Larry,
I just got my classic red Pro5 today. If you are a good talker, you should be agle to talk them in to throwing them in with the car, but wait until you settle on a final price, then hit them up for the freebies. I did and it worked. I got the floor mats,cargo net, and a full tank of gas. Good luck.

I have just put on the rear bumper step plate and the cargo tray ( both to save the car from the dog ) I will take some pictures and post them as soon as I get a few cups of coffee in my system. the only problem I have with the step plate is that it is not black but the same shade of dark grey of the interior moldings. It still looks good but could look better. the rubber cargo tray is pretty good quality. It is a decent thickness and is form fit to all of the MP5's little nooks and crannies.

Yeah, Cars Direct doesn't always have dealers in your area who will work with them. You don't buy the car from Cars Direct, they just refer you to a dealer, and that below invoice price INCLUDES the current rebate in your area. I got about the same price as Cars Direct by working the deal myself.

I did a search on Ebay earlier today before I saw this thread, and a Mazda dealer is selling the rear cargo mat and the net (separately). Actually they had both the carpeted mat and the rubber mat. You might want to check there and compare the price with your dealer's price.
