Replying to: gambit293 (Jun 27, 2009 6:12 pm) Bought a Manual Shift Sport, in gray, for $16,888.20 out the door -- $16,850 minus $1750 dealer cash brought the sale price to $15,100, plus $670 freight, $946.20 Maryland tax, + $172 in fees. Found Maryland dealers were willing to waive the $100 dealer processing fee, though after agreeing to waive it, my dealer -- Congressional Mazda, Rockville, MD -- tried to tack it back on at delivery. Also, caught the dealer pumping up title/registration fees. I had settled on price by e-mail and ended up knocking another $70 off just by insisting that they break down the fees and explain how they were doing the math. Brown's Fairfax had attractive ads but in the end would go no lower than $17,400 OTD for the same vehicle. Castle Mazda would match Congressional but would not deal any further. Gaithersburg Mazda seems to have a bunch of 5's in stock - presume there are more good deals to be had as the last of the '09s are just coming into port.

Replying to: dahers (Jun 29, 2009 6:32 pm) Wow, that's a good deal $16888 OTD. 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: dahers (Jun 29, 2009 6:32 pm) $16,888 otd sounds great. We weren't too interested in dealing with Congressional because they struck us as the sleaziest among the dealerships we visited. But congrats on snagging a deal from them.   I wasn't too worried about excessive fees since at that point we negotiated the final numbers, I was dealing with OTD price anyway.

#897 of 1130 Dealer Incentives for July ? by ldisler Jul 01, 2009 (4:52 am)

Replying to: gambit293 (Jun 30, 2009 2:58 pm) Sounds like you did really well yourself.   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.

Replying to: ldisler (Jul 01, 2009 4:52 am) Apparently there are no incentives for the mazda 5. I just spoke to a dealer in nashville who looked on the dealer website and said that since the mazda5's are selling so well they were not going to have an incentive this month. Bad news for those of us who waited! Our dealer in Memphis does not even have any in stock. Replies to this message: cyclone83 (Jul 01, 2009 8:13 am) mmp0806 (Jul 01, 2009 9:51 am)

Replying to: mmp0806 (Jul 01, 2009 8:06 am) That's terrible news!! We've been trying to time our purchase with incentives, the Mazda Preferred Buyers Card, and cash for clunkers. We had to wait for cash for clunkers, and it looks like we missed out on the incentives Replies to this message: mmp0806 (Jul 01, 2009 9:51 am)

Replying to: cyclone83 (Jul 01, 2009 8:13 am) I agree! we were waiting on the cash for clunkders thing too. I was just now looking at the kia sedona--doesn't get as good gas mileage but they are offering 2000 cash back I think and there seem to be a lot more of those around, so they are more willing to deal. Looks like we could probably get one for about the same price as the mazda5.
#902 of 1130 Incentives by cyclone83 Jul 01, 2009 (11:39 am)
This seems to indicate that the $1750 incentive is still there: July 2009 Incentives   I'm waiting for a call from my local dealership to confirm one way or another Replies to this message: mmp0806 (Jul 01, 2009 1:02 pm) cyclone83 (Jul 01, 2009 4:13 pm)
