MSRP $27,210. Bought for $25,094 plus tax and $200 doc fee (a bit of padding there). Overall happy I got a reasonable deal I think, in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Power hard top with the automatic transmission is the key for me. The price you got is lower than what Carsdirect.com and Royal Mazda quoted me ($25,600 and $26,100, respectively), and I was only asking about Touring! Any tip you could give me I would appreciate very much. Thanks! |

Looking at a Grand Touring with RHT in the SF Bay Area. How long do you think until stealers.....ahem dealers stop with the $3k mark up? |

I was wondering if anyone knew the approximate time it takes for an ordered MX-5 to be built, shipped from Japan and then dropped off at an East Coast dealership - Baltimore. Has anyone heard if Mazda has a back-log of MX-5 orders? My assumption is that once Mazda starts line assembly production it takes 6 to 8 weeks for a new 07 MX-5 to be delivered, but I am only guessing at this point. In any case if someone were to order a 07 MX-5 in November, what would be the best estimate on when the car would be ready to drive off the dealer lot?

Replying to: brake4me1 (Nov 08, 2006 8:28 am) 4-5 months is the order time. Mazda only accepts orders one day a month so if you miss the date your pushed back another month. The selling dealer plays a role also. If they don't have the allocation earnings they won't get the order built until they do. The selling dealer must also put in a priority code and that can help or hurt how quickly the order gets picked up. November orders are for January production and March delivery...Also, depending on your location the car spends between 4-8 weeks on the boat getting here from Japan.....The production numbers for Jan are very very limited due to the holiday shut downs..

hi, i live in socal and i'm looking to buy the new 07 miata gt hardtop convertible manual. i wonder what prices most people are getting now (if there are any prices lower than carsdirect.com) and also, i asked the dealership today about their inventory, and they said that their next shipment of hardtops come in around february and that i should put down a deposit. now does this deposit guarenttee me the car i want (trim and options) or does this only get me in line of "to contact" list. i've been reading and it seems like jan is the best time to buy. now, would i be "buying" in january even though the car won't come in until a few months later, or does the deposit mean, that the dealer and i have come to an agreed price and such and i place a deposit for that incoming car. i'm in no great hurry to buy the car (planning to wait as long as 5 months) and can wait if i can get a better deal. any suggestions would be great. thanks!

Replying to: plee05 (Nov 26, 2006 1:13 am) If you can get a good deal on a MX-5 right now I would go for it. There is not going to be that much of a savings between now and January/February 07. Also you might not find a new Mazda with all the bells and whistles you want on a lot, so pre-ordering gets you what you want. good luck.
