Hey my new MS6 is white, how much for your front bumber, fenders and hood? (doh).

I like your rims - they go nice with the white.

Thanks, I really like the white too.

As for the bumper, humm....maybe we can work out something for your moonroof :p

Mine stickered for $29,070, bought it for $21000 last week. I'm sure there are always better deals, but I felt this was a no brainer and that's what I offered them and they gave me what I said it would take on my trade. Win win!
 
Picked up my GT today. No nav, 25000 with tax out the door (7% tax rate). I leased for 333/month for 24 months 12000 miles, $0 down FWIW.

That is pretty good! Just over $23k before TTL, right? Was it a unit with a moonroof? Can you share the dealership name?
 
hey guys, I was thinking of going with an MS6 but I dont know what I should expect in terms of rebates and all that good stuff. I was thinking '06 MS6 cause of the lower prices, but before I start going to dealers I wanna know what I SHOULD be getting off before negotiations start.

Thanks for the answers everyone
 
A lot will depend upon the area you are in. I bought my '06 Speed6 10 days ago from a dealer in Cincinnati. Worked on them for a month, got them down to $24,900 for a GT w/moonroof (MSRP was $31,225). TTL and all the other stuff I ended up with $27,000 OTD. The salesman told me I bought it for the cheapest amount of any Speed6 they had sold. Probably BS, but who can say?

You probably did, since the cars keep aging in the lots, and must keep getting reduced to match the market value. The older these leftovers get, the less they are worth, and the cheaper they have to go for. Market value is already low, so the price everyone is paying now, is around the price the car is worth. Sure, based on MSRP, getting an 06 Sport for lets say $21000 is absolutely fabulous, but it's about the same as back in summer when one got one for $23000, and in early 06 when someone got it for $25000-$26000. That's what depreciation does. :)

Regardless, it's a great car for the money, and as long as one keeps it for a long time, you gain the benefits of it. I know I'm keeping mine, because I wanna solidify this great deal by putting lots of miles on it, and having it for plenty of years. If I unload it in two years like I have with my past cars, the bargain I got is useless. Enjoy. :)
 
I don't buy cars often, and I keep them for a long time (case in point, my '81 RX-7 bought in November '80 which I have to this day). I get what I want no matter if it is popular or easy to resell. I am happy with the deal I got, the car is awesome and with the few mods I have planned will be even better. Now I just have to come up with a name for her!

For anyone sitting on the fence, while you don't know me or anyone else who recommends this car, if you are any sort of enthusiast you will appreciate this car.
 
so what offers is Mazda USA doing right now, meaning offers that a dealership should honor? I'm guessing dealers will have their own offers to, but I wanna know what should be the starting point price wise with dealers.

Well with those habits in car buying, you did very very well. The great thing about this car is that you don't even have to be that big of a car enthusiast to love it. The Mazda 6 itself is a fabulous daily driver that a lot of the general public (non enthusiast crowd) loves, and this is simply a better version of it. It took me a while to get used to the big heavy feel, since I was always a compact guy, but now it's really grown on me. As long as it's reliable, and capable of a lot of miles without major problems before 100k miles, I'll be keeping it for a very long time, and driving it to it's grave (Hopefully longer then 10 years, but I drive my daily cars 20k+ miles a year, so that might be a long shot with a car like this). I do a lot of highway driving, and I'm very gentle with cars, and maticulous with maintanence, so if it doesn't last it's not because of how I treated it.

Any sort of enthusiast would appreciate this car, but keep in mind it's not for everyone. For one you need to be committed to it because of it's market failure and fast depreciation in the first 4-5 years, and not be after the next best thing. That's where I'm gonna begin to train myself. Since this is a daily driver, and I can swap out my fun weekend car (currently 06 S2000) to cure my need to explore the hottest new sports car. Secondly, you shouldn't buy a car like this with purely the intention of a track/autocross/weekend fun car, because you may grow tired of it. There are simply much better options out there, the Speed 3 being one of them, if pure enthusiast is on your mind, and you want a lightweight weekend fun machine to modify and only take out on nice days. I do not believe this car is intended for that, nor should it be used for that, but whoever feels it does, and will use it that way, the more power to ya. :)

As for the above question to Huascar82, generally negotiations on this car kind of fall in your lap, because of the super lease incentive. All areas are different of course, and prices range, so you'll have to figure that out on your own. For purchasing, I'd expect a possible cash back incentive (whatever it is in your area, check Mazdausa.com), and a starting price of that incentive minus the invoice price (check Edmunds.) That's what they did with me. However, since it's now nearly 2007, and not summer of 06, the starting price could be lower, and you'll be starting from a lower point (below invoice plus the cash back incentive). I then haggled from there until I couldn't any longer, and exhausted them out to their rock bottom. You can then negotiate from that point as I did, and show reluctance, like you are ready to walk if the price isn't met. That's my .02 of advice, as it has always worked for me. Good luck!!

1350 miles

first post here....


I paid $23499.00 (plus TTL) (6% MI tax)

I purchased the car in VA!! Found it on autotrader with 2100 miles and is Certified Pre-Owned

5 year 62k miles 'basic' warranty
8 year 100k mile powertrain warranty

Better than new and sticker was closing in on $34,000.

This is a 2006 MS6 GT with Navigation, moonroof (sunroof?), cargo net, autodim compass mirror, wheel locks.

I couldn't believe the price...hence why I drove 650 miles one-way to pick it up!!!(shocked)

-Mike

p.s. the reason why it is 1350 miles and not 1300 (650*2) is because I didn't have 'toll roads' allowed when I used navigation to get home! LOL <doh> (RTM)

Fisrt post here, got some great info on getting my power windows to work from the drivers side (down, up, hold for click on each window) saved a 40 mile trip to the dealer.

Snagged my speed6 a week ago w/900 miles for $23,600. Every option except navigation, titanium gray, never titled.

Quick question, does anyone know how to adjust the keyless to lock the doors automatically when you walk away and unlock when you approach the car?

*I love this car, my daily commute is 45 miles one way, I have a "friend" in a green Ford Ranger who used to tell me to "slow down" with his improvised sign language as I passed in my VW Jetta. I go by too fast to see what he's doing in my new speed6!
