What kind of car are you trading in? What do you owe vs what it's worth? I wouldn't expect top private party value in a trade if that's what you need to get out of it.Great thread, this has been very helpful.
I've done an estimate for Ford Koons of Baltimore (I live like an hour away):
Base GT no options, MT
WOW Price: $27,595
+ $900 Freight
+$300 Doc Fee
+$750 Rebate for Taxes
-------------------------------
=$29,545 Before tax
+ $1772 6% MD State Tax
-------------------------------
=$31,317
+ $330 TTL
-$750 Rebate
-------------------------------
OTD: $30,897 to be financed through Credit Union
Two Questions:
1. Does this seem realistic? I'll have about $2000 to put down and a trade-in that I'm looking to get even on. If I make a profit even better. Negative equity is not an option.
2. Will a WOW price like that be available still on October 1st? That's the exact day I plan to buy the car. But that's almost two months in the future. Will there be any base 2016s left you guys think?
I really can't budge from a OTD near the above number. I really don't need this car, but I want it and I can just get into a Base GT without adding too much over my currently monthly payment. Would be a DD. Thanks in advance.
I also think that 2 months down the road it will be hard to find 16s especially base models. I'd imagine the only ones left will be specialty models that sat forever and fully loaded ones that couldn't move at $42k.
Maybe they'll do 17s at that price eventually. After all the cars that I've bought throughout my lifetime there's never been a once in a lifetime opportunity to buy a factory car off the lot. Deals will always be there.
