Hi all. Thank you all for the great information. I am finishing up a lease on a CX-7 and am looking to purchase a cx-9 AWD sport here on Long Island NY. I told the dealer that I wanted a CX-9 Sport, no options. Now, he didn't have a Sport model in stock but felt confident that he could get one so we started talking turkey. He said MSRP is: $31750 but started pricing at $29,700. So.. Sale price $29,700 -$4000 Instead of Financing  1.9% Tax +$2216 Total $27916 -$1000 Customer Loyalty Final Sale price incl tax $26916.00 I pressed him to take off another 2k but he said he could maybe do $500. Thoughts? Good deal/Bad deal. |

Just wanted to thank everyone on the forum. We bought our CX-9 on Saturday (9/13) from Ray Skillman Mazda in Indianapolis. Worked with Carol and Chad and their manager Bryan. VERY professional dealership and true to their word! Worked everything out in e-mail beforehand with a $500 +/- on my trade-in and then confirmed over the phone before I drive out. Here was my deal: '08 CX-9 AWD Grand Touring MSRP - $37,964 Price Paid - $29,064 + TTL and a $135 processing fee Options included blind spot monitoring (awesome feature!), all weather mats, roof rails, moonroof/BOSE. The car had been used as a demo so had a few miles on it so I did get a bit of negotiating power for that. They also offered me a fair price on my trade in. I did my homework before and had received a list of prices paid recently at auction so I knew what was fair. Overall great purchasing experience by negotiating online and through e-mail. Matt at Bommarito Mazda in St. Peters, MO was also great to work with, just couldn't match the price of Ray Skillman. Being willing to travel in a 200-mile radius definitely paid off! |

There is also about a 600 holdback. Not all dealers are willing to cut into their bonus money or their holdback. The more successful negotiators got the 10000 off when negotiating from a GT I do not know if the cash is still valid. In PA I bought a GT with MSRP of 40 for 31K. It is a great vehicle except the mpg is on the low end 13-15 mpg around town with very little highway driving. With a small tank I am filling up like every 250 miles. Otherwise awesome value. |

Replying to: pjkopp (Sep 16, 2008 11:52 am) Modern vehicles, for the sake of emission, needs to heat up CAT very quickly. Therefore, it runs rich to achieve that. I have ScanGaugeII to monitor the MPG. The initial 1 to 2 miles is around 10-12mpg no matter how gentle you drive around suburb. Once the engine/CAT are heated up, it gets to 15-16mpg at suburb. It is actually very easy to achieve the EPA highway rating of 21mpg due to CX9's low drag coeff and tall 6th gear (where the 6-speed tranny shines) My experiences have been: (pure highway) 75mph -> 21-22mpg 70mph -> 22-23mpg 65mph -> 24-25mpg CX9 has very short 1st gear (4.15, that of most other vehicles in this class is about 3), which adds to the problem of low MPG around town. So, be gentle on 1st gear, lift the gas pedal to fool it into 2nd very quickly. With some adjustment, I was able to raise my overall MPG from 16mpg to 17mpg (short highway) w/o lowering driving speed. Fast acceleration kills MPG due to its mass (4500lb+). This is no difference from other heavy vehicles.

Replying to: kanada (Sep 14, 2008 10:44 am) I'm assuming you didn't get the factory towing package. I don't know how much Mazda would charge for a factory wiring harness, but you can get one online from etrailer for about $50. If you need a factory hitch, I have an unused one that I just removed that I'll sell you

Replying to: ceric (Sep 17, 2008 9:31 am) haven't tried doing this yet, but any thoughts on manually shifting into and starting to drive in 2nd gear. also, any thoughts on better/worse mpg by using automatic vs. manumatic?
