What Options and what did you pay...

[DrifterStudios]

People, I'm looking to by a Mazda3 sedan with 2.3.

I went and got my first look and test drive yesterday and it looking at $18,990 for a Orange sedan with Leather, abs, sport package 1, moon roof, and wheel locks.

what did you get and at what price... looking to get the best price and figure the best way is to see what people in the real world have paid...

Thanks..

After having an Avenger ES or more apt POS, I would not recommend the 3 AT ALL, since it is esentially a Neon with a new name, as will be the Stratus in 05 when it becomes the Dodge 6. Plus, there is a cooler car with the "3" emblem and you might have heard of it.

WTF is Nikita talking about?????? (dunno)

 

[Coalette]

I have no idea what Nikita is talking about.. but um yeaaaa to my opinion its not like a dodge neon at all !!! the inside of a dogdge neon is soo plain like a focus the looks are not even close.. the 3 looks more like a Jetta from the sides with the side markers and how the doors and shape of it is... hmmmm first i have heard that one though?? someone said it looked like a Lexus to me from the back kinda...... oh well

I got the moonroof/CD package and I paid 16,500 after the $500 college rebate and the $500 Mazda rebate.

Here are a couple of options that you shouldn't pay for:

- ashtray replacement compartment (a felt lined ashtray)
- leather handbrake cover (a larger plastic covered handbrake handle)

 

[jskit cheng]

All options with a MZ3S 4-dr Automatic (yes that adds about 800-900 sucks but yeah)

I guess I shouldn't really speak since I haven't actually purchased mine yet, but as for the "real world", I'd rather make my own reality . $18,990 isn't all that bad. Figure that the invoice price for the options that you want is $18,236, and the above figure is $750 (or roughly 4%) above invoice. Dealers won't usually have much of a problem letting the car go for around $500 over invoice. Just remember, never work down from MSRP...... work up from invoice! $500 off of MSRP is still $1,000 over invoice! I got a quote IN WRITING for the 3 that I want for 2% ($345) over invoice.
