So How much did you pay for your MS3?

[~JoJo~]

I am looking into getting my true red speed3 and would like some background on how much I am looking at.

Please help me with the following:

sport/GT/color

1. Buy/Lease
2. Amount Total
3. how much down payment
4. APR%
5. Payment/month

For example, the msrp on the sport is 22875, you kicked it down to 22500 OTD, 10,000 down payment, 7% apr, and monthly payment is $320 (just an example)

Black Mica MazdaSpeed3 GT

1. Buy
2. $25,763 ($23,772 + 8.375% NY sales tax)
3. $15,763
4. 5.95% through Capital One
5. $302 / month (36 month loan)

meh... more than I wanted to pay but had to drop my pants and bend over because of the NY tax.

I was doing some searching around and see that there are no good finance program available through mazda. I would have to go find one in my local banks. I guess since my wife works for the city, the credit union is the way to go, unless I pay the whole damn thing off.

anybody else? I want to get more stats..

If you have the luxury of using a CU then that's your best bet. Otherwise get a quote from lendingtree eloan and take it to the dealer and give them the chance to beat the rate. Most dealers get their loans wholesale and will give you a much better rate if you finance through them then if you just show up at the local Bank of America or whatever.

[~JoJo~]

so if I want to pay under $300/month for 4years, how much down do I need? If I can't do it for under $300, I might as well just pay the whole thing off...
