Though if you look around, you might find a dealer willing to go low right off the bat, depending on how badly they need business. Send out emails to local dealers, maybe you'll get one to bite.

It might look like that initially, but I'd rather go to a place where I pay a bit more than a place where they are cheap (ie. no commission for salesman says a lot) and don't take care of your car.

It is preferable to buy and service your car at the same place IMO. Dealers will (should) value loyalty. I've done this in the past and it has worked very well.[/QUOTE]

I have been dealing with Louisburg Ford for over 10 years when I ordered a new Probe from them. It is an excellent dealership with an excellent service department. It's run like a family business and besides that, any Ford establishment will honor the factory warranty, no problem. Why pay more when you don't have to? They take trade-ins, give factory rebates, and 0% financing when applicable. $50 over factory invoice for over 20 years (almost 25) is the way to go! http://www.LouisburgFord.com

I could see a commitment to $1000 off of MSRP with a decent refundable deposit working ok. You can add that they can hold the deposit untill the vehicle is sold, weather or not YOU actually purchase the vehicle to make it sound very serious. Just get it in writing signed by 2 managers.

Or you can go for MSRP but it includes free GAP insurance and a service contract(like a 3 year oil-change/tire rotation program), those two run a little over $1000 bucks typically.

you will always get a higher service priority if they are servicing a vehicle that was sold at that dealer.

Are you responding to a previous post? I'm not sure I understand! But since you are a salesman, I respect the comments you have given here on MustangSource.com. I'd like to give my salesman a good deal for a good deal in return. Can we both win, and thanks for explaining the quote.

Can anyone tell me if they have come up with a price on the 05. I know that it was mentioned that they wouldn't have a price until July but thought maybe someone had heard some new information. Was gonna order a week ago but my financial advisor, or as I like to call him my husband , said that I need to wait for a price. Starting to go a little crazy waiting.

Kevin,

What is the difference between "dealer invoices"? I've been told there is more than one "dealer invoice". Would $700.00 over dealer invoice be a good deal?

You will think this is crazy (since I have not been on this forum in a while) but I ran across this topic and thought it was an odd ... because my employer is in Chantilly. I visit the Dulles Business park all the time (over by the new Damons resturant). I go there all the time. When I am ready to look at an 05, I may drop by.
