Replying to: trondeau (Apr 29, 2008 7:40 am) In Harford County, MD I recently (April, 2008) purchased an '08 awd GT for $5,600 below list, $250 document fees, and no additional fees of any type. The vehicle msrp was $40,540 with options like sunroof, bose, GT assist, remote start, a/w mats, splash guards, autodim/homelink, etc.. The vehicle had 4 miles on it. If you do the math, that's more than $2K under invoice. Also, watch Mazda when they present you with the factory invoice. There are actually two invoices, a true invoice, and the one the dealer likes to show you (the one with nearly $400 of dealer advertising factored in. To me, that is not true invoice. Under true invoice, the deal amounted to more like $2.5K under invoice. Don't be afraid to tell them where you need to be "on the road", as long as the figure is realistic. Good luck!

Hoping for some advice here on how to approach the dealerships regarding leasing a CX-9. It seems most people initially just use the internet/email as their correspondence with the dealership. I was hoping to get a sample of what someone would send to the dealership to get the negotiations started. I am looking for a GT FWD with the GT Assist and Moonroof package. I don’t want to put anything down except for the standard first months/security depot and I’m looking at a 27/36 month with 12k miles. Would it be better to negotiate the monthly payment or just shoot directly for the vehicle price (or go for both at the same time)? Thanks ahead of time! I'm in the Houston area. Boo |

Replying to: badself (Apr 30, 2008 6:54 am) I did have a trade (97 Saab 9000 with 122K miles). I wanted 2K, we settled on 1K. I could have sold it on Craigslist, etc. but I didn't want to deal with it. So, not the best deal on the board but overall I got the exact color/options I wanted. I made the deal and drove it home. Yay! |

Thanks to all who have posted purchase prices here. The info helped me, so I want to pass it on. On 4/29/08 I traded in my 01 Odyssey(127k miles) for a CX-9, Touring, w/RSES, roof rack and homelink-compass mirror. I dealt based on out-the-door price, so I wasn't concerned with how much I paid for each line item, such as doc. fee. My out-the door price was my van + $28,481. Edmond's invoice: $32,493 My costs: Base Price: $31,086.13 State/Metro Tax: $1,937.65 Drive-out tag: $5.50 Doc. Fee: $398.75 Busin. Tax: $52.97 Trade-in: Edmond's value: $3,522 My trade: $5,000 I'm comfortable with this overall deal and didn't have to haggle too much. Slightly better deals can likely be had.

Replying to: kartdad (May 02, 2008 12:56 pm) Keep you trade as a separate transaction (if you have one). Some people think they got a good deal, only to be taken on the trade. Watch out for extra fees, Mazda dealers like to add extra fees. Good Luck! Please post your numbers once you close a deal.

>> Keep you trade as a separate transaction I am not sure I got what you meant by it. This is what I did when I bought vehicles. I e-mail as many dealers as in my driving range for a quote (all except for TTL). I make sure I tell them that your dealer will be excuded if you don't reply with a real quote with $$$$. I pick the lowest three dealers among them based on the responses. I drive my trade-in to those three dealers for appraisal. Then, the lowest two deals (new vehicle cosr minus trade-in) is picked. I then, bargain between 1st and 2nd dealer for either raising the trade-in or lower the new vehicle cost. Finally, the lowest one prevails. |

Replying to: seloo (May 03, 2008 9:37 am) My plan was to negotiate the best price, (which hopefully will be less than $30,500 with no extra fees + T and L)...........then tell them I have decided to trade in my car......I would think once the price is set they don't have much room to move except to try and steal the trade.........but I think if I am somewhat realistic about what I expect to ge for it, then a deal can be struck. Plus the car I am trading in needs some expensive motor work that they may have to address before selling it at their dealership or moving it to a wholesaler......... I did stop by another dealer on my way home yesterday but they only had 2 CX-9's in stock (small dealership) and they were both the GT........didn't even talk price I just wanted to get some more info about the car.........had some questions on some options and seating, etc.........wanted to see it in person and compare it to the Audi Q7 which is another vehicle we are considering.......... Will keep you posted........... Thanks for the replies!! Much appriciated!
