BUYER BEWARE! Today my husband and I went in to buy one of the two 2020 Mazda 6 Signature's they advertise as having on the lot. When we arrived we were greeting by a very nice salesman who was very helpful and transparent with us from the beginning. He informed us that both of these BRAND NEW cars were being driven as "demos" by the manager and finance manager. That was surprising, but that's okay, I guess. We asked specifically to look at the dark blue, and the salesman goes off to get it. We could hear him in the back of the sales floor looking for the manager to collect the key, okay a little different again, but we will roll with it. He pulls around the car that is visibly dirty on the outside, not impressive. When we go out to look at the car the salesman lets us know this BRAND NEW top of the line Mazda 6 has 4600 miles on it! On the website it clearly states the mileage is 4. The inside of the car has coffee stains on the dash, and a deep scratch on the passenger front quarter panel by the windshield. The salesman assures us those will be taken care of before we pick the car up. Simply put we tell him we did not come here to buy a used car, and a car with 4600 on it is in fact used. The manager comes over to tell us that it is "technically new" because a title has never been issued, and since he has been driving it there are several "upgrades" that will be included. There is absolutely no way they will come down on the price. Needless to say were were floored (no pun intended) at this response. The manager insisted the car was in fact new and would be detailed before we picked it up. Before we left we were offered a look at the second of these two cars (we can only guess that the finance manager made it into work so we got to see it) this car had over 100 miles on it. We went in looking to buy a new Signature model and left wondering how this dealership stays in business.
