Replying to: weathergirl (Oct 15, 2008 4:35 pm) Here's the reply I received today (so I guess I'll get it in a week or so): "Thank you for your interest in the new 2009 Mazda6. This is a “private” offer, meaning you must receive the offer in the mail or via e-mail to take advantage of it. Mazda values each and every person who is interested in our products. This is a program for current and previous Mazda owners that may be ready to purchase based on information we have received from them. Customers that prior to September 2008 have indicated that they are interested in the 2009 Mazda6 or other Mazda products via our website. We’re sorry but only owners and non-owners who received the Mazda Private Launch Offer Direct Mail package are eligible. However, as a loyal Mazda owner, I would be happy to offer you a $500 Preferred Buyer’s Card good toward the purchase of a 2009 Mazda6. Please reply back to confirm so I may process your card today." Edit: BTW, a phone call did absolutely nothing for me.

Replying to: ohblue (Oct 15, 2008 4:43 pm)  Thanks guys for the tips and advice! I do have some more questions for everyone. I've heard that in order for a dealership to move a car from one store to the other, or trade one between dealerships, the buyer is required to put down a deposit on the car. Everything I've ever read has told me to never put down a deposit on a car they don't actually have. So what is the right thing to do? How much would a reasonable deposit be? Has anyone using the S-Plan been asked to do this when they don't have the car you want on the lot? Thanks!

Replying to: weathergirl (Oct 15, 2008 5:14 pm) BTW, I sent emails 2 days in a row, and my wife and I were Mazda owners in the past (MX-6 & RX-7), but not currently. They still offered to send the $500 card. Good luck...

Replying to: ohblue (Oct 15, 2008 5:33 pm) So, is it worth it to go through this dealership just to get the free extra warranty? I do plan to keep the car for at least the 5 year/60,000 mile factory warranty timeframe, and possibly longer. There's a small, but real chance, that I might not live in this area when the factory one is up. Who knows? They don't actually have the car I want, but claim to have "located" it. The other 2 Mazda dealerships near me don't have the one I want, either. So, whoever I go with will have to bring it in from somewhere. I really don't think I can be patient enough to wait for one on order. I've been looking for a new car for a year. Now that I've found what I want, I want it now. Any suggestions? Thanks! |
