Just wanted to post up to let the locals know where I ended up going to get my latest acquisition :
I had physically visited a total of 4 dealerships, called over a dozen to see if any of them had my choice of colors, package trim and of course price.
The finalists came down to :
1) Evergreen Ford & Scarff Ford (Auburn) : Closest to my house and facility respectively, didn't seem very capable of locating the car even when I had provided the VIN numbers direct from Ford's website. It was sad since they were highly recommended.
2) Ford of Kirkland : My initial meeting had left a pretty bitter taste in my mouth with two slick sales people trying to almost pressure me into getting what I wasn't interested in. Their internet manager, was much better at handling the situation so I kinda stuck with him for a bit, but after a few days of phone tag and with the final voice message stating that they could get a car with a different color of choice, I went to...
3) Sound Ford (Renton) : First visit left me wondering if they were really interested in dealing with me. A hungry salesman "Bini" had followed up with me pretty much every day since he had picked up my lead. We got so far as to figuring out exactly what I want, and when I needed it by and he understood what it took to really, earn the business. Happily, after a 3 hour negotiation session and lots of back and forth, we settled on the price and within hours after that, the located car of my choice was brought over to the dealership where I then assumed possession of it.
Couldn't be happier with the service. Relatively painless and highly recommended!
Regards!
