Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Ford Fusion Prices Paid and Buying Experience

You are in the Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum. Your Hosts are car_man & kyfdx
Are you sure you want to buy this car? You're already taking at least a $3,000 hit because it's last years model and you'll have to list the damage & repairs when you tradin this car. Repair paint and body filler is never as good as the original finish. Offer them $19,150 by phone or email and be prepared to walk away. The economy is slowing down and we will be in a recession in January and the industry knows this and the dealer knows that it's hard to sell "damaged goods". People pay a premium for a new vehicle because well- it's new and not wrecked, damaged or driven by someone else. As soon as the 2006's clear the lot Ford will be offering incentives on the 07's, but I understand they have a lot of '06s (mostly trucks) to get rid of. Good luck!

Replying to: kyfdx (Oct 05, 2005 3:36 pm) I am the proud owner of my first new Ford. I just purchased a 2007 Fusion SEL V-6 with sun roof, heated mirrors and seats, traction control, Audiophile stereo system, leather, etc.... I am not even sure what else there is on this thing. I keep finding new stuff I did not realize was on the car. Long story short, I paid $21,500 for the car here in Charlotte, NC. Sticker was $25,080. Very excited and happy so far.... Traded out of an 07 Camry, it sucked..... bad. Unfortunately, I took a hit on trade, but with the price of the Fusion (which ironically is about what I paid for the Camry) I made out ok. Wish me luck; I don't need another lemon......

Replying to: scape2 (Nov 28, 2006 6:56 pm) The Camry had a bad hesitation a random. This made driving it frustrating to say the least and at worst could cause an accident(and almost did). So far, I love the Fusion. As for the 0%, I did not manage that. You got a sweet deal there and although I paid less up front, on the back side I will have paid more. Your payment is probably lower as well. Enjoy your car! |

2006 SE ford fusion, 4 cylinder, 2.3 6 month put l3,000 miles. A private person, she told me there was an accident on the bumper and had it replaced, I could not see any obvious dent by exterior look. I checked Carfax, now, th accident has not been displayed yet. The engine is quite when idle, but kind of noisy when speeding up, when speed is stable, it is quiet again. Is it normal? How much is it worth? Thanks for your comments and advice. This Fusion is the AUTOMATIC SE (2.3L I4) model with the following upgrades: -leather -LARGE power moonroof -Anti Lock Brake System -Front and Side Airbags -Perimeter Alarm -premium aluminum wheels -premium sound with 6 CD/MP3 player -Safety/Security Package -SE Sport Package -Fog Lamps -power driver's side seat -dashboard computer/message center -60/40 rear split seat -2.5 years of (3 year/36,000K mile) WARRANTY left

Has anyone heard anything about 0% financing, or anything close to that coming up in the near future? I was in the local dealership today, and they said that the best they could do is 4.9. But then I would lose out on the $1000. rebate. I'm looking to buy a new Fusion within the next couple of months. Let me know, Thanks.
