Yes it's true.

Currently you can now get X-plan on the 08 SGT, 1K rebate, and 3.9% (36 mos) financing.

If you are in the military there is also $1K discount, but it can't be used inconjunction with the X-Plan, but it can be used with the $1k rebate for $2K off the price of a SGT.

 

I have to be a moron and ask what an X-plan is. I've bought 4 new Mustangs in the last five years and I've never been offered an X-plan.

 

Friends and family discount for ford employees. You can get one a bunch of differnt ways: owning ford stock, being a distributer of ford products, asking on the ford web site, knowing a ford employee....etc

 

How do you get one by owning Ford stock?

 

You can also check where you work, some companies offer x-plan to their employee's.

 

Ask a ford employee.

 

Oh, well, then it's not even worth mentioning it to the general public.

 

I saved $2200 on my 05 Mustang GT and $1800 on my Daughters Fusion. Mine was through my workplace and she got hers from her uncle a retired Ford employee. Dealers still have incentives to sell on all these plans so yes it's worth mentioning on here. Plus you get all rebates too! Its a great deal and everyone should do a little research into how they can aquire one for themselves.

 

Yes that's the easiest, but I'm curious what route a stockholder would take to get a PIN

 

Thanks for that information AFBLUE. This might be what I have been waiting for. Will my dealer know the 08' Shelby GT is included? Is there a program number that I can give them similar to what I have seen in the past about other incentives.

 

I'm the "general public' and I got an X-plan pin. Anyone can get one. I got mine through joining Experimental Aircraft Association-EAA (after 1 year membership you are eligible), also many just ask for a X-plan pin on blueoval.com and get them that way, or you can just do the stock thing.

Not sure. I asked my dealer about it and he was able to bring it up automatically. Just remember that a dealer doesn't have to accept X-plan on an SGT. They can decline to sell it at X-plan.

I didn't use X-plan on mine because it was a better deal for both me and the dealer if we used the current $1K rebate and $1K military discount, combined with his above invoice/below MSRP offer. But being X-plan eligible may have helped me get to that deal.

 

Dearlers don't have to accept any of the plans (A,X,or Z). It's their option.

 

When I looked on Fords website, it only showed incentives for cars on the lot. I will call a few dealers soon, and see if they will go for it. If I can get the $1,000.00 cash back ,that will make up for that dumb gas guzler tax. That tax is what has stopped me from getting one already. Its just the principal of it.
I wonder if any dealer can order one? I want an automatic, so maybe I will have a little more bargining power as most want manuals. The 07' year,I think a dealers second car had to be an automatic, before he could order a third.

 

I have x-plan though Raytheon (my employer) and tracked down the following info from http://www.fordpartner.com:

Bottom Line - No 2008 Shelby qualifies.

Additionally, it's up to the individual dealers to decide whether or not to honor x-plan in any regard.

AFBLUE, where did you hear that the 08' Shelby GT qualifies for the Xplan price. How can I prove to the dealer it does?

 

I own ford stock, you simply write investor relations and give them your account information and request a pin. Employees get A plan a really good deal, and if you own stock you get X plan, which is a good deal too,

I don't know what to tell you guys. I just talked to my dealer, Michael Morris at Wayne Morris Ford (Perry, GA) today and he said he looked it up and it still shows X-plan available on the 2008s. Think it came available 2 Nov.

Here's the thread on stangsunleashed where another dealer (shelbydude) confirmed for me that this was true.

Like was said before, dealers don't have to honor the X-plan, they can decline to sell at that price.

 

My dealer said the 08' Shelby GT does not qualify for x-plan. Looks like I keep asking. Thanks

 

I bought 10 shares on sharebuilder. No commision. then applied for my pin number.Great investment, saved over $ 3000.00 on price of new mustang.
