"Thanks for the reply. I have to order the vehicle soon because we are moving back to the states."
 
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 Ford Taurus X EB South Florida by ebm

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.

So you can now get the moonroof and DVD system in the same vehicle? I believe on the Freestyle you could get one or the other, but not both. I better not let my wife hear about this lest she'll start campaigning for a new Taurus X with both.
 
We're very happy with our '05 AWD Freestyle SEL with DVD, but no moonroof.

You did okay on your trade.
 
Did you pay any extra fees (doc fee, etc...)?
 
If you did not pay any extra fees it looks like about $400 under invoice. If you did, the number would be less.
 
With that many rebates, one would think the price would have been much better!

This dealer does not charge any extra fees. Only item was to transfer tags and Florida Sales Tax.
 
Does anybody know of a good extended warranty company?

I must be a little slow today. Did you say that there is a dealer in Florida that would not move off the MSRP sticker price of a Taurus X?

I thought that was kind of weird. What also caught my attention is a dealer that does not charge a dealer fee! Every dealer in Florida in my experience, regardless of make, tacks on a Dealer Fee between $400-$700 (yes, $700!).

Maybe they made so much money on that deal, they felt obligated not to charge a fee.
 
With $2500 in rebates that should have been at least a $2000 below invoice deal with no extra fees.
