Hey MyRxBad, how did you get a "good" price on your 8? I know a dealer downtown in Toronto that is taking $500 off the purchase of any new vehicle, including the 8 with a coupon (believe THAT). No other dealer in town (Toronto) would even budge a dollar on the MSRP.

I'm currently trying to get my deposit back from a dealer in Richmond Hill. In order to get me to sign, the salesman assured me that the deposit was fully refundable. I just hope I don't lay down another deposit for an 8, to screw myself over :o

I tried to convince the dealer in Richmond Hill that I was able to get this deal, but doesn't believe. I even faxed him the coupon. Of course you can't really blame the guy, I'm sure he just wants to maximize his commission, but I'd put that extra $500 towards a spoiler

I spoke with Mazda Canada.

The RX-8 qualifies for the XBOX. The rule is that the car must be bought and received between december 3 and january 4.

I get delivery of my car in may so that I do not qualify.

Pity.

That's crazy. How can anyone order and get an RX8 in under 31 days to qualify for this deal in december? Why don't they just say this offer only applies to people born on even number days of year in a month that has no more than 5 letters, has a glass eye, 1 wooden leg and a maximum of 9 fingers. IMPOSSIBLE.

Maybe if i got an xbox with the car, I wouldn't be so bitter that i'm not getting any breaks on the price.

Nice! I order my car the first week of March, get it September 27th and have received no gift from Mazda. I was supposed to get the book, but with the HP change, I don't think I'm getting it anymore. My dealer mentioned something about some special pen. I have to call Mazda Customer Service and inquire again.

Crackerjax - I bought my car from Mountain Mazda in Hamilton and that's where MyRxBad ordered his from as well. No promises, but give Peter Pickering a call at Mountain Mazda. He is the GM there and the phone number is 1-800-663-8671. He is a great guy and may work out a deal for you. My experience there has been great and I highly receommend him and his dealership. Good luck.

the mazda pdf document says applicable from december 2nd to january 5th. i guess that means you have to buy a car between those dates.

Burlington Mazda told me that since I will get delivery in May I do not qualify for a free XBOX but they will sell me one at cost, about $ 150.

It seems likke a good deal. price at Walmart is $257.

My best friend just bought a Mazda3 but the dealer refused to give him the XBox even though his car was purchased and delivered with the specified period. Their arguement is that he bought through a car broker so therefore it was discounted and therefore he is not eligible for the gift. Bull!

He called Mazda Canada and even they said he should be getting the XBox. He talked to the sales manager of the dealer again but again was refused rudely. He is going to have Mazda Canada to call the dealer to straighten it out.

Is there any other way I can help my buddy to get his XBox ? If you have any suggestions, or contacts at Mazda Canada they you know please let me know. Thanks a lot guys.

Spoke to MC today. The book was cancelled due to the wrong hp but instead they are now sending out a pen set !!!!

I haven't yet received my $500 cheque from them either even though I took delivery on Oct 30th.

No mention of an Xbox.

Any other responses as yet. What did they tell you Redshift?
