Help me negotiate on a CX9 by filling out my survey :)

[Osiris1975]

I thought to do this from some ideas on a thread I started the other day.
If you don't mind, I'd like to know the following from folks who own CX9s. I plan to be armed with this information when I begin negotiating on my own CX9.
If anyone who doesn't mind disclosing what they paid could reply and fill out these fields I'd be grateful!

Year:
Trim level:
Miles:
Sticker Price:
Paid Price:
Region of Country:

Thanks!

I bought mine used on Aug-09 so my info may be a little skewed:

2007
Touring FWD
44,000
$26,995
$19,400 OTD
So. California

No offense, but how much I got the deal in 2008 seems like an useless piece of info to you for buying today. What you need is the deals made recently.
AFAIK, the $4500 rebate on 2009 model has ended on 11/30.
With that plus $1000 owners' loyalty discount, one could get up to $9500 off MSRP for a $40K+ MSRP CX9.
For 2010 CX9, the best deal is probably near invoice + 1.9% APR. Owner's loyalty discount still exists, of course. For more, edmunds.com seems to have more posts on buying experiences. I would check it out over there if I were you.

Here is the forum Ceric was referencing, it should have much more information for you on this topic.

thanks, bookmarked that link.

I realize if someone bought the car in 2008 it doesn't help me much. But what I'm really looking at is the difference between sticker price and paid price so as to get an idea of how much below sticker I should go with my initial offer.

2009
GT AWD with Bose/Assist Package
15
40215 + 2K Dealermarkup which you just ignore
31000
Pacific NW

As Ceric said, that's irrelevant because everyone's deal was specific to the offers given at the time. If the $4500 factory to dealer isn't being offered anymore, the dealer is not going to give you the same deal or come off sticker anywhere close to what that person was able to achieve. For example, I got $7500 off sticker back in July, but that included $4000 factory to dealer cash. Without that, there is no way the dealer would have come off that much.

Dealer Incentive 4500
Mazda Loyalty 1000 (I planned ahead on this - Borrowed my friend's mazda truck, paid for the DMV fee's to get it in my name and back to their name)
Invoice ~3500

2007 GT. Ordered the second month they were out and waited for five months for delivery. We bought at S-Plan (invoice) less an additional $450 for a certificate that came in the mail before we took delivery. If I were buying today, I would start my negotiations at invoice as I have since found out that Mazda dealers regularly will sell a vehicle for less than it the invoice says they paid for it.

2010
GT AWD

$41,000
$37,000
Maryland

0.0% for 60 months, that was the factor that got me to make the deal, I basically saved like $4300 compared to private financing at 4.5% and I didn't think I would see $4k in dealer incentives so I went for it.
