#38 of 361 Re: Prices I've been quoted for Mazda and Civic [samshy] by pete22 Sep 04, 2005 (10:01 pm)
Replying to: samshy (Sep 04, 2005 7:52 am) Yes your right about the Civic and ABS. also the same on the Mazda it's pretty expensive. I'm in Southern California so am willing to pass on the traction control and ABS. Also I don't care that much about the 5 disk CD. But still would go for the SES since I want the cruise control, leather steering wheel and 16 inch tires. Anyway so far didn't find anyone willing to nogioate from the Family price + rebate. In fact I get that price anyway because where I work gives me an x-plan price (i think thats whats it called) and was told that its the same as the f-plan price. Anyway been exchanging emails with an abnoxious Ford internet sales guy, went to the ford site found a car and emailed him to find out if he had a local discount above the Ford family and rebate. He emailed back and said he'll give me a special internet price and I can only get it if I see him. Then next email sends me an invoice with the same price the Ford web site gives you and says its his special deal and he's only around 3 days a week. When I mentioned I could get the same price by just walking in the door and seeing anyone, he emails back that he expected loyalty for all the work he did for me (an email giving me the Ford family price) and was outraged that I'd be so disloyal as to buy the car from someone elese there. Anyway I'm still waiting to see what happens with the Fplan after the 6th. I heard it's mostly will be extended. If not I wonder if they will increase the rebate, I which case I already get the X-plan so that would be to my advantage.

Replying to: samshy (Sep 04, 2005 1:49 pm) You're right about the Focus' interior material. I got to warn all of you before buying an '05 Focus -- the air coming out of the vents of my charcoal interior kept giving me (& everyone else) a nauseating plastic smell, & I had this '05 ST since Oct '04.   I don't lower the seat all the way, so my right elbow feels just right & relaxing resting on that high center armrest while shifting the stick.   Other than that, the Focus' elastic ride & responsive handling is like a dream, & the Civic/Corolla can't even come close.
#40 of 361 Question about buying a Zx4 sedan by likeitornot Nov 12, 2005 (12:51 am)
Sorry I didn't see any Zx4 forums or really anywhere to ask this..   I'm either buying a New Focus Sedan or a used. So far it seems like the new is only like 20-40 more than the used.   I was thinking instead, maybe go with a used LX which would be even cheaper. But I can't find too much online about the LX's. Are these the ones with themost problems and to stay away from? I guess it was anything before 2004 that's bad because of the recalls?   Or are focuses better in general new, less problems? I hear a lot of problems iwth these cars so I'm kind of worried. I really like the focus though so.. Replies to this message: kyfdx (Nov 12, 2005 4:51 am)

#42 of 361 Decent Offer or should I wait? by occupant1 Dec 09, 2005 (7:08 pm)
Five Star Ford here in North Richland Hills TX has told me that they are "having a sale" this weekend (yeah yeah) and all 2006 Focuses are $4000 off sticker. So I'm wondering, would that work? The cars I am looking at are various ZX4 S sedans, AC and auto, no other options, MSRP of $16020. So that's $12,020 plus tax/title/plates. The Simple Plan price accoring to Ford is $15,333 ($687 off sticker) less $1500 rebate for a final price of $13,833 and this dealer is $1813 under that? Am I in for a gimmick sales tactic or are others finding basic Focus sedans down around $12K?
#44 of 361 Good price or not? by thomas1234 Feb 03, 2006 (10:52 am)
This board is apparently in hibernation, but here goes:   06 Focus SE XZ4 with these two options: auto trans safety package (ABS & side airbags)   MSRP: 16725 Price: 15792 Rebate:-2000   Total: 13792 + TTL   Your thoughts? Replies to this message: lost (Feb 03, 2006 3:49 pm)

Replying to: thomas1234 (Feb 03, 2006 10:52 am) The best price on a Focus tend to drift between 3k and 4k off MSRP. While not a bad price you need to shop every Ford dealer around you to verify the best price.
#46 of 361 Just bought a red ZX4 SES with Automatic by duck68137 Feb 23, 2006 (2:23 pm)
I just bought a red ZX4 SES with Automatic. MSRP was $17,135. After 2500 rebate, 500 college rebate, 500 auto show rebate & 500 rebate when financed through FORD, final price was $12,239. Not a bad price for a car with all these features. Replies to this message: explorerx4 (Feb 23, 2006 5:43 pm)

Replying to: duck68137 (Feb 23, 2006 2:23 pm) sounds like you got a sweet deal. about 2 years ago, i bought a focus to keep mileage off our other cars. it is a much more enjoyable vehicle than i expected to get. the $500 college rebate would had to get extended way back to have me qualify.
