You should be able to get $7500 off retail pretty easily right now and that's without the $1000 owner loyalty deal from mazda. I'm not sure what the sticker is on the "loaded" vehicle you are referring too. If it's loaded, it could be as high as $42,000, so that would bring you down to 33.5-34.5, without too much effort. I would say forget it on the lowjack, so make them eat that. Given that it's a demo, I'd say your 33K number is more than reasonable. If they don't have many left in the area, you may not get there as they might decide to hold out, but my opinion is hold your ground on your price.

Lease opinion

I have a lease offer from a local dealer that seems good, but I don't have all the numbers...can anyone run this and give me an opinion good or bad? -Turning in a Mazda 6S 4 months early and they are paying it off. -New Mazda CX9 Sport AWD with power seat, tow hitch, roof rails. -36 month/ 15,000 annual lease is $361 all in, only thing I add is the $29 per month taxes. $0 down, Mazda makes first payment. Seems good as it is $40 per month less than the ad and it has about $900 in options.

I am from NY. What dealer did you get the $23,600 price from? I was offered a floor model for $23,990.

Did I bid too low?

Had a less than positive experience with Galpin Mazda in Valencia, CA today. Knowing that paying 4 - 4.5k below invoice is not that unusual for 09 models I called them up this morning and spoke with the sales manager telling them I wanted to pay 32k which was 5.5k below invoice for a loaded 09 Grand Touring AWD they seemingly had. He said that "I was close" and told me to come by which I did with the thought that the car can be had for 33k after some negotiations. Upon my arrival it turned out that the car was actually at another dealership and I had to wait another 45mins for it to be driven to Valencia, had I known that I'd just went there and saved myself a 20 mile trip one-way. To make the long story short, in the process I found out that it was a demo car which had 3k+ miles on it and refused paying more than 32k + TLD . They wouldn't go below 34k and I walked out. The car had a ~$600 lo-jack installed bringing the invoice to ~38k for which (the low-jack) I couldn't care less. They also told me that promotional 0% APR did not apply to discounted cars and offered 5.29% on exellent credit for 60 months. Was I balling too low and missed a good deal?

My Lease

Just leased a 2010 Mazda GT CX 9 with Moonroof/Bose and Nav. Stickered about $ 39,915. I lease a couple cars through business and seem to lease one every 18 months. As a reference to those interested this is what it came to $ 265 at signing total, $ 565./Month (includes tax) x 35 Months (Mazda pays first) and 15K miles per year. Car seems very nice so far and happy with transaction.
