Oh I understand. I certainly don't want you to get fired for that.

I'm looking into getting a 2012 V6 Premium in the coming months and one of the dealers I've been in touch with has provided me with the following quote --
$28000.00 + lic, admin, HST ->
$32389.52 “on the road”, plus plates only -- for the following configuration -

Stick shift 6-speed transmission
Leather heated seats
Safety and Security pkg
Interior upgrade Pkg
Shaker 500 stereo
Satin black tape stripe
3.7 L V6 engine

Does that sound like a good deal? When I was pricing out the 2011 V6 with the same configuration the total came to about $31,600 with the $4,000 Delivery Allowance applied.

Sorry for the noob questions but what is X-plan exactly? I've seen it in a bunch of posts all over forum. Also, are there any special guidelines to qualify for the Costco $1000 rebate except just having a membership?

Costco rebate isn't offered on 2012's yet. For the 2011's, car had to be ordered or delivered during rebate period.

You have had to have been a Costco member for at least (IIRC) 60 days.

ie, you just can't run out and spend $50 on a Costco memebership and get $1000 off.

That sounds like a horrible deal! When I bought my 2011 gt about 3 months ago it was 43,000 and after the employee pricing I got it for 33,000 with everything but brembos and glass roof!! So I wouldn't pay 31,600 for the lesser v6 model! Find a different dealer I had to go out of province to get mine....

Not available on the 2012s, you won't get a dealer here to give you one for that; employee pricing is "APlan" (what I get as an employee) and Ford cuts the dealer a cheque. A dealer giving APlan pricing on a new model car would make no money.

When I ordered mine the employee pricing was in effect. By the time it was delivered the interest rate had gone down and I believe X-Plan (??) was in effect. Although the base price was slightly higher the discounts were more, I got $1000 from Costco so I changed to the new plan as compared to when I ordered and it cost less all round including my payments.

It would seem that the "deals" are constantly changing.

Ya the deals are always changing and if you must have a 2012 instead of a 2011 (which I don't know why you would) I would wait a few months to get it and shop around don't just get it from your local dealer...I waited a few months on my 2011 gt and instead of paying 43,000 I got it 10,000 less!! Which is huge! They will do something similar once the 2012 models have been out a few months!!

1) Right now you're stuck with whatever inventory is on the lots
2) Reverse sensing system
3) Homelink

If this doesn't matter to you AND you can find what you want on a lot, don't wait.

But chances are the longer you wait the more chance you'll miss out on summer driving. I get A-Plan pricing all year around anyways, right now there's $3000 off.

What I really wish is that they'd price straight up at par since the dollar is there and will be for a while.

That would make far too much sense and like everything else we will pay a higher premium for the same items from the south - got to fund the socialist policies somehow.

Unfortunately the price gouge comes straight from Ford, it's what the market will bear. You can thank the pay scale starting at $10 an hour for slinging burgers.

Not that I'm complaining. Just reality.

Here in vancouver i listen to "Driving with Zack Spencer"

he has talked about a service called "Best Price Express"

i looked it up and did call them...basically for $195 they guarentee they will get your car in cdn for lowest price

might be worth a try? that or wait till employee discount thing...but thats not normally till late july

ps: is winter over yet,my vert misses me.

Doesn't work for me, I get employee pricing 365 days a year, lol.

Unfortunately, for me anyways, here in Canada I get A-Plan PLUS incentives where if I buy in the US I can only get A-Plan ... so by the time I import it wouldn't make much of a difference for me.
