Apparently no Mazda’s dealers run that way. I engaged at least 10 dealers and the one thing in common was they all insisted Mazda didn’t issue a VIN and create a vehicle accordingly when you order. Rather, your specs are cross searched with N/A delivery and regional distribution lists by individual dealers. I’d like to think that there is a cue controlled by Mazda NA based on ‘order’ date, not specifics of sale, but who knows.
I can see them playing games no doubt. But they’re foolish to do so. Sure, refund a deposit and cancel an agreed sale during the peak of your sales pricing? Like honestly, if I get any inkling that the dealer is selling my car out from under me, I’ll demand a refund on the deposit and make a deal elsewhere. I mean, maybe China invades Taiwan and the vehicle crunch gets worse. More than likely, competition returns to the market by q2 2023 and MSRP is again the start of negotiations.
Personally, I’ll be keeping my notifications on for new listings, just to keep things honest. But I had a good feeling about this place.
