I thought with S-plan the dealer could still charge their doc fee?Wow. I guess, I have to consider myself lucky. I got invoice price and no doc fees (s-plan). Tax in Virgina is 3% and tags transfer less than $30. That's it.
They told me that they don't change doc fee with S-plan. This Duncan Mazda in Blacksburg.I thought with S-plan the dealer could still charge their doc fee?
Pretty mad. What's even worse is I bought my Mazdaspeed6 from them back in '07. Same dealer - apparently earning return business is not important to them. Honestly, I should have walked when they refused to come off MSRP. They told me if I wanted money off I'd have to go with a '13. I told them I KNOW that people are getting them for invoice+TT&L, and sometimes much better than that...they basically called me a liar. I eventually got them down ALMOST to where I was hoping to get, but the finance deal was the deal breaker. Such BS. My wife was really just angry that they wasted our Saturday afternoon.

Yup, that was my car. You must have come early in the morning since I left the dealer shortly after 11am.I think you bought my car! I stopped in there on Saturday to test-drive the sky-blue 2014 GT they showed on their inventory. While it was still in on the parking lot, I was told it had already been sold and was waiting to be picked up.
Hopefully I can get at least an equivalent deal when they get some more in stock.
I would consider that an incredible deal. Tax is usually around $1200 to $1500 or more. Then *all* fees plus title. The CX-5 price would have to be a few hundred below invoice to end up with this total.

I posted a negative review on dealerater.com & the sales guy emails me to remove it.It seems to be the same for everyone, this kind of thing happened to me too. Unless you have a quote from another bank, walking in empty handed will always get you screwed on a loan rate.
Want to see something magical? Go back with a quote from your bank, watch them immediately match the rate. Use your bank anyway, screw those guys. Then give the dealer a bad review for making you go the extra mile for no reason. Mazda NA does not like to see things like that so someone will get their ass chewed.
