"
The car was previously titled as I found out, to the dealer who told me today that if some one who doesn't physically work at the dealership drives the car as a demo they have to title it in WI and that FORD is aware of this and that's why they tell me I am the first owner. CARFAX says otherwise andthat is not what they told me prior to me flying out there to pick the car up. They said "It's a new car although a demo and has NEVER BEEN TITLED"

 
I suspect a family member of the dealer drove the car and as such it was previously titled. My question is when you were doing business, signing papers, & buying the car, did not the dealer show you a WI title in the name of the original buyer and that buyer's signature releasing the title to you? Somewhere in the process you were duty bound to recognize such a document.
 
Were there "Dealer" plates or "Owner" plates on the car? If "Dealer" = deception!

Duty bound? On a new car purchase from a dealer? The dealer did not show me a WI title nor tell me the car was previously registered. Just the opposite.
 
The car was registered to the dealer as I found out on the registration receipt that was in the glove box. There was no buyer's signature releasing it to me. Carfax show the car to be a corporate lease for a period of 12 days. I'm guessing some went on a cross country trip or something like that.
 
And just to be clear.....DEALER DECEPTION regardless in light of the warranty start date at the very least on a new demo 07.

Sound like a deal? I was trying for $25,500 out the door. They let us walk but I told them several times I was not set on the mustang and wanted to try out the G8 GT before finalizing any offers.

Actually, this should be a pretty easy case because the fraud is so clear. The proof is that the dealer defrauded Ford (in declaring it new) in order to get you the zero financing. It logically follows that the same is true as to you.
 
You made a very reasonable demand relative to the warranty and it was rejected. Your only recourse now is to scream "fraud" as loud as you can. While it's not likely that the factory warranty will be extended, it seems to me that the dealer should, at a minimum, pay for all of the EW.

Need advice...should I buy now or wait? by xfilerguy

I have the chance this weekend to buy a new 08 V6 mustang for $13,500. I know this is a really good price, but i'm apprehensive to pull the plug for several reasons. First, I'm worried about gas mileage and the RWD Mustang V6 doesn't get that great mileage from what I've read. Second, I'm concerned that the price is going to go down further, as the economy is in the tank. Should I wait until closer to Fiscal year End or July 4 weekend? What are the chances Ford would smack a bigger rebate on these puppies? I've always wanted a Mustang, but lately i've been investigating a 4 cyl Altima Coupe to get better gas mileage.
 
What does everyone think? Is it even worth getting a V6 mustang or is the GT that much better of a car?

Well despite the economy and the price of gas, I just bought an 07 V8 a couple weeks ago. I did so with getting a hefty incentive of zero percent financing for 72 months.
I would not have ever considered v6.

You need to contact the consumer advocate at local television stations.
 
A shady car dealer is just they type of story they love to do.
 
NO dealer can handle stand bad press in this market place.
 
You need to look at your paper work for things that indicate that the dealer sold you a new car. If the dealer completed new car paper work instead of used car paper work, this is fraud and you can get a lawyer involved or the state consumer protection dept

2008 Bullitt Mustang - Love it! by mcqueen32759

My name is McQueen . . . Jeff McQueen and I live in Detroit. When I met Ford CEO, Alan Mulally last April and he saw my last name on my business card, he informed me Ford would launch the 2008 Bullitt in the Fall of 2007, and suggested I get one.
 
My Bullitt arrived in February 2008 and I've been having a blast. I quickly learned how to drive a manual transmission, and I've had it up to 140 MPH on one of the local hignways.
 
I also find people looking at my car when I park it in a public place.
 
I foten play Sheryl Crow's "Steve McQueen: song when crusing on Woodward Avenue. I plan on entering it in this year's Woodward Cruise.
 
I also have the MCQUEEN license plate for the State of Michigan on the car. How cool is that?
 
Best Regards,
 
Jeff McQueen
