Replying to: lockloop (Oct 24, 2008 7:35 am) Yes, losing money on inventory makes total sense in a down economy. Are you kidding me? That's the best way to go out of business. Selling at those outrageous discounts only happened when the threat of 09's were on the horizon, as well as the rest of dealer inventory was consistently going out the door, therefore sales objectives were met, and paid incentives over came the initial losses on the CX-9's. Since overall sales are down, dealers still need to keep the doors open, and are not reluctant to sell at those outrageous discounts because there is a reality that the dealer may not reach their set objective, therefore not getting their payout. It makes perfect sense. What helps is Mazda cut back production of CX-9's, and dealers have trimmed inventory. There is not the extreme need to move these 08's anymore.

They do not like it much (really cannot blame them), but that is the way it works in a supply and demand system. At some point, Mazda has to give the dealers enough factory to dealer cash to clear the 08 inventory. Time is on the side of the customer!

New to this and here is what I got...a 2008 Touring with a MSRP of $36350 was quoted to me at the X-plan price of $33750 ($2600 off MSRP) with a $4250 dealer cash (4250 not 4500) for a total price of $29500 and new car interest rate of course, not the 0%. Question, can I from all your experience really do better than this?

Replying to: paulo6 (Oct 25, 2008 12:43 pm) The dealer engagement cash is $4,250, they are right. It is not $4,500. You cannot combine the $4,250 with the 0% financing. Again, they are right. If you are putting a good amount of money down, the rebate might be the best way to go. If you are financing the whole thing, the 0% is the way to go. |

Replying to: paulo6 (Oct 25, 2008 12:43 pm) The MSRP is pretty high. I imaging you want a Touring with tons of options. You might consider getting a Grand Touring instead. Use Edmunds to check if the MSRP is around the ball park. link title You got $6.8k under the MSRP. I got quote that is $8.4k under the MSRP and I am not happy. But our situation might be different. You might need the car in a hurry. If you absolutely want this particular car from this particular dealer, you shall buy it. But maybe another dealer 30 miles away might have a car that maybe acceptable to you. Use link title to check for availability. Apply auto financing yourself to see what is the rate. CaptialOne offers a rate of 5.44% for 36 months. I am able to get even better at my local credit union. If you absolutely have to have that car right now. Buy it now. It might be gone in a few days. But knowing that we are in the middle of one of the greatest financial crisis, the chance that this vehicle will be gone is very low. In addition, if you are willing to shop around and wait, you will most likely do 1 or 2 thousands of dollars better. I hope I helped.

I just pulled the trigger on this one: 2008 AWD Touring with moonroof/Bose as the only option. Sticker: $35,310 Invoice: $32,584 Out the door: $25,950 (does not include TTL). The build date on this vehicle was 10/2007. I did not pay the doc. fee ($199), told them I wasn't financing with them so there wasn't much for them to do. I always feel I could have done better, but feel this was a very good, though not excellent, deal. I also got Kelly's "good" condition for my trade. The dealer, www.woodhouse.com, has more than forty 2008 CX-9s in stock and about thirteen 2009's. In addition to mine with the build date of 10/2007, I looked at a well equipped Sport with a build date of 08/2007. Both had 50 miles on them. John
