You got a very good deal for a GT w/AWD - a comparable Murano can actually be had for about $31K B4 tax & lic.

Besides mine,I have yet to see a Cx-7 on the road, the dealer has 97 in stock for sale. St.Paul/Minneapolis. I simply bought it for what Mazda was basing the Capitalized cost for a lease, $3000 off MSRP.
 
Simply wasn't going to buy an SUV w/o Xenon lights. Maybe the premium fuel requirement is scaring off potential buyers, or just plain tough times for the new SUV market in general?

Here in So Cal there are also very few CX-7's to be seen on the rosd. But even so, I could not do bettet than $500 over invoice for the CX-7 at the 2 Mazda dealers I visited and on top of that, they are adding an additional $150 for something called Los Angeles Assessment.
 
On the other hand, 2007 Murano's can be had here for $100 over invoice and no LA Assessment. Go figure!

When you mentioned $500 over invoice, what was the actual price quoted? All I know is that I paid $3000 off MSRP, maybe that price is no better than what you are being quoted.

I bought mine, 2nd week of Sept for actually i would guess less than invoice. I got GT AWD w/bose & sun pkg for 28,500 even.
 
Also, i have seen many cx-7's here in the north east (NYC/Boston/RI) compared to the new SUV models, i see more 7's than CRV's & RDX's combined. The CX-7 seems to be very popular in the city areas.

$3000 off MSRP is an unbelievable deal (in my case that would represent about $600 UNDER invoice)!
 
According to my paperwork, the total invoice price of a GT FWD with Tech Pkg, MR/Bose Pkg, and Prem Pkg is $29,451 (price includes a $595 destination charge). After adding $500 (Costco deal) and $150 (LA Assessment) my final deal came to $30,101 BEFORE CA tax & lic (from which I walked away)!
 
The deal you get depends a lot on geographic location, so when people discuss the deal they got, they should disclose where!

Remember, I did not get the TECh package, which would have added about $1500.00 to the total.I could have had the GT AWD w/ tech for just under $30,000 plus TT+L.
 
You probably don't need the AWD in L.A. and the MPG will be slightly better.
 
What in the world is the "L.A. Assessment" charge? The CX-7 is produced in Hiroshima and L>A> is a heck of a lot closer shipping to Japan than St. Paul, Mn. Should be a "St. Paul, Mn. Assessment" charge!

The tech package adds way more than $1500, even on your best day -- MSRP on it is more like $4k so even with a good deal you'd have to expect to pay $2500 or more for it.
 
I got FWD w/Tech, Preferred Equipment, Remote Start & Sirius Radio for just under $30K. From what I understand, I was just very slightly above invoice. I highly doubt you could have gotten AWD for that price (AWD adds about $1500 to the price).

I paid $28,350.00 for AWD GT, but didn't get the Tech package, remote start,or Sirius. You could be right about the tech package, I think a Mazda salesperson told me it was about $1500 more for the Navi part alone, factoring in all the extras that come with the Tech setup.(if purchased separate)
