I've been in the market for a new vehicle for the past couple of months. Having said that, I've been reading all over the web trying to retain and research as much as I can. Which has allowed me to add and subtract makes and models leading me to my final selections: Acura TL, Hyundai Azera, Mercury Milan and Honda Accord V6. After many long, hard decision-making sessions I've decided on a Milan V6 Premier with all features except the heated seats and the Audiophile stereo addition. The 0% is a very sexy financing program. I have a few questions for all of you... I currently have a 2000 Mercury Cougar with 121000 miles. There are a few dings on the exterior and a few minor + blemishes on the interior. My plan is to get whatever I can get out of it via trade-in. Would you do the same? I have been the sole owner of this vehicle. According to the sticker, the MSRP is 25,575. What kind of final price should I be anticipating (post negotiation)? I have failed to locate a good site of people reporting on how much they have been paying. Lastly, is there anything else I should know before I go and test drive the car tomorrow morning? Thank you ahead of time and sorry for being so choppy.

I have compiled a price comparison chart for a Milan Premier V6. I have it loaded with every feature possible. The first set is the websites/dealers sticker MSRP. The second set is the dealer's cost minus holdback. How likely am I to buy this vehicle for the final price of the last set? Base MSRP: $22,845 Options: Premium AM/FM In-Dash 6-CD/MP3 & 6-Speakers - N/C Power Moonroof - $795 Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) - N/C Traction Assist - $95 Audiophile AM/FM In-Dash 6-CD/MP3 & 8-Speakers - $420 Heated Front Seats - $295 Safety & Security Package - $595 Comfort Package - $595 Colors: Exterior Color: Tungsten Grey Clearcoat Metallic - N/C Interior Color: Dark Charcoal - N/C Destination Charge: $650 Total MSRP*: $26,290 DEALER’S COST MINUS HOLDBACK Base MSRP: $20,095 Options: Premium AM/FM In-Dash 6-CD/MP3 & 6-Speakers - N/C Power Moonroof - $668 Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) - N/C Traction Assist - $80 Audiophile AM/FM In-Dash 6-CD/MP3 & 8-Speakers - $353 Heated Front Seats - $248 Safety & Security Package - $500 Comfort Package - $500 Colors: Exterior Color: Tungsten Grey Clearcoat Metallic - N/C Interior Color: Dark Charcoal - N/C Destination Charge: $650 Total MSRP*: $22,444 Should I go in armed with this info and tell them that I will take one if they can cut this deal for me? Again, how likely will it be to execute such a scenario? Again, thank you ahead of time.

Sent faxes and e-mails to 20 different dealers in my area. One quoted at $18,150 with automatic transmission, safety and security package, ABS, and SE Sport package. I wanted the 0% financing for 72 months. Quote went up to $19,150 because rebate isn't offered with financing. After NY State tax if figured I'd pay $274 a month. I let it go. I feel I let a good deal go. What other manufacturer besides Ford has offered 0% for 72 months? How often does it happen?

Replying to: otops (Aug 26, 2006 8:29 pm) If you live in an urban area with streets that may have potholes, uneven surfaces, bumps, etc., make sure you test drive Milan on that, not smooth highway, The car shakes and loses road grip on less than perfect road surfaces. |
