Grand Rapids Michigan - East Imports/Fox Motors. They looked up a list of companies eligible for the Splan, and mine was on it. Our HR department did not have any codes to give me though. Our fleet manager eventually gave me the name of our Ford fleet rep (even though Fords are no longer part of our fleet) to get a PIN. I had the price I wanted by then.

Enjoy. Thanks for the info. If you don't mind me asking, what did you put down and how much are the payments at 1.9% 36 mos. I usually just do a cash deal.

Looking for a 2008 GT AWD White (E)/Black (I)TowPkg/NAV/RSES/roofrails/CompassMirrorHomelink/Splashguards/BSMS
 
Has anybody obtained a good price on a vehicle (any color) with these options?
 
Here in West Palm Beach Florida is difficult to find an AWD which is useful here in the rainy season.
Towing package is also difficult to find here but not in midtown Manhattan Mazda inventories.
The “combo” Remote entry start, something not needed in this climate and many Florida dealer inventories are full of CX-9 with it.
Sirius Satellite is Radio is another dubious “combo” since this may impair the operation of your iPod.
The wheel locks “combo” can be bought in the Mazda dealer parts store or in the Internet at a lower price but many 2008 CX-9 have it.
The roof rails look nice but I do not know if the will create much turbulence of air flow to increase road noise, besides they can only hold 100 pounds.
White (E)/Black (I) is difficult to find everywhere in the U.S., painting a car white pearl is not more expensive than any other metallic paint but they charge $200 for it, go figure.

I put no money down and the payments are $1100 per month. I could have paid cash for the car, but that would not have made any financial sense. If you can borrow at a lower rate than you can earn after taxes (1.9% vs 3.4%), you should push off payments as long as possible. If they had given me a choice between cash back and the 1.9%, my breakeven point would be about $960. I.E. if the cash back is $1000, I take that and pay cash for the car. If the cash back is only $500, I take the 1.9% financing, make payments, and keep my cash in the Vanguard MMF.

I think many would find it useful to cool the car off before you get in it...

Most car companies charge more for pearl paint. What makes you think it's not more expensive for that type of paint?

White pearl is a white metallic nothing else, is not more complex to accomplish than any other metallic color, but there is great demand for it, therefore profit.
BMW charges more for their metallic colors, but most other companies do not.
Remote entry start is marketed mostly for winter/snow season locations.

If you don't think it is worth the $200, just choose another color. I have seen premium color charges at more than BMW. Toyota charges $220 for their white Pearl on some cars. Saab has 3 times as many premium colors as basic ($550 each). Like you said, supply and demand rules

It doesn't have a use when the temparature is in the 90's and up half the year? I'd personally rather get in a freezing car than a boiling hot one.
