Hey guys, another proud Mazda 3 owner on the way!

Just picked up a 2004 5 door Black Mica with 5 speed Manual, with ABS/SAB/SAC and Moonroof/6 Disc Package. Decided against the leather (no heat), and Xenons because they were not blue enough like the BMW's, etc so I'm gonna put in my own Xenon's

As for price, I got it for dealer net (yes I know someone at the dealer, my dad does high volume purchasing there they are a GMC/Pontiac/Mazda dealer) so this is what I got for a price in US Dollars:

MSRP- $19,105
Invoice- $17,766
Holdback- $348.30
College Rebate-$500
Total Discounts including rebate- $2,187.30
Final price before taxes, etc- $16,917.70
Since my trade is was worth $17,000 I'll be looking at with fees prob. $17,500 out the door.


There is not much holdback (2% of the BASE MSRP in Mazda's) so I was lucky to get such a good deal since I know the Sales Manager because holdback is basically what the dealer makes some cash on, not this time :wink:

I'll have pics this weekend when I take delivery!!

EDIT: Topic heading :twisted:

Thanks for the invoice and holdback numbers - I'm in a dispute with my dealer. Even if I did buy on Dec. 20, they didn't even offer me the 3.9% for 60 months that was shown on the web site if you took delivery by Jan 2.

Hey grooverider,

I just purchased the same vehicle, but in Velocity Red for my wife. I received just about the same deal. I was able to use my cousins s plan discount. This made the price $17,759.00 minus the $500.00 rebate. It was cool you got yours minus the holdback.

"It's all about who you know"

Have fun!
