i learned the hard way thru the last couple of days something i think you should all know. Do not go to a dealer and talk to a regular salesman! most of them have not been told about the pre sale that mazda is doing or if they do they are trying to get you to do a sale with them when they shouldn't be.
ask to talk to the internet sales manager or whomever is the equivelant at that dealer. they are the only ones who definetly know what is going on and should be the only people you deal with when ordering. once i got thru to that person at the dealership i'm going with i had no problems. this was after di**ing around for three days with the regular guys who didn't even know about the pre-sale until i told them. talk to the internet sales people and you will save yourselves alot of hassle, some money and a few grey hairs!
could someone make this sticky for a couple of days so everyone gets a chance to read it who needs to?
