Replying to: essienc (Oct 22, 2007 9:55 am)  But I also understand a healthy dose of skepticism is a good thing. It does help flesh out the numbers. I guess it is all how the questions are asked. And the responses to the answers. At least now everyone who reads this forum knows that you can get the invoice price from some Ford dealers off the Ford website. I thought the invoices were listed for all X's on the Ford website and everyone could view them...not. For those that have not purchased their X yet, good luck with your deal. I looked a just about every car in the X's class and felt the X was the car for me. Now that I have owned the X for 10 days, I still feel the same way

Wait, is destination charge supposed to be included or not for the "best deal" numbers? The $1400 below invoice for the Taurus X was before the $750 destination charge right? I assumed we were including the destination charge.

Replying to: francishsu (Oct 22, 2007 7:58 pm) Note Post #357: Using the Edmunds' numbers (base + aux + des)28,902 - $1,500 (rebate) + $100 (fee) = $27,502 which is very close to your final number. $1400 below invoice.

Replying to: seloo (Oct 23, 2007 3:53 am) I looked up the invoice on Edmunds with the options he got and the Total w/options and destination charge is 28,485 (26,703 + $566 aux climate + $257 reverse sensing + $209 heated seats + $750 destination) So he paid closer to $1000 below invoice?

| It's extremely unlikely that anyone is paying "below invoice" for a Taurus X. Any rebate from the manufacturer is a separate transaction and does not figure-in to what you are actually giving the dealership for their car. I think some are confusing purchase price with the "out-the-door" price,(i.e. after rebate). Anyone claiming to have paid "$1,400 below invoice" should clarify that they are figuring this in a very non-traditional way, and in a way that only end's up confusing most who read this thread. | |

Replying to: francishsu (Oct 23, 2007 6:46 am) I was looking at a Limited not the EB, agree it is closer to $1000 below invoice. |

Replying to: seloo (Oct 20, 2007 9:07 am) Post your best deal in terms of below invoice price: 07 Freestyle $4900 below invoice. 08 T-X $1000 below invoice. (Correction) Good Luck.

Replying to: passat_2002 (Oct 23, 2007 8:41 am) Ultimately I think people want to know most what they can expect to pay out the door compared to some standard price. And I would expect the '07 Freestyle price comparison to show thousands in savings compared to the '08 Taurus today. By your argument of ignoring factory incentives, this would not be obvious. And by the way.. the current best price is about $50-100 over what an X-plan purchaser would have gotten that for.
