Replying to: jeffyscott (Aug 28, 2008 5:46 am) I live in Illinois near the Iowa border,and you will not find any of those ridiculous discounts unless you're looking at an expensive minivan or SUV,and only certain brands,like Hyundai or KIA.

Replying to: mickeyrom (Aug 28, 2008 8:28 am) a 2008 Mazda6 equipped as he described was selling all over Chicagoland for $5k to $5.5k off sticker. Chicago area is not that far from where you live and I'm sure heavy discounting went out to Central IL just to stay competitive with the Chicago market. That is not far from where you live.

I just bought a 2008 Mazda6 4 cylinder with a MSRP of $22.1K for $17K before taxes and DMV fees. so a 5.1K discount. I also had the option to buy a fully loaded IGT for 20.5K which included leather, heated seats, sunroof, Bi-XEON's etc |

Replying to: mickeyrom (Aug 28, 2008 9:48 am) The $2750 is for all Mazda6 sedans and hatchbacks. Where did it say otherwise?

Replying to: mickeyrom (Aug 28, 2008 9:08 am)  Is comparing the pricing of midsize sedans is considered to be off-topic here in the midsize sedans comparison discussion? Clearly you are surprised by what the actual selling price of the Mazda6 had been, as I had postulated  . The point being that Kia and Hyundai are not the only lower priced options in the midsize segment. The Mazda6 and at times Ford Fusion (which had $4000 rebates not too long ago, IIRC) have presented similar values (to Sonata and Optima) in terms of selling prices. The 2008 Mazda6i touring, with the optional moonroof added, has MSRP of $23760 and invoice is $21,926. You must be looking at a grand touring to get up to $25K in a 4 cyl. Based on edmunds model review the grand touring vs. the touring adds: xenon headlights, foglamps, a sunroof, electroluminescent gauges, automatic climate control and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. These were usually selling at or below invoice in the Chicago and Milwaukee areas, so that would be around $21,900 for the touring and $23,000 for the grand touring. They have had rebates of $2500-3000 nearly continuously for at least 2-3 years...so that puts the final price at about $19,000-$19,500 for the touring and $20,000 to $20,500 for the grand touring for just about anyone who asked. At auto show time (in 2007, not sure about 2008) Mazda even had an extra $1000 rebate in this area, that was available on top of the normal $3000ish rebates. Not sure why you are so defensive/irritated, we are just sharing information. No one is saying "hey, you should have bought something else", we are just comparing mid-size sedan info...kind of the point here, I thought.
