#116 of 758 Re: Over 1,000 CX-7s Sunk! [dagmar3] by franklw Jul 30, 2006 (1:47 am)
Replying to: dagmar3 (Jul 27, 2006 12:38 pm) I just came in for a test drive this morning. There were more than 20 CX-7 on the lot at El Cajon Mazda( I saw another ad with more than 30 CX-7 available from Mazda of Escondido). There is no shortage of supply here in San Diego, CA. Wonders if paying several hundred dollars over invoice will be the thing of the past soon since the internet pricing has allowed customers in So Cal to look for the best price from LA, Orange County, Riverside and San Diego. My overall test drive experience was positive, Pros: Look.....wow Acceleration Interior   Cons: Air condition, weak, no vent for back seat. No illuminated Vanity Mirrors ( my lady's complaint)   Just wonder about reliability since it's so new. Replies to this message: zoom49 (Jul 30, 2006 9:10 am)

Replying to: franklw (Jul 30, 2006 1:47 am)   We got one on the first CX-7's sold in So Cal on 5/28. It has been trouble free with a current 3,000 on the odo. The only issues I have heard about are a sensitive CEL (Many post 2004 cars have this). As well as a shudder in the transmission on a few cars in 5th and 6th gear. There was talk about an updated software program to fix this issue (Ours does not have it).   We wife(her CX-7) also complained about the lack of lighted Vanity Mirrors. Our A/C seems to cool fine here in hot So Cal. When we have passengers in the rear we shoot the center vent up and back to provide passengers with cool air.   There is no shortage on CX-7's here in So Cal, should have no trouble getting close to invoice.

Replying to: cx7byer (Jul 30, 2006 9:55 am) I am not sure if you have more than one Mazda dealers in your area, I would contact as many dealers as possible for price match and comparing purposes. You then can have them beat each other's price or throw in extras (free oil change, side step)to sweeten the deal. Last year, I contacted more than 15 Honda dealers in So. Cal for my Pilot EX-L, I stopped contacting other internet sale managers when the lowest price dealer agreed to throw in mud guard and running board. Good luck........by the way I called him back to negotiate after he emailed me the price. It's a good idea to have him email you OTD price after you have agreed on the sale price.
#120 of 758 CX-7 Experience by carlitos92 Aug 06, 2006 (7:05 am)
Picked up my AWD GT with Bose/moonroof, Homelink, and trailer hitch last week. I live in Dallas area and paid about $1200 off MSRP and got 6.25% dealer financing for 60 months. (ELoan also came in about 6.35%)   Can't speak to the MPG just yet, but it is 100 degrees F here, and I have had no complaints about the A/C at all. Although... I wish the black leather interior didn't get so hot while parked in the sun. Will definitely be looking into a sunshade for the huge windshield. Stereo is great for a OEM unit. Looking forward to finding a confirmed iPod integration kit - hopefully in time for xmas!   All in all, there are several things that are done "cheaper" than I thought they would be on the car, but there are also many things that are done so well, I wonder "why don't ALL manufacturers do this?" I was cross-shopping the RAV-4 (faster) and the RDX (more luxurious), but this is definitely the looker and the value of the bunch.

Talked to a Boston, MA area dealers and they are giving $2200 under msrp for any GT package. That was without negotiating. I have been monitoring two dealership inventories and it just keeps going up. Talked to two salesman and they said everyone is concerned about the premium gas and weak engine. One salesman said if the engine was as good as the body we would be getting 2200 over msrp". Looks like I will be buying a minivan. Replies to this message: carlitos92 (Aug 13, 2006 6:55 pm)

Replying to: taz6 (Aug 13, 2006 5:58 pm) That's amazing - and a little hard to believe, since there is barely $2200 difference between invoice and MSRP on a GT with the Tech Package. Maybe Boston is the place to shop for a CX-7!   As far as the premium gas, I personally don't sweat it too much. I'll be at the pump right there with the guy in his $37,000 RDX...
#123 of 758 Pricing facts by taz6 Aug 15, 2006 (1:26 pm)
Forget MSRP because nobody pays it, I hope. Invoice is only what the dealer supposedly pays for the vehicle. This does not include holdback, usually equal to the delivery charge, for the incedentals like vehicle set up and polishing. this is released to the dealer when the vehicle is sold. Then you have cash incentives which american companies give to the buyer, japanese to the seller. Since this is a new vehicles there are no incentives except for the dealer to clear lot space and create volume.
#124 of 758 Boston Pricing by taz6 Aug 15, 2006 (1:37 pm)
From the Boston Globe on sunday August 13,2006 Ira mazda 2900 off msrp, Quirk mazda 2400 of msrp. During the week 128 Mazda advertised 2690 off msrp. I know that these are just to get you in the door, but the biggest factor is that the seven dealers near me have over 250 vehicle in stock up from last week of 230.

#125 of 758 $250 below invoice by cruzdreamer Aug 18, 2006 (12:04 pm)
I have an email from a sales manager that he would do $250 below invoice for me to earn my business. Told him they were up against another dealer. He was seeking me out after he saw my for sale sign while my RX 8 was in getting serviced so I began to chat with him through email. I am just waiting for my investment property to sell before I buy the CX 7. Now I can go back to the other dealer and see if they can top that or get me more for my trade....it's still a buyer's market gang. Go for invoice pricing right off the bat! This dealer has about 4 CX 7's the other about 9 CX 7's. Hold out for your deal!!!!
