I'm trying to do this by email but the dealer is uncooperative. I am about 50 miles from any other dealer but will have to begin emailing them as well I think.I am turning in a leased 2007 AWD CX7, which I love, but buyout is 19.9 and it looks to me like I should be able to come close to that in a new one right now? By email I got this: I had my manager run a 2008 CX-7 Sport AWD with the 8 way power driver seat and monnroof/6cd package MSRP $28,195 and we can sell for $25,000 plus your tax and fees on a purchase for 60 months is $517.89 , 72 months is $451.58 with $0 out of pocket. On a lease with $0 out of pocket with 15,000 miles a year for 36 months your payment is $557.40. I had already told her I wanted specifics, no mention of interest rate or which fees in particular she's talking about. Of course I'm trying to price here from invoice up rather than deal in payments. It looks to me from the postings here that I should be more in the 18-19k range, although the invoices listed at Edmunds are 2009 not 2008 so I'm not entirely sure where to begin. Thoughts, suggestions? thanks.

When I went to the dealer to buy mine, I was there for 6 hours, and not 1 customer came into the building, NOT 1!, THESE CARS ARE NOT MOVING AND NOW IS THE TIME TO BUY, |

What a bunch of loonies they are... I agree that you're going to be way ahead of the game with purchasing a new one vs. the buyout option. Also I think $25k will get you an 08 CX-9. Still searching for my magic number...Good Luck to you!

Replying to: scottk218 (Oct 09, 2008 6:29 pm) Running the MSRP numbers, I'm off by 175, there must be a couple more small options on this car, so figure another 150 invoice. AWD Sport 23811 Seat 305 Bose/Roof 1379 Misc Opts. 150 Destination 635 Advertising Coop ~200 (varies by area) Total Invoice 26480 Less 5500 = 20980 I would tell them you will pay any dealer anywhere 21130 + tax and tags, and the first one to step up gets the business. Some stores will test to see how ignorant you are about the hidden incentives. Generally once you tell them what you know, they come around. |

Replying to: fishhoppa (Oct 08, 2008 11:47 am) Thanks for your reply. So if I am understanding this correctly I can deduct approx ~$5500 from invoice price (if I am not financing thru them) to use as a guideline when negotiating? That would sound like a pretty awesome deal on the 08's. Thanks! That's correct, if you give up the 0% financing. The dealer will likely offer you other terms, but you must shop those yourself, as what you get will depend on credit score, credit crisis, etc. In my opinion Mazda always overprices the cars to start with but gives it all up+ at the end of the model year. Even back in 2005 I bought my 6i for 5500 off sticker. Where else can you get a turbo CUV for 18K base? |

Hey folks, it's too late for me, but curious if it's reasonable to offer a dealer S-Plan price less their discounts, versus MSRP less discounts. (S-Plan / MSRP diff is ~ $1500). Should the dealer be indifferent? Do they get the S=Plan diff back from mfr? Any info (for future purchases) is appreciated! Des, I definitely agree about the "where else can you get..." comment. I paid $17K+ttl for mine, and that's equivalent to a loaded Corolla!!

Thank you for the quick replies. I am turning in an 07 CX7 too, so there should be $500 owner loyalty cash as well I think? In any event, now I am pre-approved through my CU for a loan, so I don't need their financing. The sales person hasn't been back in touch with me since I told her that deal was too high. Well, except for an auto generated video ad about why they are the best dealership ever, that came through at 2AM!! I'll use these strategies and get back to you, probably with more questions! But hopefully with the details of a good deal! |

| QUESTION, If they are giving 7k off, and I buy another cx7 does that mean I can get an extra 500 since I already own a mazda | |

Replying to: oldfashioned (Oct 10, 2008 9:53 am) So, if the $5500 in discounts equates to: 4000 finance discount, 1000 quota spiff, and 500 loyalty savings, then they're going to say they already included it in their discount. Of course, it never hurts to ask!
