Thanks Seloo, good advice.
 
I dont have unlimited time but I'm not exactly in a rush either. I've still got to look at the Highlander too and possibly a Ford Escape. I'm ok with 500 over invoice if it will get the deal done before the bad weather gets here in force. I'm gonna ignore the TMV I think.
 
Anyway I had my test drive yesterday, convinced us we wanted the CX-9 over the CX-7. Had the dealer "work up some numbers" just to get an initial feel for them. I was amused when the finance guy came back with "450 per month" for 60 months including our trade in which I know to be worth about 11k. I asked what the price of the car was and he said "i dont know". Seriously
 
Anyway I left it there because I wasnt going to make a deal then, but thought I'd share that little story.

Dash5:
 
Follow me on this.
 
$450 per month for 60 months is $27,000 plus your trade, which you say is worth $11,000. You will lay out $38,000 for this vehicle. Subract from that $300 for title, plates, etc. (I'm using figures for my area, yours could be different) and you're left with $37,700. Divide by 1.07 to account for an average sales tax percentage (7%) and you're left with $35,234.
 
If the invoice on this vehicle as equipped is $36,300, you're at about $1066 UNDER invoice for a damn fine vehicle, but we're not done yet!
 
Consider that the finance guy probably didn't quote you a deal at 0% APR, so let's assume a reasonable rate for that term -- say 5.9%. The $450 per month for 60 months at 5.9% will let us figure an "amount financed" of $23,332.
 
So in the end, the sales price is $23,332 plus your $11,000 trade for a total of $34,332.....$1968 UNDER INVOICE!
 
Please provide the name of this dealer, because if they're making deals like that, I'll buy 10 of 'em!

By my calculations if the car was priced at $36,300 (invoice) and Dash5 traded in his vehicle valued at $11,000 , the $450 payment would be based on financing about $27,000 (includes estimates for TTL) at 0.0% financing. That sounds like a good deal if it's the car he wants. The comment form the finance mgr was dumb, though. We seem to be doing a better job of "selling" the car than he did if his numbers are correct and it's a sale not a lease.

Congrats. But it is a shame that you won't be able to enjoy the car for a year, seeing as how you didn't buy it until NEXT October...
 
(I think you meant October 31, 2007 - not 2008)

Please post your deal in terms of $ under the invoice price.
        
07 CX-9 $0 under invoice. At invoice.
        
08 CX-9 $500 under invoice.
   
Includes rebates.
  
No changes on the board this week. Surely, someone can beat these numbers, they are not overly impressive.
      
Keep posting those good deals.

Back Up Camera w/Auto-Dimming Mirror Display? by zoomornot
Nov 11, 2007 (11:41 pm)

Hello -
 
After an exhaustive search, I decided I will place an order for a GT with no add on packages since I could not find one with Liquid Platinum with a Sand interior. However, I do need the Back Up camera and realized I could order the Back Up Camera w/Auto-Dimming Mirror Display without the entire Assist package (I am OK with buying the best Garmin package out there for Nav since the one that comes with the package is very mediocre I heard). I also want a GT because, I want the Blind Spot monitoring system and Blue Tooth for sure.
 
So my question to the good folks on the forum.
 
How good is the Back Up Camera w/Auto-Dimming Mirror Display? Am I making the right choice? It appears smaller in size since it is in the mirror and my belief is that it can only help and especially since it is a factory accessory and is the recommended accessory with the Touring model.
 
Also, is the IPOD jack standard on GT or do I have to order the 6 CD changer package (without the moonroof package. Moonroof packages comes with extra speakers too) ?
 
Finally, How long does it take from the time of placing the order to receive the vehicle? I heard dealers tell me from 4 to 12 weeks.
 
Too bad that there aren't many GTs out there without any packages.
 
Please advice.
 
Thanks

I talked to the dealer last week about ordering a GT CX-9 with no packages: only add-ons would be mirror with rear-camera, roof rack, splash guards, and satellite radio. He said the build-date would be mid-december, and that's only because he already had an allocation ready to go at the factory. I would figure another month for delivery, so at least 8-9 weeks out.
 
I'm in the same boat as you, apparently: I don't want to fork big money for the built-in NAV or DVD system, and dealers don't order many GT's without these. You could, however, find Tourings with no options.
 
btw, the Ipod jack is standard. However if you get Satellite radio, you have to get the dealer to install a switch box, since apparently there is a conflict between the radio and the aux-port.
