I did a quick search on cars.com and the most expensive one is the 2012Kona from that idiot dealership I went to last Friday.
Lol. Figures.
Still kinda pissed about that.

I know the pain of waiting. Found my Boss online in Jacksonville, worked the deal, waited on the bank, waited for it to get on a boat, waited for it to get to Germany. All good things come to those who wait! Now I'm waiting for the weather to get better so I can take her out of the garage.

It's not really a factory incentive per se. It's cash to dealers. Dealers out if state ( ca) pass that savings in to buyers. Dealers in SoCal are very very greedy and don't want to let their cars go without making a good amount of money on cars.
I wasted my entire weekend this past week trying to buy a Shelby under x-plan at both Tuttle click in orange county and Sunrise ford in Fontana. At Tuttle click I was on my last few signatures on the contract and I realized they were charging me 49k for a 12 Shelby with pp and recaros. We had agreed on 48 in writing. They also brought up the apr from 5.9 to 7.25. I spoke to the salesman and manager and they lied to my face saying I misunderstood them. It got so bad that my wife was out in the cold crying as I was arguin with the sales manager we wasted 2 evenings at that MFing stealership. Similar story at sunrise, We agreed in a price over the phone, I came in and they retracted the agreement. In the end I gave up and ordered the GT...

Wow, I have been very happy with the experience here in TX. I used to travel to CA a lot so I know where you are coming from, it is quite different there.

BTW, if you have good credit and can qualify, you can get 2.49% (1.99% sometimes) on any new car at Penfed.org. I use them all the time, fast and simple financing and great rates.

I hear that. Granted I won't close the deal until March, but if my experience so far is any indication, I will probably be going to Texas to get all my future Fords as well.

Hey bud, that story just boggles my mind!!! 
Its dealerships and salespeople like who you dealt with today, who make it toughter for people like Brian and myself to do out jobs and have people believe we are honest!! Why that salesperson wouldn't do a VINCENT program look up on the car is beyond me!! It takes 30 FREAKING SECONDS!!! 
He would have seen that the car was available on X-Plan and maybe, just maybe, that would have motivated the manager to get off his a$$ and sell a car that has been there for almost a YEAR!!!
Sorry, I get really really pi$$ed at dealerships who treat people like this!! I started when I was 20, and some customers didn't think I was old enough to sell cars. That didn't get me mad. I laughed and kept working. Today, I've been here 15 years this April, and I'm always in Ford's Employee Excellence program (past 5 years). Why some salespeople are as lazy as they are is just incomprehensible!! It really irks me to no end!!
Give me a call today. I want to go over a few things with you and give you some choices. I wanna help you get your car one way or another

Checked on a 12 GT500 in my area and called the dealer up about the car. Asked him if they take Xplan and he told me he will find out about it for me. A day later he called me back and said yes. Ford will accept the X plan on the 12 GT500's. Hopefully if a financial deal comes through next week I will have that Shelby. Oh and with the X plan it will take 4 grand off the sticker price so that is great!
