You said you got over 5K off the MRSP, when you factored in taxes and destination fee, what was the net savings?
I only ask because all the fees/taxes were included in my original offer.
Thanks
I really don't know when the 2012s will be out but I would expect them in Sept or Oct. Because they are coming out with some new advanced engines it's possible they may be even later. I'm guessing based on when Mazdas have usually came out in the past and from what I've read.
What was the actual sales price of the vehicle they were quoting you, not including TTL, but after deducting for your trade and the rebate?
Whenever there is a trade involved it's hard to pin down the exact deal you're getting because they can give you more than you think your trade may be worth but less off on the new car or vice versa, lower price on the new car....screw you on the trade. If you have a good idea of what your trade is worth and they are giving you that, it makes it a lot easier.
The original quote they gave me a week ago included $1463.95 in taxes and fees. This new quote I just got already includes all those fees. So I'm looking at $17520 out the door.
I feel my trade value is on par with the going rate.
Just bought a car last night at invoice using Zag.com/Overstock. Try there.
17520 OTD
-1464 ttl
=$16056
+2000 trade
=$18056 paid for car
MSRP was $20950 or thereabouts. So the $18056 is about $3000 under list.
25,246 (the sticker is 29,400 and the dealer cost is 25,900).
Could this be true or is truecar over estimating the best deal?
Now this was back in 2005 and 2008, but both times I bought Mazdas (6 and CX-7) for $5500 under sticker in the Sept/Oct timeframe.
Just got my CPO 09 6i Touring, 2.5L, auto, 15K miles, white/black, Bose, Sunroof, keyless start, aluminum wheels, for $18,000+TTL. How was the deal?
My 2010 Mazda 6iGT is outstanding, as is my dealer in Tyler, TX.
The car: 2011 Mazda 6 s Touring (3.7 6 cyl engine) with sun roof and cloth seats. (Location of dealer - central New Jersey)
MSRP $27,795
I pay: $25,000 inclusive of 7 % sales tax, delivery charge, 4 year registration and documentation fees. This works out to a net price before taxes and charges of $22,698.
In addition, the dealer will add on a spoiler for $ 200 and if I trade in my 2002 toyota corolla with 185,000 miles on it they will deduct another $400.
Is this a good deal? They showed me an invoice which showed the car costing the dealer $26,250, but I don't know what kind of incentive or rebates the dealer received.
By way of background, we were practically set to buy a 2008 Mazda 6 3.0 6 cylinder car for $16,900 (exclusive of sales tax and other fees) from another dealer, until we learned that the 2008 cars have ford engines. THe new car dealer told us that the 6 cyl engines in the cars before 2009 had problems, but I don't know how true that is.
I'd appreciate any feedback. Thanks!
Regarding the "bad" engines, consider this: if he said the engines were fine, would be more or less inclined to buy the new one, or from this dealer? You get the new one if you want the size, features, warranty etc and are OK with the deal. The rest is sales propaganda.
'11 mazda 6i GT w/ Technology Pkg. (Red Mica)
Sticker: 29,800
Offering 26,795 (they are willing to find the color I want, which is why the deal is not better). 0% financing and free oil changes/loaner cars for life and 8 yr/ 100k powertrain.
Thoughts?
That is a good deal. Keep the red and get it cheaper!!
But I'm not too hung over about it since the price worked for my budget.
Anyways I can't get into specifics right now because I don't have the paperwork with me, but the total price of the car after a $2000 down payment was around $20,500.
The car is standard and I didn't really get anything extra as I wasn't really interested in what they were offering. Power driver seat and windows, bluetooth, aux input; pretty standard.
What do you guys think? Could I have done better? Did I get "screwed"? Any kind of input would be great.
Thanks!
Your mileage will be absolutely terrific while the luxury and quality just exudes.
Safest out there in any weather.
The a/c is absolutely the best, bar none.
Best of all, it will drive just like a new car for 10 years +.
Thank you all for your information.
Does anyone know when the body style will change?
Also a little concerned about fuel economy. How has your real world experience been. The ratings on the vehicle suggest it is at the bottom of its class (Accord, Camry, etc.), but it is also a little less expensive than what I am finding in the other cars. Can you let me how you have done with it. thanks.
So, the car you are looking at is still a great car but it is a little behind in mpg and tech and the styling is getting old. It hasn't sold all that well over the 5 years it's been out so you should be able to cut a very, very good deal on one. I have a Mazda6 that is now exactly 5 years old and I just had the first unexpected repair......a brake light bulb. Yes, that is the only repair that this car has needed in it's 83k miles. So if you're looking for a solid car for a very decent price it may be a good time for one.
I get 32 miles per gallon at interstate speeds and 26 mpg in town.
Approaching 30,000 miles.
Nothing has broken or even a hint of a defect.
Love it.
My only complaint would be the Michelin tires are noisy on our coarse Texas asphalt roads.
Quiet on the concrete Interstates.
This car is a really BIG car. Like a big Caddy or a Buick!!!
Trunk space is awesome.
Engine performance of the 2.4 is flawless, and it does have fast acceleration.
The paint color is candy apple red with metal flake in it,
The tan leather is supple.
The air conditioning in Texas heat is flawless and you can sit and wait idling in Park as my wife is in a store shopping and there is no de-gradation of temp!
Flawless super cold.
I use Mobil 1 oil, and never a drop used.
We will keep this car for another 3 years, at least.
Mazda will keep the 3,5, 7,9.
Mazda makes a superior car.
I just completed a 4500 mile trip in 3 weeks in my 2010 Mazda 6GTi(4cyl) and got 34 mpg overall!!!
And I drove FAST!!!!!
37,000 miles, and still like a tight new car! WOW !!!!!!!!

They have already announced that the 2014s (out very soon...Feb? Mar? of 2013) are going to be SkyActiv models, and get MPG in the high 30s.
Europe is going to have a Diesel SkyActiv, and it is possible the US may get them, too.
But if memory serves, the 6 will come with either a 2.0l Skyactiv engine that performs like the current 2.5l, but with better mpg, or a 2.5l SkyActiv that performs like a 6cyl, but with better mpg.
This can all be found/verified/corrected with Google searches.
Love my 2010 Mazda 6GTi and will drive it for a long, long time.
So a day after I backed off, the dealer from MD fitzmall email me offering for $16, 860 OTD. then it drove me crazy such a low offer. I haven't asked my local dealer to match it, but I am sure they would.
It's a huge savings, but undecided still. I would have loved go have more time to decide but there are only a few reds w black interior which is the only color I would buy.
What shocks me is that they have the 2014 out and at these price they still have a significant amount of 2013 leftovers in other colors. Not sure why more people don't buy them. I barely see them around here.
Also the last Mazda 6 that was built in the us was in August 24th 2012??? And they still have them.... go figure. They will build the new one from Japan. So if anyone is interested in the leftovers I would suggest doing it now and do as I did if u live close to MD Fitzmall and have your local dealer matching it.
They only assembled Mustangs and Mazda 6.
Wonderful to slide under it and look at all the smoothness, and ni-cad and chrome bolts.
That is why the wind co-efficiency is 0.31.
Just beautifully put together, and so easy access to change oil and filter!
perhaps if i was that good at stuff i wouldn't fear to buy the Mazda 6 as i could perhaps know what could be wrong.
I will see and let you all know. I figured i would post my experiece, so that others may benefit, specially if considering mazdas.
Also to confirm, they had a 2014 and were test driving it already as of wednesday, so i figure that they are getting more. Many dealers have at least 3-5 of them.
With the Mazda 6 florida plant, i read it in cars.com, but, may be they have something else, again, is a nice looking car even the 2013, specially in red, but i still don't know why not more would go for it.
i know the reliability, resale value and fuel economy play a big part, but i am sure with the extra heavy discounts they should come still cheaper.
One thing I've also noticed about Mazda is that you don't usually have any problem achieving the estimated MPG numbers. Not so with some other cars.
Since it was a test drive I didn't try many of the tech features, nor could I measure milage, obviously. The car didn't have a price sticker yet and wasn't for sale. Prices have now been posted online here and elsewhere.
No other car, even if built by angels, will be good enough for you, PERIOD.
Go by the ACCORD,,,,and bye,,,,
I have the 2009 mazda6 GTI bought in 2008. Zero problems to date. I am enjoying the fact that all of the maintenance parts so far are shared with Ford because that makes them cheap and readily available. Will the new mazda 6 have shared components like that or is mazda going back to pure japanese parts? Will the new mazda6 cost us more to maintain?
I would prefer to have the better handling, larger, more fun to drive car that gets better gas mileage (due to Skyactiv tech), but maybe that's just me.
