If the glare was terrible, but you can't get the shale interior for the car you want, an option is to get a dashboard mat, which can cut the glare, if this vehicle is the only one readily available.

Below invoice? by foona

Looking at buying 2006 SEL FWD.
 
1. Before incentives should I be able to get car for invoice price? Below invoice? Don't have any type of x-plan or such. Will work with internet rep at local dealerships.
 
2. ford main site says 0% for 5 yrs. But many sites show 0.9%... which is it?

Buying an '06 at invoice shouldn't be a problem. Your dealer can fill you in on the incentives that went into effect June 1.

X-plan is typically a few hundred dollars over invoice. You should be able to match that. You could probably get it AT invoice with a bit of patience.
 
If you run into a dealer who's ready to get rid of a particular vehicle, you might be able to get it BELOW invoice.
 
Unfortunately, that never happens for a particular vehicle that I want . . it's always for a model that doesn't have what I want included.

As passat and barnstormer said, buying at invoice shouldn't be a problem. Just tell them you want to pay invoice, ask for the invoice, not a copy of the invoice, they have "copies" that are not the invoice but look like them. If they don't want to do that threaten to go somewhere else. Remember they want to sell that vehicle just as bad as you want to buy it. They don't like cars sitting on the lot. For vehicles that are in high demand and there is low inventory you will not be able to do that, but there are not many vehicles like that.

I recently purchased a Ford Freestyle SEL FWD. The model had no charge leather, safety and conveinience package. MSRP was 28,705 which included a 875 discount for the leather. After nearly one month of haggling, we settled on 24890. But what made this deal even better was that I traded in a 1999 Expedition and got 10,000. This was no small feat since Expeditions are not in high demand. I hope my Freestyle gives me good service

Thanks for the replies.
 
I was able to obtain an x-plan pin from a friend. So that means $300 over invoice. My thinking is go with that and haggle on getting best money for trade in. Usually car buying is a 2 step process, haggle on new car price then haggle on trade in.
 
Does anyone know... with x-plan and say $300 over invoice will dealer make more vs no x-plan and $300 over invoice??? Wondering if there's any value in x-plan if I'm already a hard negotiator.

Seeing as how it is "year-end" pricing time, I would forgo the x-plan and just make an offer around the invoice price itself. The '07 Freestyle has been coming off the production line since May 1. The '06's are now "last year's" vehicle. Invoice should be doable.

Hello, I think we are gearing up to buy a freestyle but I don't understand completely the 0% offering. What does this quote mean,isn't this basically a fee for 0% ? Any help would be appreciated. By the way I found this on Fords Site for Freestyle!
 
"*0% for 60 months at $16.67 per month per $1,000 financed regardless of down payment. For all offers take new retail delivery from dealer stock by 07/31/06. See dealer for qualifications and complete details."
