What was your closing price?
I'm a numbers-oriented guy - I don't want to pine my hopes on an $8000 off MSRP if only a small minority gets it.
For starters, Edmunds estimates that people in my city pay this much for a base 6-speed '05 after destination & tax: True Market Value w/ dest. & tax: $27,387 MSRP w/ dest. & tax: $29,081 Invoice w/ dest. & tax: $26,928 I couldn't find another thread quite like this, so here's some ground rules: 1. Please post your final price, after tax, destination, title, and anything else you threw in there. Although this can seem like a difficult task to do in light of all the different prices you're quoted (MSRP, invoice, pre-tax price, etc..), there's ultimately only one figure that you're paying off or that you paid in cash, so just go with that one. 2. Here's a template: Final Price: Model Year: Model (AT/MT): Options: Date of purchase (month/year): Location (city/state): Financed/Cash purchase: Interest rate (if relevant): New/Used: Helpful additional information- MSRP: How you did it: Comments: EDIT: Added Interest Rate. |
Considering I've not bought mine (yet), here is all I know.
Several dealerships in the Chicagoland/Southern Wisconsin area are offering anywhere from 3-7k off, depending on where you go. This is with all applicable incentives. One, actually, offered 8,000 off, and 9,000 if you finance through MAC. That's not a bad deal for a 34k car. Others will be able to tell you more, I'm sure. |
State tax variance
State sales tax varies from 0 - 7%, plus many municipalities tack on their own tax; as a result wouldn't it be simpler to back the taxes out of the cost comparisons? I know I'm not eager to research everyone's tax sitution.

Final Price: 22.5k + tax (~2000)
Model Year: 2004 Model (AT/MT): MT Options: Grand Touring Date of purchase (month/year): 9/05 Location (city/state): Phoenix, AZ Financed/Cash purchase: financed through my bank New/Used: Used, 11.5k miles |

I paid ~$20K CASH for mine used '04(MT, GTP, Borla Exhaust, MS Flywheel, MS Sway bars, new Tires, Wilwood Brakes) with 40K miles in May'05. No way I would have paid more than this on a used car. Carlos |

Im looking for a new 05 manual rx8 with the sport and appearance package on it, what would you guys consider a good closing price (msrp: 29,500ish). Also i will be paying for about 12k in cash, do you think that would benefit or hurt me. I would think it would be bad because they will not be making the proffit from the interest therefore forcing them to keep the price a bit higher.
