on the 05 price guide...would xplan be the column that says "dealer price" or "dealer invoice w/ holdback" ?? thx

 

It's neither...it's some sort of formulated percentage above A-plan price. If you have a partner code, then you can go to fordpartner.com and put it in. After that, when you go to forddirect.com, a cookie will tell it that you're an xplan buyer and give you the xplan prices along with the MSRP.

 

steve19970 I have an x-plan pin number and will give this to my dealer when I buy. I do not have a partner code so that I can price my car out. I was given this pin from a friend at Ford. Can anyone provide me a partner code so I can antisepate my pricing?

 

A/D/Z Plan = dealer inv/ with holdback - 2%
X Plan = A/D/Z plan + 4%
there are places when this can change slightly

edit: basically, X Plan is usually right around the same price as dealer inv/ with holdback +- $150 or so

 

Grantsdale that's what confused me. I did the formula as described in a previous post. That put me about $500 above invoice which I believe to be to high. I would rather go into the site pick my options and print it. Take this to the dealer to price. That is why a code would be most helpful. A PM would work for me if possible.

 

No $500 above invoice is very possible. Let me quote my DORA.

GT Prem (T82)
Leather Buckets, Dark Charcoal (KW)
Body Code (140A)
Shaker 1000 (918)
Active Anti-Theft (227)
IUP (18G)
Wheel Locking Kit (17L)
Side Airbags (43A)
Upgraded Wheels (64D)
Total MSRP $28945
Total Dealer Inv w/ Holdback $26705
A/D/Z Plan $25574
X Plan $26747

If it was an auto, it would probably go to about 500 over invoice

 

It will never be 500 over invoice. In your case it's only $42 different. Adding the automatic will only make the difference $50 or so.

 

If you want to send me your exact specs, I will price it for you.

Will do. Thanks
