You have a much higher opportunity to negotiate lower than X-plan if you're buying off the lot. If you're ordering, like I am, X-plan minus the available rebates, is pretty good. The dealer has to make a little money off you or they wouldn't bother taking your special order.

Xplan is the way to go unless Like Laserred38 said if it on the lot the prices are very low right now. I just bought a new 2014 GT Premium and the Xplan is .5% below dealer cost and they can charge more than $125.00 in fees. It the best deal.. Plus all the rebates you can get anywhere from 5K to 8K off right now..

If you want to know exactly what the Differences are from the 2013 to 2014 look at the sales Guide it tells what changed from the previous year. I am sure some one here has a link for that.

Good Luck look all over for one you want.

Yeah, it's not tons, but when I ordered mine in Dec, I think it was $100 or $125 below invoice...probably could have gotten it a little lower if I wanted to haggle more but they are great guys and plan on buying more from them in the future and they always end up doing better on my trade than the local dealer, by far. Some people have gotten even better than that when ordering. Plus, they still make money with the dealer holdback, the kickbacks they get from finding the financing for buyers and even more if people buy those "extra's" they push during the paper signing....most of that stuff is pure profit.

I hear ya. I'm sure I could've gotten a better deal, but I just didn't want to deal with that game. I'm happy to give Brian my business, and not have to worry about fighting for a few hundred $ to spoil my buying experience...

$7000-$9000 under MSRP after rebates is typical around here.

Never seen one for that much off, even with rebates, about 5K maybe. Where is that at?

Mine was $6350 off msrp! I think the deal is out there. Just has to be the right time and the right dealership.

Bigger dealership will have enough volume to be able to work with you on the price, especially if the time is right (end of month, new car rolling out! etc.)

Causeway Ford in NJ. Best buying experience I've ever had. Negotiated the deal over the phone. Once I confirmed the price over phone. I drove down there and negotiated the trade. Went home in the new car.

They've got a GHIG in stock if anyone is interested!

Not sure this has been discussed specifically.... when the halo lights on the 2013 were activated for the cluster they would project brightly on the windshield at night. On my 2014 they do not and look like little individual lights when you look at them instead of a beam of light all the way around the clusters on the 2013.

Am i crazy?

Well, 6350 off is in the realm of possibility then but that's still not 7K to 9K.

For that much off sticker I might trade and lower my payment!

Mine was over 4K off sticker so another 3K to 5K would almost make trading worth it.

Do an inventory search. I bought mine at Koons back in September.

Just wait a few more months when they "really" want to move the cars.

I'd be wary of any "great" price at any of the Koon's dealerships. Last time I was looking at one of these, found out it was a demo that had almost 9000 miles on it so the "great" price was for a "used" new car.

Nope, the reflection I get on the windshield on my '14 is that of little LED dots as well.

I got $6900 off for a special order with no hassle. Dealer's first price quote right off the bat was invoice (emailed me the invoice to show me) and then rebates and $750 coupon. On top of that I got high KBB blue book trade for my trade so I did pretty good considering it was a true no hassle, no BS deal. Apple Ford Shakopee in MN.

I bought mine at Koons, no games whatsoever. The prices now however are better than they were in September when I bought mine.

You gotta look at the fine print with dealers in Virginia and Maryland. They usually advertise the great deals minus freight and doc fee, which typically adds $1000 to $1300 to the price. Still great deals. But I found several dealers in Texas to be lower across their inventory. Last year I got quoted $28666 with for a '13 301a/Auto/Brembo with a sticker of $35130 w/$4000 in total rebates. That was a dealer in Maryland. If I remember it put the car right at $500 under invoice. Looked good, but the salesman's delay in getting me pics made me broaden the search. That's when I found a dealer south of Dallas selling the same car, but with Recaros for about $250 more. Sticker was $36775, got it for $28,9xx with the same $4k in rebates. About $1700 under invoice.
