Hot off the press - the dealer is looking to sell this for sticker today.
I’m very well aware it shouldn’t be but my dealership manager signed an agreement that the price would be honored when the car comes in. If they go back on their word I won’t buy the car it’s as simple as that, but they’re a very reputable dealer in my area. I appreciate you trying though, but I think I know my stuff considering I talked to them several times to confirm they’d accept itXPlan says the Mach 1 is not elegible.
The manager may have agreed to you give you the pricing equivalent to what X-Plan would be if it was offered by Ford. You should not see anything relating directly to X-Plan on any of your paperwork since Ford will not honor it. The manager can promise anything but they cannot give you program for a model that doesn’t qualify for it.I’m very well aware it shouldn’t be but my dealership manager signed an agreement that the price would be honored when the car comes in.

Essentially, how I worked my deal, got X plan pricing by shopping different dealers. Officially its not an X plan deal on paper, but who cares? the costs on that contract is what matters, call it what you want.
Agreed 100%, you are right. But, unfortunately there are a lot of dealers out there who do not know shit. That includes salespeople, managers and owners. I would just hate to see someone wait months for a car and then not be able to buy it because a dealer screwed up the pricing. I've seen it happen.
Yep totally fair concern. I was pleased they honored the deal, waited over 4 months. A good part of me was expecting BS or a bait and switch on price once the car actually arrived.
Yeah i'd be pretty pissed too which is why I talked to them several times before submitting the order for the car and getting that signed contract. Im just glad im getting the discount and dont have to go all the way to Granger in Iowa. I considered not getting a pin but the MCA membership is only $35 for the year and it doesnt hurt to have it anyway, as yeah its not an OFFICIAL X-Plan deal. Which is a huge benefit to me, that's going to be a company car.
Out of curiosity, which dealer are you working with?
Roesch in Bensenville IL
Nice, I’ve heard good things about them. I tried to stay within a 15-20 minute drive of my house for the same reason, try to keep the rock chips down until I can get it protected
Roesch Ford is a great dealer. They know their stuff and have good people working there. Earlier this year, I bought my ‘22 GT Premium for MSRP. While every other Ford dealer in Chicagoland is adding ADM to all their cars.
