2005 Invoice price?
 

I noticed from a previous post that the MSRP for the '05s went up about $200, as well as an additional $200 or so for the option packages. Does anyone know the invoice prices yet for the 2005s? This ~$400 increase should be reflected, correct? I'm about to place an order for an '05 and wanted to know what I was paying, since I was quoted relative to invoice.

See this thread: https://www.rx8club.com/purchasing-financing-insurance-56/2005-rx-8-pricing-released-38005/

Edit: Oops, I didn't read closely enough -- this thread is about invoice, not MSRP. Sorry about that.

I checked edmunds.com but they still don't have invoice prices for the 05's, but I would expect it before too long (probably within the next 30 days).

the invoice is listed on www.kbb.com

Awesome, it wasn't there a few days ago :D

Here are teh prices for the 6-speed:


INVOICE RETAIL
Coupe 4D (Manual) 24,844.00 26,875.00
Destination Charge 520.00 520.00

ACCESSORY PACKAGES
2RP Accent Pkg, Rotary 111.00 139.00
2AP Appearance Pkg 775.00 970.00
1GT Grand Touring Pkg 3,656.00 4,250.00
1SP Sport Pkg 1,118.00 1,300.00
1TR Touring Pkg 2,559.00 2,975.00

Are there any incentives for the '05?

Not yet!

2005 info
 

Hi,
I ordered a 2005 RX-8 on Saturday, due here week 3 September.

FYI: Do not let the dealers fool you, the 05's are ordered and at the docks. Every dealer I called tried to avoid the 2005's until I told them Mazda already told me most dealers were taking orders for 05's. (Which Mazda did tell me)

The best bet is to call Mazda at (800) 639-1000 and they will find you the car you are looking for. This is how I did it and they are great to work with.

The dealer showed me his incentive form. The only incentives (per the dealer) are $500 college grad (must be in last 2 years) and $1000 for some competitive program which I was not involved in.
The 0% interest is 24 month term only :(

As far as discounts, initially I was told to expect to pay MSRP.
I was able to get 1/2 of the total amount above invoice taken off.
I think this was around $1600, but I do not recall exactly.

I do not recall the MSRP off-hand, but it was just over 36k I believe.
Red/red-black leather/6 speed/Grand Touring/Nav/Appearance/Rotary accent/6 cd/Rear spoiler/spare tire kit

This was the only loaded RX-8 coming into my area in the initial batch, so I called the dealer and put it on hold... jumped in my car and went there and put down a deposit.. haha

I can post exact numbers once I get it if requested.

Since I will probably be ordering a 05 as well, yes, please post the specific numbers when you get the chance.

Where are you located?

Thanks.

I just ordered my '05 on Tuesday - the best I could manage with the dealer was about $400 over invoice for a total of $28,400 for a Touring 6-speed with accent package.

Initially they lied to me and said the '05s were not available til December, but I got a different salesman and he saw that I had my facts straight and didn't BS me.

^ How long to get your 05 from the order date?

I was told 4-6 weeks ... I suspect they'll just gank a car off a shipment that matches my specs instead of waiting for it to be built, which is fine with me.
