North Dakota Mazda Car Dealers

Great, congrats NDS, enjoy the car!

You had agood deal. I'dlike tohear from others about best prices as I want a GT (need the Xenon), don't care if 4 or 5 dr, but want manual. hard to find so how low can I expect? Offered 3% above invoice best so far. How are dealers selling below invoice if no breaks to dealership? Also never cared about color before as long as not black or red, but the 3 colors are too flashy for me, so silver nd gray left. Does the driver seat rise up or down, forgot to check.

Im shopping in NYC dealer for mazda 3 hatchback, new and used. a dealer quote a new 3 hatchback with leather seat+ abs 18K. and another dealer quote about 18500 for base + ABS package. , nd said he may able to lower to 18K if i really want to buy it. In both cases, i didnt negoatia much because i havent get my finance done yet. On the other hand, I also checking few used 2004 3 hatchback, a dealer quote 15350 just base(with spolier) but no abs or moonroof. milage is ok around 16K. I think i able to get it to15K but i havent really bargain with the dealer. The car is in good condition, only 1 very littele scratch and the interior is like brand new. I dont have much experience in buying car, how is these pricing? also, the new car is 3K different from the used, is the used better value? Thanks

It is definitely interesting to see the Pricing sheet of the dealer.. They never mention the S-Plan anywhere. They work out of the MSRP.. and gave me enough discounts to match the price on the S-plan.probably for tax purposes. Basically the car's S-plan was $21350 (including the$2500 rebate). ince we negotiated $6k for my eclipse. I paid $15350+taxes+transfer of egistration for a total of $17,xxx (not sure exactly how much). I am pretty sure they overcharged me on the transfer of registration nd fees. because according to MA RMV, it costs only some $30 to transfer.. probably even less like $16. but these guys charged me $125.. probably for convinience. I didn't know that i had 7 days for registration... and that i could've walked off from the dealership and done the registration myself. The dealership was 30 miles away from my home... I think it was more rouble to go back to the dealership to pick up my new registration than to the RMV.. and i had to pay extra for that "convinience" ;-) ;-) anyways.. a $100-$200 more.. on a $21k car.. i didn't think too much of it at that time. ;-) and i guess they also count on it. I presume they are computerized..and don't even send somebody to the dealership anymore.. so no extra labor involved. like in the old days.. when someone used to go from the dealership to the RMV every morn to finish the registrations of the cars sold the previous day.
