What is a reasonable price for a 2023 Mazda CX-30 G25 Astina?

I'm buying a new car, the dealer has quoted as follows, and I need to know if it's a reasonable price:

Mazda 2023 CX-30 G25 Astina (fwd): $43,310; private registration fees: $400; CTP: $433; premium number plate: $130; dealer delivery: $1700; stamp duty: $1314; window tint $100; bonnet protection: $186; head light protection: $157; floor mats: $225; cargo tray: $169;
That takes the total to $48,124 but there's a $2124 discount taking the total payable to $46,000

That actually sounds like a ripper deal to us. Getting any kind of a discount in 2023 when supply-chain problems that have created more demand than supply of many new cars is increasingly uncommon. The eye-watering cost is the dealer delivery charge which is generally higher than it's ever been and reflects that demand from buyers who will pay it to secure the car they want. Some dealers won't negotiate on this cost, others are more inclined to sharpen their pencil to get you over the line.

Also, many of the additional costs you've listed are government mandated and are not negotiable. Those include the stamp-duty and CTP fee as well as the registration charge. Add those to the base price and you wind up with $45,457, meaning you're getting the dealer delivery fee and all those extras for less than $600. That seems pretty darn good in 2023.
