Should I wait until January (or whenever the new 5's arrive) to buy a 2010 Mazda5?
I have pretty much ruled out purchasing a new 2012 based on the photos I have seen. I can't get over the new "waves" on the side and the new rear/front ends.
I am however ready to purchase a 2010. Should I take advantage of the 0% financing now and just buy one of the remaining 2010's or should I wait til the dealers have both models on the lot and use that as a bargaining chip to get a cheaper 2010?
From what I can tell the price point of the new model(s) is essentially the same. Seems like it will be tough to move the old ones when a consumer can get the latest one for the same price (assuming they like the new one better).
I also talked to 2 different sales managers about when to expect the new 2012 models. The first one said It would still be 6 - 7 months even thought the press release says January. The other admitted Mazda wasn't the best at hitting delivery deadlines, but he anticipated February. I am no that desperate to buy immediately, but the warranty on my current vehicle is expiring at the end of this year, so I am motivated to buy sooner then later.
I appreciate any feedback anyone may have.
Regards,
