From what I'm reading it looks like I should be aiming at around $3.5k under MSRP, before taxes and fees. So you're right, "MSRP out the door" is leaving a little too much on the table.
Solid choice for a college car. I had a Mazda GLC in college. A three-door hatchback. It was a super stripper with one side mirror, no air conditioning, no carpeting (just vinyl covering the floor), and no radio! And a stick, of course.

My later Honda Accord EX hatchback felt like a Mercedes by comparison.

Mazdas have come along way since the early ‘80s.
