They didn't give me the best price initally.Their dealer delivery is about $1250 accross the board I believe, however some dealerships will do it for $500.If you are eligable for the staff discount, you can basically shut them down and all they make is their dealer delivery. It's about the same with a fleet discount.Ford are releasing a 'bonus rebate' type thing to all it's dealerships on Monday. I won't find out the exact price until we find out what the rebate is on it. Could be $1000 could be $5000. Depends on how badly Ford want to liquidate their stock before the new one comes out I spose.If you're looking, make sure you ask them (after Monday of course) about this bonus thingy. You might get a good deal.If you're not in it for the tax savings, just buy something privately.But yeah, Ethridge isn't the best dealership ever, but I was and still am satisfied with their service. In saying that, I am yet to see them provide a service that goes above and beyond expectations.For example, my BA was delivered to me undetailed and with no fuel. So they filled it up twice, and got me to come back 3 days later and they detailed it. It's the little things in sales!I'll let you know how it all pans out with this bonus thingy.Cheers and thank you!

I don't want to spend much, just a remap/tune for approx 250rwkw.Thanks Mate if you run her in good (get it hot, lock it in a gear and floor it/let it rev down in the same gear, and do this a lot), you may end up with 245rwkw STOCK. There is at least one other member on here with said power output! Aim for more like 270kw from an edit!

xr6t ego Member 1,112 Member For: 18y 22d Gender: Male Location: PERTH WA Posted 11/01/08 01:06 PM Share Posted 11/01/08 01:06 PM (edited) First of all, congrats on shopping for a great deal. You certainly got it.But, and there is always a but, should you of waited for the new falcon? There is nothing worse to be paying off a car years down the track. Especially if that car is outdated. 5 years is a long time in the car game and what we thought 5 years ago as fast and great is slow and outdated compared to now, ie AU to BFR-spec will no doubt hold there value more than a xr6t, but 5 years is a long time.But hey, we only live once and we should enjoy it while we can... Well done Edited 11/01/08 01:08 PM by xr6t ego Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
