Hi Senna, any thoughts as to when Ford/FPV will bring on factory bonuses on the F6X as my local dealer now has three of them and cannot sell any as they are to expensive when compared to the TTG allowing for the current bonuses on the TTG and if none in the pipeline put the pressure on.

Kind Regards

Hey Maverick, There aren't any bonuses on the F6X because there aren't that many around. If your dealer accepted 3 units they should've had a bit more thought about it! The F6X, although a great car to drive, is not a big volume seller.

Your local dealer took a big gamble and I think he lost...

Tell your local dealer I'll trade him my TT and $10k cash. That'll get him out of one of them. :)

Hi Senna, I agree at the launch FPV made the low volume statement but in fairness they knew at the price they where asking it could be nothing but.

FPVs statements regarding performance/value versus the competition was correct although IMO they where trying to justify the expensive cost of the F6X.

For a so called low volume vehicle they are correct as further research over the weekend has shown there are many dealers holding plenty of stock and cannot move for the simple reason Price.

I have driven the F6X and its good but I and many others I have spoken to believe its overpriced and time will prove this when the factory bonuses begin as they cannot sit around for ever.

Ford/FPV still do not get it, everything SELLS at a price, these things are not selling because of price and I hope they pull their slow finger out and do something about it.

Kind Regards

I hear you. I like the idea, but the final product wasn't up to the FPV standard I don't reckon. Needed some 20's, an interior colour option and tougher styling and it'd be a no-brainer. Parts-bin wasn't enough I guess. :spoton:

Fingers crossed for 2010 seeing FPV have another crack? Or will we be waiting?
