Oh wow, that sounds like an awesome deal. I kept asking the salesman if the $1000 rebate applied to anyone and he kept insisting it was only for customers who financed through Chase bank. I even had him go to the website and it did in fact said *ony for customers financing with chase... Or something along those lines. I wish I had a better feeling about my car, I didn't have much to compare against (besides the other dealer), in the end their bottom line price was much much better than that of the other dealer. Btw if you are in the Hampton road area avoid going to any HALL Automotive Dealership TRUST US they are not worth your time. All said and done, with 117 miles since we bought we are totally in love with our new MAV!!!

I'm looking seriously at the Mazda5 (at John Kennedy Ford, BMATT). The dealer quoted me $20, 994 for a 2009 Mazda5 GT, which includes $1500 worth of incentives.
 
Does anyone think that Mazda will offer better incentives after the current ones expire at the end of the month??

I would guess that there might be no additional incentives in the Month of March. I heard that Mazda5 is the best selling vehicle among all the Mazda Models, So I would assume that they might transfer the manufacture incentives to models that are not selling that well. Again this is just mere speculation.
 
Is $20,994 the out of the door cost, including taxes,trade-in etc?

Dang. I was hoping the economy affected Mazda enough for them to launch a better incentive plan...
 
$20994 includes $1000 Mazda incentive, plus $500 dealer incentive if you pay cash. So, the original MSRP would be $22494 for a Mazda5 GT. For whatever reason, John Kennedy Ford lists this vehicle as $23563 on their website.

I think you got a good deal, Edmunds lists the invoice price of GT around $21900, so you got it for roughly $1000 less the actual invoice price.
 
Just like in your case there was a difference of few hundred dollars between the Edmunds invoice price and dealers invoice price for my touring. It may be because of dealer installed add-ons (I am not sure what they are )

I think that is a good deal, My original intention was to get 2008 model. It could have saved me at least $1500, but my wife insisted on 2009 model.

Leverage? by sharerware

Help me out here... If want to take advantage of the zero percent financing, does that basically mean I can't negotiate the price?

Based on my experience, if I wanted 0%financing, then I will have to pay $500 more than the negotiated price. So negotiate as if you are not financing and then ask for 0% APR.
 
The key here is to be able to recognize a good price, when you see it. For example... one dealer's starting price was at MSRP, then he would apply rebates and go from there. The other dealer where I eventually bought the mini-van, his starting price way below the MSRP and little above the invoice price (dealer claims it is the invoice price), Then applied rebates on top of the starting price. I was prepared to buy the car for a little bit above the invoice price. I decided to accept that price and then moved on to discuss the price of the trade-in.
 
Once you agree on a price, don't forget to ask what would be the out the door(OTD) price. Here you would be able to see, if the dealer is charging you anything extra. In my case all of documentation fees were less than $100.
 
So If the dealer refuses to negotiate the price in order to give you 0% financing, then walk away from the deal.

The suggested retail for a 2003 Corolla CE with 130,000 miles is about $8500, so lets say the dealer gets only $7000, which is $1500 less, they'll still make $3500 from your trade-in.
