Hit 20-30 dealers end of month with emails for bids on your model in several colors. SE/SES brown, etc. Out of the 1/2 who respond, work the top 3 against each other. If you only solicited 3-5 bids from the locals (the usual suspects) that may explain your problem. Unfortunately american car franchisees whether Honda or Ford etc are pretty much the same in tactics ... Read More...

no luck with the dealer-price is the best they can do-and, no other ford dealers have responded for quotes-see why ford is not doing well? Read More...

"FORD FOCUS 2008 IS A 2007 IN MEXICO!!!" No, it's not. Our '08 looks embarrassingly ugly. I don't want to be seen in one. :D & I'd rather get our '07 ST w/ the big 2.3 (no turbo, please), which no one else gets: http://www.fordvehicles.com/cars/focus/features/specs/ http://www.gulfcoastnews.com/RT2005FordFocus.htm The newer "foreign" Focus, which is ...

Focus Wagon gone...

Written by: fordwagon67 on Jul 03, 2007 09:28 PM

This is very sad... I'm glad I got a Dark Red 2007 SES Wagon in Nov '06. The engineering and build quality are inferior (in varying degrees)to my wifes 2003 VW Jetta Wagon in every meaningful way with the exception of steering feel and roominess. But...I wanted to put my money where my mouth is and buy American. I'm very proud to drive a Ford built by the good folks at ... Read More...

I don't know what your timeline is but august-sept is bound to be a shooting gallery for these cars. Do try 10-20 chevy dealers via email before july 6 or end of month for 13ish on a chevy malibu ls 4 cyl base before a Cobalt. Lots more car for the money. I've seen 12800 prices for GM supplier folks. Possibly 15-16000ish for the V6LT model. Good Luck --jjf I live in Miami ... Read More...
