How a weaker Yen means more Mazda savings for you!

The saying “strike while the iron is hot” means everything to someone looking for the right moment to act. At Don Mealey’s Sport Mazda, a new Mazda dealer in Orlando, we would like to turn that saying into “buy while the yen is low!” For the past 6 months, the Japanese Yen has declined 16% to the US dollar meaning exports to the US have become more profitable for Japanese automakers. Why would this matter to an auto shopper? Well, it just so happens to mean that US car shoppers looking for the best deal on a new Mazda are in the midst of the best savings they have been offered for the past few years!

With sales of the 2014 Mazda6 and 2014 Mazda CX-5 on the rise, Mazda is offering great new incentives for new car shoppers. Low monthly lease rates of these brand new 2014 models are both $219 a month for 36 months. Also, Mazda owners looking at upgrading their current vehicle can take part in the Mazda Owner Loyalty Bonus which gives an extra $500 to $1000 towards the purchase or lease of your next Mazda! Local Mazda dealers like Sport Mazda in Central Florida also are offering their own incentives on remaining 2012 and 2013. “Buy while the Yen is low” should be on the tip of every car buyers tongue when searching for their next new import!
