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.

| 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. | |

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.

| 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!!!! | |
Im giving away all my CX-7's but not at invoice.

I understand you salesman don't want to sell all of the cars at invoice but people who do their research and know all about the vehicle etc., are the ones you may have to sell them for less or close to invoice, Unfortunately, the car biz is not exactly booming. My uncle owns a Ford dealer, my sister in law manages an office at a Lincoln Mercury dealer and my brother has been a salesman since 1985. I feel bad but finally I can get a decent price on a car instead of feeling taken. I would buy through my family members and I have in the past but since I have been buying brand new Mazda's I am on my own. Hope you have a good year anyway!!! Good luck!

Just wanted to let everyone know that I used Edmunds to send quote requests to some Chicago area dealers, and just signed for a Copper Sport AWD w/ Sunroof/Bose/Power Seat and mirror w/ compass for $26,531. Didn't even haggle - they offered invoice, and I took it. Very nice car buying experience. Pretty soon the CX-7 will take up a place in the garage next to my '93 Miata. The fiance fell in love w/ the CX-7, and I wasn't going to argue!
