My dealer said, if in October/November when my car arrives, he would take of the Costco rebate if there is one. :ford:

For Canadians I think it's going to be tough to beat X-plan plus Costco rebate. I think together they should come in lower than A-plan by at least a few hundred dollars (although you should be able to apply it to A-plan as well).

I'm hoping they also have a 1.9% financing option.

My dealer also said my X-plan order would be eligible for any incentives at delivery. Hope there are some I can find.

I'm with you on that one!

Not going to risk it, going in pre-approved with my credit union. Was quoted 1.72% on 60 or 72 months.

Yeah, I'm definitely going in with something from the CU, just not sure what rate they'll quote me yet. Hopefully less than 2%, that would be nice.

JEEZ...they're basically paying you to finance it. What a deal.

Still looking for one of those negative interest loans. ;)

Same here. I'm hoping for 1.9% for 60.

will placing an order or buying one straight from the dealers lot with the x plan pricing be more difficult later on if these cars start selling like hot cakes?

Unlikely to be a problem in my opinion and what I'm hearing from my local dealers. Ford has a reimbursement schedule that is included in the plans so the dealer isn't losing out. Trying to negotiate a discount without qualifying for one of the plans will probably be much harder if they sell very well, at least in the beginning.

I also think that after production kicks in there will be no shortage of these cars, at least not on the scale I am used to when I ordered my C7. For all of 2014 you couldn't find a Z51 car that was not sold, or marked up with a ridiculous "market adjustment", so ordering was the only way to go. But, they only made 35,523 C7's (official numbers not released, not including the 1,000 Premier Edition cars) for 2014. That number is actually quite large for Corvettes and usually as the models age the production slows to 10-15k unites a year. The Mustang will be made in much larger numbers over the entire life of the generation, I'm sure.

Yeah, those are tough to find ;) Below-inflation loans -- i.e., negative real interest rate -- is not half bad though!

As long as you are willing to wait for your vehicle to be built, you can always order your car X-Plan. Some dealers will allow you to purchase from the lot at X-Plan, but they've got to have inventory to allow that.
