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

Replying to: paulo6 (Oct 25, 2008 7:27 pm) you are currently getting "invoice" (which, despite its name, still has dealer profit in it) and cash back. you be able to get up to another $2500-3000 IF: (1) dealer will take more off "invoice" (maybe up to $1000) (2) dealer gets and gives you the bonus money he gets for meeting sales goals (up to $2000) a final note, i generally don't like car dealers, and i generally think they try to rip people off. that said, i think people should use this forum and other available information to get a good deal, but still pay a fair price. if there is truly no profit in a sale for a fealer, then you are helping put the dealer out of business. if we all take the view of "these are bad economc times, so squeeze out every penny," then we help create and continue that bad economy. i hope i'm never put in the position of selling at a loss because i'm forced to. my 2 cents...

just bought cx-9 touring. didn't want the GT bells and whistles, but really wish i had the memory driver's seat. does anyone know if it is possible to get a memory unit and hook up to the driver's seat in my touring? i would think the seat up is the same and only a memory chip and the memory buttons would be different, so i could just attach/plug-in a memory seat unit. all thoughts welcome, including where to get memory unit, how much to pay for it, ability to self install, how much to pay to install. thnx.

i've seen ads for fuel chips for cx-9s (and car generally) that claim to improve fuel economy AND driving performance (more HP). see link below (it's long) what do people know about these? what is the down side of getting a chip that improves fuel econ and gives more HP? all thoughts welcome. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_Car-Truck-Parts-Accessories__PERFORMANCE-CHIP-MA- ZDA-CX9-2007-2008_W0QQitemZ250313734647QQadiZ2865QQadnZCarQ20Q26Q20TruckQ20Parts- Q20Q26Q20AccessoriesQQcmdZViewItem?hash=item250313734647&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245&_- trkparms=72%3A331%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318

Replying to: nswartzb (Oct 26, 2008 7:14 am) You can have "re-programmed" chip to slightly improved HP, usually at the expense of higher gas consumption. But you can't have higher HP and higher MPG. Phyically, it is not possible. Energy has to come from somewhere.

Replying to: paulo6 (Oct 26, 2008 7:49 am) What you might consider (and what i wish i would have done) is determine the discounts you're getting, and add on the s-plan. I believe you're entitled to other promos / discounts IN ADDITION TO the s-plan price. think i read that on the ford partner site. of course, they can always refuse to give you s-plan plus other discounts, but you never know unless you ask!  which i did not  regarding being ...put in the position of selling at a loss because i'm forced to... i don't know that dealers are being 'forced' to do anything. i know with my experience, the dealers i contacted and negotiated with were several thousand dollars apart. at 1st, i was amazed. didn't matter that dealer X was offering the same vehicle for $X thousand less, etc. other dealers simply said they could not get there. perhaps b/c they would be selling at a loss?  Through this thread, I then learned about the various sales tiers, month end / year end bonuses for meeting sales quotas, and how that can translate to the different dealer offers... |
