Replying to: kbedwards (Sep 28, 2007 10:32 am) After all, even the best manufacturer can make mistakes and you want to try to find them before driving off with the vehicle. Manufacturer web sites are sometimes off as well because they may not be updated right away or might be updated but the car you're looking at was from a previous batch at a previous price. Yeah, I honor a wrong price as well, but you're not talking about someone not honoring a price they quoted. You're talking about the dealer telling you that the SUGGESTED price is different from what you think it is. I'm sure they'd be happy to honor a sale at MSRP - even one $500 lower than they say it is! (grin) No, not a car dealer. Never was, never will be. I'm a computer consultant, actually. Just very detail oriented and a very "by the numbers" sort of guy (yeah, ok... say it... nerd (grin)). They may or may not be trying to put one over on you (well, since they're car dealers, I'd vote that they probably are, but that's another issue). Get them to send you a copy of the window sticker. Then you'll know 100% for sure where that $500 is. By the way, those other places you can buy the car... is it for the same price? Or higher?

Replying to: outsidegurl (Sep 28, 2007 4:34 pm) Several years ago, I had a Ford Explorer. The dealer looked at it and said all was ok. When I brought it back maybe 3 weeks later to actually return it, the front tire was suddenly worn too far and unevenly. Turns out that Explorers have/had a known problem of not being able to keep alignment so it wasn't really my fault. But it just wasn't worth the time to fight with them (and probably have to file suit) just for less than a couple hundred bucks. My last lease return in March I was actually pretty lucky with. It had a round rock hole in the corner of the windshield that the inspector didn't notice - but they DID ding me a couple hunderd for supposedly dirty back seats (which probably cost a $20 detail job). I figured that was less than the windshield would have been so I came out ahead. And I was a boy scout when I was a kid, so I always follow that motto: "Be Prepared." |

Replying to: warever (Sep 29, 2007 2:37 pm) MSRP 37235 Invoice 34200 Our sale price 36200 We were going by edmunds what people were paying figure which was 36800. I think we could have done better maybe in the 1000-1500 less, but over all we are happy. Its a very nice ride. We also got 6.99 for 72 months. |

All the dealers in our area were offering $200 over invoice for 2008s, rather than work down from MSRP. 2007 models were being offered at $500 below invoice, but I couldn't find a suitable car. I"m sure dealers hate the internet, but it has been great as a buyer! I just bought a 2008 CX-9 GT AWD (beautiful black cherry/sand) with the RSES from Menlo Mazda in Redwood City, CA. I paid $100 over invoice. Nice folks and the transaction went smooth. We love the car, too! -steve

| Went to dealer yesterday on Long Island. Gave me story about how in demand 2008 CX-9 is. First said he would give around $1,000 off sticker. Then said that because of a program I am eligible for, best was 2% over invoice (for Touring, FWD and maybe RSES). Any recent experience in NYC/Long Island, Northern New Jersey area? | |

I am looking to get a Galaxy Gray with Sand Interior 08 GT with Nav, Moon/Bose, remote engine start. They are giving me a price of $37,083 - it is the Splan price, although I am not eligible for Splan. I am asking them to throw in roof racks as well (I am holding out until they do). I plan on getting an aftermarket 2" hitch for a bike and luggage carrier I already have (no trailer towing, so don't need whole towing package). The dealer will have to get the car from another dealer in the region. A couple of questions : (1) Anybody every seen the Galaxy Gray and Sand together? I have seen them individually and think they will look great, but want to be sure. (2) Splan must be higher than invoice, as invoice for this vehicle is $36580 according to Edmunds and Consumer Reports. If I can get $500 over invoice and then save more on roof racks ($200 invoice), it is good enough for me. What do you think? |

Replying to: bill124 (Oct 01, 2007 7:05 am) I'm in the Boston area and have just started looking at new CUV's. I stopped by a Mazda dealership about three weeks ago and took a look at the CX-9. Since then, I have been trying to find one on the road to show my wife, as it will be her car that we are replacing. I have yet to see a CX-9 on the road. Last weekend we drove to Maine, so its not like I haven't had the opportunity to spot one. My point is, I highly doubt that this car is in as much demand as the Dealer is saying, at least around my area. Honest, if we decide on the CX-9, I would'nt pay more than invoice for it. There are plenty of options to choose froom in this class, each with there pros/cons. Just don't get emotionally attached to the car during negoitations and you should be fine. Even if there are more CX-9's on the road in NJ, just remember that your $$$ is always in more demand than any make/model on the road.
