Find Mazda Dealers in New Orleans, Louisiana

Around $22,000 for basic 2WD, XLT, 4 cylinders, around 5,000 miles, if you can believe that. Escapes (and most Fords these days) are pricey. Limited 6 cylinders 4WD are about $25,000. Hybrids are about $30,000. Unbelievable, no? Frankly, you may as well buy a 2011 new.

My lease is up and the residuals are down on the new lease. I am aware of the $1250.00 lease cash available, are their additional incentives available that are not public knowedge? (ie. advertising money, regional money or individual dealer cash) I am looking at a new lease on a CX-9 Touring from Hood Mazda in Hammond, La. with a MSRP of $33,375.00 and an invoice of $31,166.00. 36 month lease, 12k per year, MF=0.00052 and residual of 46%.

You should look in LA too if you want a new 08 GT Auto- there's a bunch up here. The GTs might be harder to get at 2k below invoice- they didn't seem to order too many of them- i tourings should be around 2k or so off invoice.

I am new to the process of leasing and/or buying new cars. Just test drove a 3 and friggin love it. live in San Diego, but have noticed outrageously drastic differences in advertised prices between san diego and neighbors to the north (orange county, LA).... I am looking to lease a Mazda 3, trim irregardless except that I want power everythign and the 2.3 L engine (the 2.0 is just not enough for me..) i am looking for a 3 year lease - i actually plan on buying the car at the end, so I don't know if its worth getting the 15k or or the 12k, but im wondering what i should expect in terms of lease offers. I have approximately 1500 to 2k to put down. also - what are the fees that dealers normally include that can actually be waived and or lowered? I am willing to put down money but would prefer that money be SIMPLY a down payment and not a million fees. Please help me somebody...i am trying to do the right thing here.

except for the haggle over my trade. That's more than likely where they got you, if anywhere. It's undefined like the invoice on your new car is, and you can't always tell if you're getting good value on the trade. OTOH, the Dealer is guessing what they can sell it for, either wholesale or retail, and betting they are right. There are a ton of variables with used car trades - I've been burned on so many, where I bought them with a margin, and eat that margin up, and more in repairs or reconditioning for unexpected defects. Seems we all tend to stretch the truth a little when selling our car, either to the dealer, or as the dealer in the case of used cars.
