I priced a 6 spd. RX-8 with the GT pkg. at a dealership in NY around mid august and they had a $4500 markup. A week later I went to St. Louis and bought the same car for sticker. I suppose these cars are going for a premium on the coasts, but the demand isn't high in the midwest, everyone wants their H2s and Hemi Rams.

I got my 6 speed RX-8 with GT package RED with RED/BLACK interior in Fresno for EXaCTLY MSRP $31,100. The dealer wouldn't budge and I didn't feel like the trouble. I had a bad experience in Modesto because they didn't want to come down to 31,000 for the same car. They had this wonderful thing there at Modesto called a 2800 dollar "markup"...

I work at John Thornton Chevrolet Mazda Isuzu near Atlanta Ga. We are parting ways with our Mazda dealership and getting rid of all our Mazda's for whatever we can get for them. Basically anything at or above invoice, maybe better than that, I don't know. Contact me by email at mitchellk@mindspring.com or at (770)941-8560 ext 4813

well actually its not mine its my dad's (im 16) but i went with when he bought the shit. i live in las vegas and at all the mazda dealers they start at like 26,700 with nothing on it at all. bone stock. the most tricked out with everything including a 2,000 navigation system is $35,000. the one i bought had evrything but the naviGATION (dont need it) and it costed me 29,500. with my ford discount (s-plan) but i got it down this much because i was about to leave the dealership because this stupid ass salesman didn't have a clue to what he was talking about, but then it all worked out in the end......

I bought my RX8 M/T GT with every option less Nav. I saved $1800 off sticker by going in during a snow storm and the ice was so thick you couldn't get in the car. I also shopped for 6 months.

I don't understand. You are limited in RPM and 210hp. Does the torque change things much? Don't get me wrong, LOVE the car!

I got a Titanium Silver with the GT package, spare tire kit, spoiler, splash guards, 6 In-dash cd changer for 29000. That's $2500 less than what they were asking... I live in CT. and I shopped for only a week, but went to virtually all the dealerships to get this deal.

I'm hoping to put 14G or 15G down. I'll see what's open to me with that.

Nice... you'll have really low payments, assuming your interest rate is around 4.9.

I traded in my G35 for the Mazda so that I could lower my payments... I was paying $540 a month for my G35... and it was an automatic so I wanted something sportier. Because of the trade, I ended up paying only $100 for state taxes... I'm picking my RX-8 today...

go to this web site. It has calculators for your loan. I suggest if you put a lot down go with as high a payment as you can so you can pay off sooner.

32000 Euros is roughly 39000 USD... that's a bit pricey over there, don't you think?
I paid 30000 USD, including tax, reg and dealer bs, and the only options I didn't get were the navigation system and the appearance package, which I'll probably buy an air dam soon... I got the GT package plus a bunch of other accessories...

Yeah that's true, but don't forget that three years ago 32000 Euros was roughly $26000 USD. The car prices are relatively "fixed", and don't fluxuate much with exchange rates.
Having said that I should add that cars are generally more expensive here than in North America. Even European models.

(Full insurance was $790/8 months,I'll be storing it in the winter.)

I hope that helps.
