Not to mention that most of the cars end up needing some sort of re conditioning like tires and fluid changes. Add that to shipping costs, they get quite pricey. That is why you see them listing for $17,000. If you want to get technical, $16,990. |

Replying to: m6user (Aug 28, 2008 2:50 pm)  A big dealer here in the DC area with many brands sold their last Mazda6 VE last week for around $17200. (no haggle internet price) A similair car used at their sister Nissan store is also $17200  http://www.fitzmall.com/fitzway/carfind/RESULTSB.ASP?V_XREFID=R13WR0022839654390- - 62 I started shopping for my car in early May and the best deals were to be had around memorial day on Mazda's both 3 and 6's. Right now the 3's are at least $500 above invoice. I do see discounting on the 09 6's already, as seen at Fitzmall.com

Replying to: thegraduate (Aug 20, 2008 6:26 am) My friend was referring to the inside of the car not the skin and the way it drove. I don't think I conveyed it clearly. Also, I agree with most folks that voted against the Passat. The new Passat, I feel, is a step down from the B5/B5.5. When time comes to replace my Passat (in 6-8 months), I will most likely will not look at the cars listed in this forum and probably because I will be buying a wagon. My criteria is that it should be a) reasonably sized, b) is fun to drive, c) have decent fuel economy and d) have stick shift. I am open to suggestions. |

Replying to: moveover (Aug 28, 2008 6:22 pm) The $17,200 for the 08 Mazda6 is probably about $600-$800 more than they are going for in Chicago although there are very few 08s left. I've seen some used priced at maybe 16,900 with very low miles but that is obviously not what they are getting for them. I would think that $17,200 used car will end up getting bought for no more than $16000 if that.

Replying to: m6user (Aug 28, 2008 6:57 pm) Might be true, but you have to look at the options too. Most VE's in this area did have auto, sunroofs and/or spoiler which can easily add $800 to the price. Our VE had a MSRP of $22.1K and we paid $17 and probably could have done better in May. |

Replying to: moveover (Aug 28, 2008 7:19 pm) I'm just amazed that the same used cars sell for that much difference in price when the new ones don't. Maybe it's a regional mentality thing or something. Like I said, there 63 out of 84 used 2007s listed for sale in my area under $16000 and most right around $15000. And those are asking prices! Obviously, this a mixture of GTs, Touring and VEs. Not many of the base models were sold around here. |

Replying to: moveover (Aug 28, 2008 7:48 pm) No, as I looked threw them it was a smattering of all types and all kinds of miles. I know what you mean though, there was probably a good number ex-rentals but certainly not close to all. |
