I had done all my research and test driven the Mazda 6 I just needed a dealership that would give me the price I wanted. I was in touch with the various local dealers and had basically put my offer out there. The first one to take it, I'd buy that day.

I have to say, Madison Williams in Internet Sales was so responsive and eager to get me the deal I wanted. I told her I didn't want to drive all the way to Vancouver only to find out they wouldn't honor the deal we agreed to by email.

I sent photos and details of of my trade in and she worked with her sales manager to determine if they could accommodate my deal. She said they could.

I drove to Vancouver, and though there was some push back once they examined my trade-in, they ultimately honored the deal.

I drove away with a gorgeous 2015 Mazda 6 Touring. I am in love with it! I think Maddie was as excited as I was. I appreciated her enthusiasm and excitement for me.

Because Vancouver is a bit of a drive for Oregonians, I think the Alan Webb dealership is more willing to negotiate than the Portland-area dealers. You don't pay sales tax if you can prove you're an Oregon resident, so when you're ready to buy, ask for Maddie.
