Replying to: raezmom3 (Dec 01, 2007 6:07 am) A planned August delivery of a Taurus X should not be affected in any way by this. This is likely just a temporary hold on production until they work through some inventory that is already at (or on it's way to) dealerships. |

Replying to: passat_2002 (Dec 01, 2007 9:09 am) I haven't seen any attempt to advertise the Taurus X. It is never mentioned in newspaper ads of dealers, and I haven't seen any TV ads. It seems Ford has decided that crossover buyers should all be pushed into the Edge. The Flex is coming out next year, which will use the mechanics of the Taurus X with different sheet metal. The rebates for the Taurus X just increased to $2,000 (at least in the Northeast US) effective Dec. 1 to around Jan. 2. I just received quotes from 5 Ford dealerships in PA. over the net. It was amazing how close they were - the differences could be explained by the differences in invoice prices. They averaged about $500 over Edmund's invoice price before rebates. It appears some of the dealerships report their invoice price as including the regional advertising fees they are required to pay. That makes the dealer's "invoice price" a couple hundred dollars higher than what Edmunds says.

Replying to: raezmom3 (Dec 03, 2007 5:22 pm) Are you getting at least $2000 below invoice not MSRP, but the invoice price? |

Replying to: raezmom3 (Dec 03, 2007 5:22 pm) I would wait until you get back to the states. If you think about it, you are ordering an American car, which will then have to be shipped over on a ship, which you are then going to have to ship back on a ship. That is a lot of exposure to salt air, plus a lot of hassles. It is simpler just to get it when you arrive home.

Purchases Taurus X EB from Sunrise Florida Ford Dealership. Standard price $28,970 plus destination & delivery fees $750. Optional Equip: power moonroof, Aux climate control, Navigation sys, Power lift gate, Sirius Sat radio with 6 months, 18" 7 Spk chrome Wheel, Reverse Sensing sys, DVD family enter center total cost of options $6,260. Toal MSRP $35980.00 Dealer would not move on that price. However traded in 2002 Ford Experdiation EB with 112,000 miles in good not great condtion. Dealer started at $3,000. I said no deal happens until I get $7,000 for trade. Ended as follows $35,980 less $7,000 less two rebates from Ford $2.000 less another private reabate from AAA south Florida and Ford $500 net $26,480. $2,000 rebated from Ford was $1,000 plus additional $1,000 for not using Ford financing used local credit union instead. Only bad thing about deal Ford web site said Taurus X EB came with sync standard. As I found out latter Web site is wrong, only cars built after 10/01/07 will have it standard. So any one buying one off car dealers lot will be surprised when you have a phone button on your dash board and it does not work. Spoke to Ford consumer help and was told in nice way Tuff. |
