I couldn't find it if this had been answered before.

Since my car is a total loss, according to the insurance company, I want to get a new one. I'm sick of having to put in a million different zip codes to search through forddirect.com, but that's the only place I've found that will let me put in the exact options I want (except for a couple). Does anyone know of any other place to search the entire country for inventory? Can any sales person on here help me out? I have very specific requirements, and if I have to I'll just place another order. I also have an X-Plan PIN, and won't pay more than that (I'd like to pay less, of course). I really need to get one fast, since my rental car runs out in 25 days, which is why I want to search existing inventory first. But if I can find a good cheap car to drive for now, I might just wait and order an '07.

Can anyone help me out here? Thanks!

Here's what I'm looking for in an '06.

GT Premium
Windveil Blue
Medium Parchment interior
IUP w/ satin aluminum (not the dark)
Active Anti-theft
Seat-side airbags
5-spd manual
Spoiler Delete

18" rims would be nice, but not necessary. Of course, if there's an '05 Sonic Blue exactly like this somewhere with very low miles, I just might have to get that one. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]

Thanks for the help guys, it's really appreciated.

I'd recommend calling the salesman you bought your first car from. Give him/her your info and them do the leg work. That's what we did with my dad's Nissan. After two days of looking online, our local dealer found the car he wanted in Miami after searching for about 15 minutes. Good luck with your search.

I got excited for a sec but my Windveil is an automatic.

Did you ask your dealer to run a dealer locate? It only takes a couple minutes then you will know if there is one out there.

That spoiler delete is the deal breaker right there. I can't imagine any dealer ordering a car for their inventory with spoiler delete. I'd say, buy a clunker, drive it until your '07 comes in with the heated seats and other goodies!

Try Autotrader.com.

Many dealers list their inventory there.

Yeah, twehttam has found some great cars, and I might have to consider one of them. None have spoiler delete, but they do have everything else I want. Come to think of it, I happen to know where there is a car without a spoiler I could take the trunk off of. It'd have to be re-painted from Sonic Blue of course ..
