Question on the Focus sale....

[GTChick01]

Is the sale still going on for $3,500 off MSRP?

[SALEEN449]

yes ma'am.....how many would you like???

[GTChick01]

Depends on how many are free. :D

Few more questions:

Is that $3,500 on top of the $2,500 rebate Ford is doing right now? Or is that including it?

What kind of financing deals do ya'll having going on right now?

[SALEEN449]

that is including the 2500.....so it's 1000 off list.....the average markup on a 2004 focus is 800-900 bucks so it should put you about 100 behind invoice

on financing you have some choices.....if you take the rebate we can look at ford and some other banks(check yours too) or if you decide to give up the rebate you have 0% available up to 60 months and 2.9% on 72......if credit is good you are generally better off on the focus taking the rebate and a higher rate becuase of the low amount financed

here is an example
buy a focus for 15000
subtract 2500 rebate
add ttl 997.23
total financed 13497.23
0 cash down 5.9%(rate for shits and giggles) 60 mos at 260.48

same car for 15000
no rebate
add ttl 1153.48
total financed 16153.48
0 cash at 0% 60 mos at 269.22

even though you have a 0% rate, the cost of interest does not outweigh the rebate and that is why the payment is cheaper.....this will generally happen for financed amounts under 20000.

Damn. I'm in sales I and I can't even spit shit out like that. Then again, I leave financing up to the credit dept.

Skip,
Steven gave me one of his and one of your cards at the MMCM. I have a co-worker that is driving from Fort Worth to Plano everyday in a late 90's Dodge Ram and is looking to get something that will get better gas milage, so I told him about the sale on the Focus you are having. I will be giving the cards to him tomorrow, and he said he would be interested in checking it out. Should I have him ask for you or Stephen specifically, or would you like him to call ahead?

It depends, If your friend has some pricing questions or financing questions, it would be better for him to call skip at 817-319-2298, he is the numbers man and can give you the best info on what programs we have available. If he has questions on the actual focus and would like to come by and drive it and know more about the different models available, then I am the guy to talk to. I hope this helps, skip will prolly have some feedback as well. Thanks for the referal, the best compliment that I can get is business from friends and family. I can be reached at 817-3205115 if you have any other questions, thanks again.

[SALEEN449]

yes....please have him call me on my cell 817-319-2298 before he comes out so I can make sure Steve and I are available to take car of him......thanks for the referral

[TrueBlueGT]

Thanks guys. I am at the airport in San Antonio right now, so I will see him in the morning, and give him the message.
