Not that crazy, but Stoney Trail Mazda has started a sale.

SALES DEPARTMENT
Should you need to purchase a vehicle we offer a great selection of new and used vehicles. In order to reduce our inventory levels, all 2019 Mazda’s are being sold at cost, plus on all 2019 and 2020 new Mazda's get no payments and no interest for 90 days.

I hear this but never believe it

I highly doubt their cost for a CX-9 is 52,000

May be the have updated their website. It's $49K before tax according to unhaggle.

Selling at cost isn't enough as you can get cost plus a few hundred any time really. Corporate needs to provide incentives for true deals to start appearing. Like if Mazda Canada put 4-5K incentive on these on top of what dealer is willing to do.

Plus at cost means fuck all. It's just a way of putting a number in front of the customers. The dealer sells it 'at cost' but then gets kick backs from the manufacturer so they still profit anyways. It's just skewing the numbers to make the customer think its a good deal.

Ya i would think the corporate support will be trailing for a bit once they see how bad march and april sales are we could see some big incentives.

Yeah, it's the "Friends and Family" sales you want to wait for. Cause they don't just give any Joe Blow off the street those prices. Friends and family only! Very exclusive!

It’s a balancing act... trades will be worth less too, plus factories closing so inventories are going to become an issue, especially with getting the options you want

You might be right actually.. Blessing in disguise for dealers. All those extra "2019s" on the lot are really just current day models.

And really, 2020 clearance is like a month or 2 away anyway. 2019s need to be way below cost at this point being 1+ year older.

From what I'm hearing in the US, manufacturers are not charging interest on dealer inventory for 4 months, so it's essentially free to have that stock sitting around at this time. Because of this, no fire sales in the US. Not sure if that's happening in Canada. Friend just picked up a new AMG this week, MY2020 inventory vehicle, and doesn't seem like a fire sale at all. Just your typical spring discounts.

Dealerships are playing a risky game of... well factories are shut down so you as a consumer better take what you can get vs. people are losing their jobs and won't have money to buy vehicles

Porsche delivery in US is reported down 20% for Q1. And there is only like 2 weeks of lock down and not country wide. All other brands are down 5-15% range.

If sales is going to sucks for at least a quarter or 2, I'm sure they can pause factory to lower supply.

[austic]

With the latest reports saying the lockdown will last till May atlest I would think Q2 is going to be much worse.

Through good times and bad, all I know about dealerships is this:

Now that I think about it more, this might have a hindrance on getting a deal. Before, around this time we may see some incentives on 2019s still on the lot. We may still see the same to an extent but dealers won't be trying to move as much volume with rage2's reasoning. Damn.

[Aleks]

Not seeing any deals for April on websites. Ford deals got worse on the F150s. Pretty much same level of incentives as March elsewhere.

Biggest ones are No payments for up to 6 months on Finance such as with Toyota.

2012 Tundra Platinum, seems like a good deal? https://www.kijijiautos.ca/vip/14153191/ Been looking at Tundras/Sequoias for a while now.

My vehicle is still at the rail yard... it’s been at least a week

The market for used seems really slow, trying to find my next sports car and there’s not a lot out there for the time of year. Not surprised with the way things are right now.

I’ll sell you my S2K. I don’t have the garage space for 3 cars.
