Replying to: Car_man (Feb 11, 2009 2:35 am) I went back to the originating dealer with my '07ST with 2 months to go. I was at ~24.5k miles (out of 27k). I figured that they would be drooling over the chance to get my mint car (well cared for - spotless inside and out, oil changed and tires rotated every 5k miles) on the lot. Optimistically I figured they might even give me some extra $ towards a new lease/finance of an '09 or '10 Mazda. Wrong. Right now the dealers are getting killed by Mazda American Credit and can't get a better deal than the Residual in the contract. MAC would rather take the cars to auction to get more $. Tulley Mazda in Nashua is a great dealer, and gave me owner loyalty ca$h (passed on by Mazda) and invoice pricing on a new car...but that was it. Nothing more. The deal on the table was $335/mo for a '09SGT with AutoDim Mirror and Moonroof/Stereo. The price for the car ~$22k. I did call a different Mazda dealer and they didn't even want me to bring the car to them! "Just bring it back to the original dealer." For that money, I shopped around and stumbled into a deal for a '07 BMW 328i with 16k miles....I loved my 3ST, but the 328 is a different planet! I dropped off the 3ST yesterday and I will miss it. The Biz Mgr there said that Mazda should come pick it up in a couple of weeks. Fare thee well...

Car_man, I was thinking of leasing a Mazda HB, but it seems that leasing this particular car is not a good deal. Is this still the case today?

Hello all, I have a Mazda 3 i sport leased for 2 years and so far I've made 7 payments already. Is it possible to trade this in for another new Mazda maybe the 2010 model but instead of leasing another one I will finance it? Is this feasible? Thanks much.

Replying to: cheeseplz (Mar 17, 2009 8:04 pm) I've been after an MS3 lease for a little while now and what I've found is that the local mazda dealers in the raleigh/durham area won't apply any incentives on MS3's... most of the mazda3 incentives are unfortunately for the non speed models. You can of course negotiate the buying price down and base a lease off that, but I don't believe the money factor used will result in a great lease deal. You'd have to confirm with carman what the current MF and residual values are on the MS3 to know for sure. I'm not sure if MS3s are just selling well or what, but the dealers here didn't seem to be willing to bargain quite as hard on them as with their other models or other car companies. VW has good incentives/leases on the GTI, and Subaru is not selling well locally here, so they're offering better lease deals on the WRX. Both of those might be good competitors to check out, you may end up with a better lease deal on them.
