seem like a better deal than it is!).
 
So, freight on the car was $670, which is standard for Mazda (but it's now gone up for the Sport AT). The dealer processing fee was a whopping $349. Other dealerships in the area charge the same.
 
When I was getting quotes for $16,995, I was forgetting the $1000 ownership loyalty incentive, which I don't qualify for, so even without that, I got close. I stayed under $19,000 for the total out the door price, so I can live with that. Looks good in the driveway!

Just wondering, in an earlier post, you said you had a much lower deal worked out at 20,200 or so. Why did you go ahead and buy at 21,810? That's quite a bit higher. I am in the market to buy a grey GT mazda 5 and I got the Consumer reports new car report that said the bottom line price should be 21,445. There is no mention of any rebate on the consumer report. I was at the dealer the other day and the sales man mentioned a 1000 dollar rebate for mazda owners, but we don't own a mazda. I think he is just offering me dealership money off and calling it a mazda owner rebate. What do you guys think?

(chiming in) No, there really is a Mazda owners loyalty incentive of $1000. In addition, there is an additional $1000 incentive if you do not finance with their 0% APR deal (more like a dis-incentive to finance through them).
 
Go to mazdausa.com, click "view the latest offers", it asks for your zip code, and for mine, it gives details on the loyalty incentive, plus the 0.0% APR for up to 36 months plus 0 monthly payments for 90 days (but you forfeit $1000 if you go that route).

I'm not sure how we got the mazda loyalty incentive, because I haven't owned a mazda before. Although my father owns one. But I didn't tell them that. We ended up getting 1750 in rebates in addition to another 1200 or so money off. We bought a 08 Mazda 5 GT. So we saved about 3k off of MSRP. We bought on Dec 31. I really thought it was a good deal. So end price was 20,500 give or take from memory. MSRP was 23,500. Does this sound like a decent deal? I love the car!
