We just picked up a 2009 Gray automatic Touring for $19,678 OTD. $18,273 (incl. $670 dest. charge) + $1102 taxes (6%) + $303 fees. Also included were the cargo net and rear bumper protector, worth perhaps $70-ish. We used the same Maryland dealers that others have mentioned (Ourisman and Castle). Looking at previous posters, I can see that others were able to get better deals but all in all I'm satisfied that we did good enough. Customer traffic was moderate at the two dealerships today. Not too busy but not dead either. |

We are looking at a Mazda5 sport AT. The local dealer (only one in Memphis--next closest is 2 1/2 hrs away) gave us a price of 18,000 + taxes, etc. with 2.9% financing and $500 cash back(which can be taken off the price on the front end). He pulled up the KBB price of 18,600+ and said this was a really good deal. However, after reading these posts, I am thinking this is not such a good price. Also, from what I understand the dealer incentives will change July 1. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks! By the way, the local mazda dealer did not even have one on the lot for us to test drive. They said they would probably get some in this week.

Replying to: dahers (Jun 29, 2009 6:32 pm) Cars Direct would not do that. I asked them, they said $1750 dealer cash has already factored in on their website. If $16888 OTD for Sport manual trans, then I figured add $1034 more for Sport auto trans., price should be lower than $18K. I asked them $18,500 OTD, but they said no. Oh, well, I guess I will wait another month or two to see what kind of incentives they have. |

Replying to: gambit293 (Jun 30, 2009 2:58 pm) If we had visited in person, we probably would have had the same reaction you did and walked out. But in the end, we did not visit any dealers except for an initial test drive to make sure we knew what we wanted. After that, it was just a numbers game. And nobody was going to give me a deal based on my good looks.  Luckily the Internet shopping sites have put pressure on dealers to negotiate seriously by e-mail. The "squeeze" at delivery was quite impressive as the dealer pushed everything under the sun -- extended warranty, key-fob loss protection, even tried to get us to finance the vehicle with their preferred bank at a high rate. Bottom line is they know the numbers better than shoppers do and they know if a competitor's deal looks realistic, so there's no harm in bouncing one offer off the other, and you don't have to name names. |
