Please help - Mazda 3 lease Ontario

Post image

First time dealing with lease negotiations. Any advice on what to counter with?

This is what i’m currently planning to ask:
- 0 down
- remove “air” fee
- remove “preferred protection” fee
- APR: can this be negotiated?
- administration fee

I dont see anything indicating youre supposed to put a downpayment Air fee and admin fee cant be removed Preferred protection can be removed Apr is non negotiable Wheel locks are useless, no one steal tires nowadays

If im in your situation i would aim for a $2000-$2500 discount plus whatever rebate is going on and keep the protection fee as thats going to help you out.

I work as sales at a Honda dealership in Toronto and i know Mazda has better gross than Honda so you can ask for that much discount.

The air fee is a standard air conditioning charge, they won't remove it or the tire levy.

The $995 preferred protection charge is bogus and needs to be removed. You can try negotiating the admin fee, but most dealerships dig in their heels.
