About to buy a used Mazda 3 2010

Hi, I'm about to buy a used Mazda 3 2010 next weekend.
This will (hopefully) be my first car, and my first time dealing with a dealership.
I was hoping I can get some information on if I can get them come down on the price of the vehicle.

Information.

2010 Mazda 3
Automatic i Touring Sedan
Type: Used
Bodystyle: Sedan
Engine: 2.0-Liter 4-Cylinder 148HP
Transmission: Automatic
Drive: FWD
Fuel Type: Gasoline
Exterior Color: COPPER RED MICA
Interior Color: DUNE
Doors: 4
Seats: 5
Mileage: 40,977

The price on the dealer's website is $15,000 "Internet Special."
They posted the EXACT one on craigslist for $13899 which was posted almost two months ago.

I will be putting down $5,000.

Also, how much would it cost to get them to install satellite radio or maybe get them to throw it in for free?

Thank you for anybody that's willing to help me.

Depending on the dealer, some dealers are starting to no longer accept "barganing" or price drops because they are trying to already have their prices set as low as they can go.

That being said. There is usually ALWAYS room for negotiation... It may depend on the dealer but if the vehicle was posted cheaper on a different site, print it out (as long as it is still posted online) and tell them thats what you want it for!

Goodluck

You can get a NEW 2011 Mazda3 for around 15k. Talk to the internet sales manager.
