Hold firm scott, dont take no for an answer.
 
Go down to the dealership, pick out the car you want, tell them such and such a dealer is offering you 7k off of the sticker but its far away and the dealer you are at is closer, will you beat it, they will try and haggle you and say I can maybe do 6k, then they will say 6500, then they will ask you what will it take to get you to buy this car, then you say 7k off the sticker, and they will give it to you.
 
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,

#550 of 551 not a good deal by scottk218
 
"...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 "

 
They're not even taking the full manufacturer to dealer incentive of $3750 off. 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!

Scott, here are the numbers you need:
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.

Hi Des5,
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?

S Plan price less incentives? by derrickson
Oct 10, 2008 (3:58 am)

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!!

Owner Loyalty by scottk218

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

Oldfash... My take would be it depends on how they're "coloring" their discount. In other words, they're basically taking MSRP, and giving $5500 in discounts + $1500 invoice to sticker margin = $7000.
 
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!

Thank you, I am satisfied I finally got my price, and especially on my color.
 
Funny thing is, I bet the dealers still make alot of money on the cars. the get reimbursed all of the rebate money and splan money right?
