Replying to: mdhutton (Oct 29, 2007 4:17 pm) Please don't respond with: "Dealers offer you lower than KBB trade-in because those numbers include all the overallowances dealers make." Even if that's true, it also includes deals signed by all the poor bastards who give their cars away--you know, all those people who can barely write and believe that whatever car they're driving actually is "soft on the market right now". I was in a Honda dealer this weekend looking for another Odyssey and heard a sales manager tell the guy in the next cubicle: "Well you know, the Prius is a little soft on the market now because the tax credit is going away".

"If more consumers would convince themselves that KBB is a much more accurate value of what their trade is worth, there would be less animosity in the negotiation process" We'd also have less animosity if car buyers drank six martinis and downed a couple hits of valium before they started negotiating, then KBB would seem to make more sense. When trading a car, KBB can only be used against you--the same goes for buying a used car. In either case, a dealer showing you KBB to support his price is trying to add false credibility to his low trade offer or high retail price. Consumers should NEVER rely on KBB values or they will lose every time. I think Edmunds offers the most realistic values on used cars and have bought and sold several cars within $500 of the Edmunds retail/trade/private party values. (I'm not such a big fan of TMV, which tends to be too high).

Replying to: vinnyny (Oct 31, 2007 1:32 am) Is 4% worth fighting for in a car deal? Sure. But my experience says that the "KBB is bad" theory is inconclusive, and that as a rule, KBB is a decent pricing guideline, just as Edmunds is. -c92 |

Replying to: seloo (Oct 28, 2007 3:17 pm) 07 CX-9 $0 under invoice. At invoice. 08 CX-9 $500 under invoice. Includes rebates. Surely, someone can beat these numbers, they are not overly impressive. Keep posting those good deals.

I'm looking to make a purchase today on a CX-9 GT AWD. I'm looking to quickly make a transaction (received all Quotes) and getting the car for 200 under invoice. Is it wise to apply for Mazda credit prior to going into the dealership or should I wait? My credit score is excellent from all three companies. Please advise Thank you

Replying to: seloo (Nov 04, 2007 10:32 am) Edmunds gives me: MSRP:$39,510 Invoice:$36,300 TMV: $39,060 Put it this way, 39k is not what I'm looking to spend on my next vehicle. I was looking to go 36 tops and preferably 34ish. I'm guessing I'll have to take off the Nav package to get in that range, but am I looking to get the car for about 500 over invoice? TMV is so high it's kind of throwing me. I could use some advice.
