IMO best get your price selling private rather than the dealer trying to screw you on the changeover.Good luck with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASNU Member 261 Member For: 21y 9m 19d Location: Brooklyn Posted 26/08/09 09:11 AM Author Share Posted 26/08/09 09:11 AM Trading it mate.There only talking 20K but so may change my mind upgrading.That just got me going straight away.I was thinking of a new F6 but when they started talking nearlly 80K I nearlly hang up.Titan ford have a demo F6 for 64K but I think that should really be the new price for one.Really have not had a good exprience in the past 10 years buying 4 new cars.You would think it would be a good exprience but when you start doing it it nearlly makes more sense hanging onto what you have, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just depends on how desperate they are but in this recession anything goes. The best times to buy are end of year (fiscal, calendar), quarter, month etc. Floor stocks are usually more negotiable.

lucky Inactive Members 1 Member For: 15y 2m 13d Posted 01/09/09 10:05 AM Share Posted 01/09/09 10:05 AM I got lucky and bought a 2008 model (got it in April 09) with only 17k's for $48K drive away (New, full 3yr warranty etc), but that was just before Rudd confirmed the small business tax break @ 50% which has increased demand. Apparently Ford ramped down production and there is a wait for delivery so deals are scarce. I shopped around a fair bit and the next best deal I could get was on a demo model for $52K or a new one for $58K in any colour/trim spec. Searching Carsales points to some deals in Vic if you are prepared to travel to pick it up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorxr6t Member 91 Member For: 20y 6m 30d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 02/09/09 06:10 AM Share Posted 02/09/09 06:10 AM I got mine late last year and it was a floor stock (june08 built). It's white with black leather trim, not exactly a 'popular' colour combination for everyone except me! The dealer was 'very' accomodating I must say. I picked it up for just over $51k. So yes I definitely wouldn't pay more than $52k for a floor stock, but a new one for $60K in any colour/trim of your choice is not an entirely unreasonable price IMO.

ASNU Member 261 Member For: 21y 9m 19d Location: Brooklyn Posted 02/09/09 07:25 AM Author Share Posted 02/09/09 07:25 AM Ron.The beauty of this forum is getting feedback from people who have bought these cars already.I wanted to get some responses that have given me a indication of what to expect/Not the final price.From the responses already given I would assume I can if I go ahead that a demo model with low Kms would go for around maybe 50/52K/Late 08 early 09 53/56K if any left/ time of month or floor stock etc etc etc.A new one as per dealer prices where over 60K for my choice paint options etc so everybody who has replied are right.Exactly what I wanted to hear.I did not know that the cars did not come with a LSD standard either but reading forum posts there seem to be a few aftermarket options there if that's what I wanted.I could even get them to fix the squeaky seat before delivery as well if I want.Thank you guys for being so informative.

One dealer might in fact be struggling and will definitley move more than another one who might be sitting back counting his money. But yes, it is good to get an idea from those that have already been there, done that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
