How's $18.7k for M3 Sport Hatch auto?
I am looking at a Mazda3 Sport, automatic, hatchback 2015. Here's what the dealer sent me:
$20,790.00 MSRP
$ 1,000.00 (Mazda Customer Cash)
-$1,009.00 (Dealer Mazda Discount)
$18,781.00 Your Sale Price
TrueCar estimate for the car is 19,216. But since I hear that figure is inflated, I'm trying to figure out how to dicker with the dealer for a better price than what he emailed me. $18,340 is the lowest price paid for an M3 as reflected on TrueCar, which is about $340 less than what i've been quoted. And I still don't know if that's the price I should shoot for. Or should I go lower.
Thoughts anyone?
Here's the rest of the pricing:
$ 1,328.60 Sales Tax
$ 199.00 Doc Fee
$ 199.00 Protection Plus
$ 120.00 Reg Fee (we will refund difference if it costs less to register)
$ 24.00 Temporary Plate (if needed)
$ 20.00 Title Prep Fee
$20,671.60 Your Bottom Line
I think the Protection Plus fee is for etching. And, of course, there's the doc fee. I hate to pay for these things. Can I negotiate them down?
If they won't negotiate on those things, I thought I'd try to get em to sell me a few extras at their dealer cost, but I can't find dealer cost for things like all-weather floor mats on the 'net. Can anyone help w that?
Thanks!
