All right, this is the last time I'm going to go through this.
'08 AWD Touring no options: MSRP 27835 Invoice 26077.
26077 - 5500 + 200 (advertising, varies by region) = 20777.
Reasonable bottom line offer would be 20927 + taxes.
Looks to me like they're using last month's numbers to keep about $800 in their pocket.

That is what everyone is offering, right now, its not a good deal, especially when you KNOW others are getting 7k off.
 
I am going to push for 7500 off on my next cx7

Hi all,
 
I was watching this forum for the last few days,,, it is full of great info,,, and I really appreciate everbody's posting here.
 
I think of buying 08' CX-7 Sport, the base model .... but since I am after the 0% APR offer for 60 months,, I have 2 questions:
 
- how hard is to get the 0% APR? what credit score they want. I do not want to put anything down.
 
- how much discounts can I get with the 0% APR?
 
Thanks a lot for everybody.

When I shopped a 100 mile radius of Charlotte,NC buying our 2008 CX-7 last month, all but two were that model. No exaggeration.

We have bought (see post a page or two ago), but I hear some Mazda incentives were completely "cut" on 2008's. Sounds like dealers had the option to purchase them (taking them off the floor plan) without titling them, getting all incentives applied, or staying at invoice minus marketing support on floor plan. Saw GM/Ford do that so wouldn't be surprised. If they took the deal, they are in at net-net-net and paying full interest (i.e. bottom dollar on 120+day cars they want off the lot last week).
 
Unless you live in a state with weird regulations (don't know of any that apply to this situation off the top of my head, please correct me if I am wrong), you still get "new" vehicle, never titled (dealer doesn't count), and warranty doesn't start until you drive off the lot.
 
This is as close as you will ever come to "stealing" a car without going to jail
 
If TMV stays close to residual, you can get out in 2 years with little to no loss. I have never seen a better option on a new car buy (not counting the last Oldsmobile's, a VERY different situation -BTW, thanks for the Rolex for selling the last one )
 
I'll take this to the appropriate thread, but we are having awful front end vibration under breaking on our CX-7 (only 21 miles when we picked it up). Assumed rust/lot grease the first week, but getting worse. Maybe warped rotors?

There's a "dealer" (using the term loosely) here in Charlotte (two lots, one on South Blvd) still emailing me as he refuses to believe we bought. This is the guy that blew us out the door at MSRP on a 2008, with 2009's on the lot, mumbling something like "might be able to find $1200 in there" as we walked. He was also shorting our trade, knew we knew about the 3500/500/800 and said he would lose his license if he even talked about those numbers, and pressuring us on payment when I had told him 500 times we were not payment buyers- "we are here to buy a car, not a loan". I blocked his phone though caller-ID, a few more emails and I am going to drive my wife's CX-7 over there and do donuts in the parking lot if if that's what it takes to get his attention (just teasing).
 
Personally, I consider us an easy sale. So did the dealer we bought from. I am honest from the minute I walk in the door.
-My family has dealerships, I grew up around the business, I am far from an expert, but I did do my homework. I don't buy from family, I like to keep it local for service reasons (unless there is a regional offer I can't refuse, I am not stupid).
- I want a good deal. Good deal does not equal lowest price. I know you have to make a profit and I want you to- I want you to be here when I need service and I want a loaner if its overnight. Fair is fair.
- I prefer to work wholesale to wholesale. Appraise my trade as is, price your car as is. Lets please consider them 2 different transactions (they have been in many deals). No need to hide numbers. Appraise my trade and let me know ACV (Actual Cost of Vehicle- what they are really paying for it, no robbing Peter to pay Paul). this is basically the "invoice" on my trade. Let's pull invoice on the new vehicle as well. from here we will cut a deal that is fair to us both and no one will waste any time or hurt any feelings.
 
Not only have I always been told they respect this attitude, I usually get little incentives like "loyalty rebates", "farmers credits", "competitors rebates', etc, thrown in I didn't even know about.
 
One thing I uses to love when I sold cars (long long time ago, galaxy far far away, yada yada)...the guy who walked in with the past three issues of Consumer Reports tucked under his arm loudly proclaiming as he entered the showroom, "I am only here to look". This was the old me, but, he would be "just looking" alright, "just looking" at the sales contract later that evening at the dinner table while his wife shouted "I thought you were only looking!!??"
 
Even better, this is the kind of guy that has been bragging about his car buying abilities for weeks (we called them "Car Lawyers"), so all his friends, co-workers, and neighbors were just waiting for him to find the "best deal". He could never admit he caught "showroom fever" or "got sold", so he would have to send them all my way to save face. He got a $50 "bird dog" check for each one, I am sure that helped a bit.
