Replying to: m6user (Oct 16, 2008 4:28 pm) Mazda6 sales are up. It's every other model that is down, that is why the 6 is being discounted. It has nothing to do with supply. However, any way you slice it, you can get a good deal on a Mazda6 now.

Replying to: aviboy97 (Oct 16, 2008 6:22 pm)  ! I'm sure supply plays some part in the pricing. If they were flying out the door as fast as you could get them on your lot I highly doubt they would be offered for less than invoice no matter how poorly other models are selling. Look at the the 09 Jetta TDI. Dealers are asking over MSRP for them and getting it right now. It's strictly supply and demand as I don't think Passats are selling well at all. |

OK, I almost pulled the trigger on a 08' TL (30,289 in NJ OTD, includes 7% tax and all fees  invoice-$3500+ and 2.9%) but My dealer called me that Mazda now has 3.9% and now it's a no brainer. I am going to order the car today( with a pocket full of discounts, S-plan, Private Launch 1K, MAC bonus 1K and 3.9%). I need to decide on a Touring w\ CONV and Bose($29115) or GT w\ Bose(30670). IS THE GT WORTH $1600 MORE than Touring for full leather heated seats vs cloth/leather combo, auto dim side and rearview mirrors w\ home link LED Tailights (have not seen the diff, will tonight) passenger power seat (let the Mrs move her own seat I say) I would pay 1K for these not $1600. Any opinions? Also the color selection is a bit weak. i am going for Silver w/black int. The Comet gray plays tricks on your eys in daylight.

As a true car guy, I get lost in all the amateur expertize regarding autos of today. Today's driver is so overly concerned with few dollars that they miss the fun of the drive. Mazda has been doing very well in building terrific nicely built cars that are great handling on the road, but all this is missed by the consumers penchant for demanding unrealistic pricing. It is my opinion that things are not so horribly bad, but the fact is we make matters worse by our ever present desire to always be on top. Go to a dealer drive the car, agree to dis-agree and buy the thing...

Replying to: realcardude (Oct 17, 2008 4:33 pm) I do a good job, get praises from all the customers; whats an extra 10-15K in my pocket gonna hurt the bottom line. Some people do get hung up on the little nickle and dimes... |

Replying to: realcardude (Oct 17, 2008 4:33 pm) Dealers are desperate today, and in reality the stock market should have no effect on people coming out to buy cars, because stock is fake money anyway. 401K's, 403B's that are all tanking right now will go back up. You don't see that money for years anyway, but, yet, it makes people not want to spend the money they do have. Since business is slow, around here dealers are not giving as great of deals because we all need to make money. The excuse "the economy sucks, car sales are slow, so give me the car for free" just does not work. My response is "you must be doing just fine, or you would not be here!" Shuts 'em right up! Anyway, I will never fault a customer for trying to rob the car, because they all read books, visit web sites like Edmunds, that give them all these "tricks" to make a dealer give the car away. A good salesman will always blow past all that garbage, establish a quality relationship with the customer, win them over and have them be overly joyed that the just bought a car. A salesman's happiest customer is ALWAYS the ones they make money on. The guy who comes in and busts your balls, wants the car for nothing, comes in with print outs from Edmunds are never fully satisfied, and are typically your worst customers, AND a salesman never makes any money on them. |
