We were checking out all these SUV including RX, MDX, Highlander, Outlook, etc. We thought the Highlander gets us the best value and features. So, we were planning to buy the brand new design 2008 Highlander.

I was flipping through the Motor Trend magazine in my dentist office and stumbbled on the SUV of the year article. I was really surpise that Mazda CX-9 won. So I did lots of research on the web. My wife and I then went and test drove a few SUVs, including the Highlander and CX-9. We conclude that MT is right. CX-9 is a great car.

We just got my brand new 2008 CX-9 last night. Love it, Love it, Love it! We got the basic Sport AWD with moonroof and back up mirror. MSRP is almost $35k, but I got an incredible deal. I can't tell you how little I paid. But let me just say it is under invoice for sure. (You read right: under invoice price! NOT MSRP)
And I also got 0% finance!

My secret: I have a good friend who works at a sales manager in Mazda dealership. He is a great honest guy and Mazda is having a fire sale. So usually at the end of the year, he can do a lot of magic to get the car and price you want. Anyway, if you are looking for a Mazda (be it a CX-9 or anything else) in San Francisco Bay Area, email me. I can send you my friend's contact. Happy Holidays and Happy Shopping!!!
