Is this a good deal? should I push for more? seems to be only $7k discount when others speaking of $10k.
 
really don't mean to be smart here, but...... didn't you sorta answer your own question?

Your $30K offer is reasonable for an 08, not sure you can get that kind of discount on a 09. My hint is to go after the ones that have been in stock for more than 3 months.
 
Be on the lookout for the mileage, many of the loaded CX9 GT's have been sitting on the lot for several months. Our local dealer had two of them with nearly 6000 miles on the odo. If your dealer tries to blindside you all the way to the where you sign the odo statement, my hint is: let it slide and act surprised when the moment comes, it is yet another chance to threaten to walk away and another chance to get more discounts. If the dealer insists on it being all the same, let them spend all the time they need to make their case and then transfer the same offer to an equivalent unit without the mileage. It works all the time.
 
The navi resolution is great on mine, and it is super simple to use (I work with computers though.) It just guided us back and forth on a 100 mile stint to a remote farm. The backup camera is indeed useless, but I think it may be a matter of getting used to it after 20+ years of looking over my shoulder while backing up.
 
The BMS is almost a must in this car though. The rear-right corner is a liability if you have someone sitting on the right of the middle seat.
 
$27K would be an excellent price for your alternative, but bear in mind you are taking away $3K from the table for roughly $2.3K worth of options (2500 - 200) . Combined with the lower vehicle value, you are trying to go from a 25% discount to a 30% discount. At that point they may try and steer you towards a $25K Mazda5 GT.

My offer of $30K for an "internet special" of a CX-9 fully loaded priced at $31,300 (MSRP 40k) was REJECTED. It is only $1,300 difference. The dealer told me that they would hold firm on the two "internet special" deals. So I don't even brother to give them a offer
 
Oh well, need 24 hours to think it over.

If you made the offer online, I say take your checkbook and drive over there. Stop by over the weekend, take note of the registration dates on all windshield stickers to get an idea of how many units have been sitting on the lot for how long.
 
If it is more than 5-6 months, chances are they will let it go for $30K. Sorry for the Mazda dealers reading this, it *is* a wonderful vehicle, but with 18mpg, high gas prices, a set of tires costing nearly $1K, and this economy, very few people are going for a near-luxury SUV.

I agree.
 
CX-9 is a wonderful car. But with the gas price and the economy, this car moves up to the luxury category, at least for me. Also I think 20-25% off from a inflated MSRP at the last days of a model year is not unreasonable. Besides this dealer (and others around here in MA) consistantly has 18-19 of '08 models CX-9 in the lot, accordingly to the mazdausa inventory website. I think I have more time to wait than this dealer has.

On Long Island, my offer of 10k off msrp for a black cherry mica 08 GT AWD was rejected as well. Dealer came back with offer of 7k off msrp. I passed. He stated that Mazda's web site is inaccurate and there isn't nearly the number of 08 cx9s out there. He said there are 8 black cherry's in Pennsylvania, none in New York, and he might be able to get me one. Funny stuff. That's ok. As I told him, time is on my side. I'm sure he'll be e-mailing me again. And when he does, 10k might not be enough.

Dealer Cash??? by jay13

I have a dealer offering me S plan on a $40,845 CX-9 (2008). This drops $3100 off the price to $37,700. If I am buying, she says there is $5,000 of cash from Mazda which takes the car down to $32,700. Is this Mazda cash how everyone is getting these quotes of $7-10k off? I don't see it on the incentives page.
 
If I want zero percent for 5 years, the $5k goes away and the payment is $685 per month, which is $38,800 for the car before sales tax. What gives? Seems really high.
 
Oh, and a 39 month lease with 15,000 miles per year had, get this, a 44% residual value!!!! $564 a month for an '08? I don't think so.

Just to add to the common theme here, I am not getting close to $10k off MSRP that other Houston area members are getting.
 
The offers I am getting is between $3.5k to $8.4k off MSRP from the same dealers that were reported offering $10k off from other Houston area members.
 
I guess all Mazda dealers decided to hang tough.
 
Not exactly sure what are they thinking. The stock market is crashing. The housing is going down. The cars are just getting older as days go by. Do they honestly thinking that time is on their side?
 
Anyway, I am going to wait for November 11th. That is when the newest issue of Consumer Report annual reliability report will come out. If CX-9 is ranked below average, bye bye CX-9 and hello Highlander.

IMHO, the constituency that CR bases its ratings on is not representative. But you raise an interesting point. Does anyone have an extended warranty on their CX-9? If so, who dod you go through and how much was it.
 
My general opinion is that these are a scam, but just asking. I would have about 10,000 miles at the end of my lease where I'd be out of the bumper-to-bumper.

Hi lock... quick fyi, i was one of the ones who received $10k off offers on 08 cx-9's in houston, HOWEVER, that offer expired back on Labor Day weekend (end sep/beg oct). After that, those same dealers changed their promo to $9k off. they claimed it was due to a 'change in incentives'.
 
I stopped pricing the cx-9 after that, and switched to the cx-7, which i ended up getting for only $17k ($7k off msrp).
 
I hear ya (and agree) about the highlander. i shopped those pretty hard as well. i just wasn't willing to fork over the extra several thousand they were asking (aka Toyota premium) compared to the zoom-zoom mobiles...
