Yes there are cars that cost more but $60,000 for a car is a lot of money too most people in the US. It is Well above the average price paid for a car. And the point isn't the cost, the point is the lack of basic quality control which cars that cost half as much have.
I said the same to Minn19. Unfortunately, the way markets work, how affordable the car is to people have very little to do with this. What has to do with this is the average price of all sports cars or average price of regular cars. And in that respect, $60,000 isnt that much money. There are handful of sports cars at or around $60,000. In fact the only car I know below that is BMW M2. All other sports cars are above that price, way above in fact. Also for $60,000, you cant buy an average SUV like an X5. I consider it average because at high end you have cayenne costing as much as $150,000 and on low end you have forrester costing $25,000. $60,000 is still way below the median. I understand its a lot. But Ford is a company that has to go with profit and cost of production.
MSRP, but most aren’t selling at that unless you are a terrible negotiator. Fords cash cow is the XLT Super Crew which sticker around high 40s and low 50s. After rebates/discounts they are easily had in the mid to high 30s.
Idk if you’re American or not but I love freedom more than money. I also love having options. If someone doesn’t care to invest in their product to care of me, why should I invest in them?
I didn’t mention this earlier, regarding the tail light panel emblem but it was denied under warranty because it could not be ascertained as to whether I did it or it was a defect. That’s not fair treatment.
That's literally illegal. Warranty coverage cannot be denied unless they can prove you (or something else) caused the damage.
Curious if any auto manufacturer uses "magic" paint that won't chip when hit with high speed rocks? Everyone that I know that buys high end sports cars (Porsche, MB, Audi, BMW, etc) immediately protects their paint with XPel or the like.
Take this FWIW, but my GT350's paint is worlds better in the anti-chip department than the Subaru Impreza I leased or any of the four VW GTI's/Golfs I've owned. Any one of those cars would chip the paint if you just looked at it with a stern expression. :frusty: In 8,000 miles, I've had only 1 paint chip on my GT350, and that's from a track day where I didn't apply TrakkTape far enough up the hood. :tsk:
