After visiting the Manhattan Automobile Company (New York City, NY) and selecting a vehicle (2008 CX-9 GT AWD), I entered into a round of negotiations with the salesman, which lasted for a week. Finally, the salesman and I agreed on a price and the attached financing package for the vehicle that I was looking to buy. Having reached a verbal agreement over the phone, I went to the showroom and signed the order form and filled out and provided the relevant details to complete the purchase. The salesman took my order form to the general manager for approval and that is when things went awry. Not only did the general manager back out of the contract and refused to do the deal but he also greatly insulted me for negotiating the price and the financing terms. 1) I, as the buyer, have a right to negotiate. If the showroom did not want to then they should have said so and not indulged me into a week long discussion. 2) If we did end up negotiating, the last thing you want to do is blame the customer for doing so when your own salesman is the one who is putting forth revised terms and conditions. I have never been to a more uncouth establishment and would recommend that one should only go there if they want a free bag of insults and a truly inhospitable customer service experience.

Replying to: seaweed20 (Jan 23, 2009 6:13 pm) 2008 GT Sticker - $41,500 purchase price - $33,250. Not sure but probably could have gotten a bit more off. Great to deal with and gave us a bottle of wine whne we were leaving.

Replying to: seaweed20 (Jan 23, 2009 6:06 pm) When you spoke with them over the phone, did they say "we are taking $9,000 off any 08 CX-9"? Manhattan Mazda is my neck of the woods and all customers I have had tell me they are offering that over the phone to start negotiations.

Grey CX-9 Touring AWD with Bose/moon roof, tow package, roof rails for $28,541. This is after the $4250 discount and includes 5.69% financing. I'm shopping around for better rates. Does that price sound ok? Thanks for any input, Jon |

Replying to: aviboy97 (Jan 24, 2009 10:01 am) I see a lot of posts on discounts that are available on a 2008 model. Does anybody know what are the discounts being offered on a 2009 GT?
