    Bluetooth

    I have a bluetooth headset that works just fine with my phone that I got for $60. Now, I imagine it would be nice to have something integrated with the car, but is it really worth the $440 markup?

    $3000 markup!?

    Search around. I emailed every dealer in my state. One emailed me back saying they would sell me one at $500 over invoice.

    Speed warning?

    I test drove a V6 the other day. The dealer had me open up and go to 100mph. I didn't hear any beep.

    Is there a God?

    You assume a whole hell of a lot in this statement. For one, you assume that the universe was created. What if it always existed? You also assume the existence of a singular God... what if there are many Gods? You assume there are hard fast "rules"... what if they are only rules because we...

    X-Plan Sales

    Keep trying. I emailed just about every dealership in my state (Oregon). Most were marking up 1-2k over MSRP. I finally reached some that were giving MSRP, and then I just got in contact with one that offered me invoice +$500. So just keep emailing around. You should hit something...

    Reccomend any Ford Dealerships around Corvallis, OR?

    Thanks for the replies. Anybody have any dealings with Mackenzie Ford (I think they are in Tigrid). The internet sales manager just offered me a deal where I could configure the new Mustang however I wanted, and order it through them for invoice +$500.

    YEEEEESSSS!!!

    You're right... I've edited my post (edited out the question). I have just been so one minded that I was going to have to negotiate down the price, when a dealer offered me the car at the price I wanted, I was still in the mindset of getting a better deal. $500 over invoice is fine. I will...

    YEEEEESSSS!!!

    Hi all, Some of you saw my other thread. Anyway, I am going to get a Mustang GT. My first car that I have ever bought (my other car was a family hand me down). Anyway, I've been looking around and asking for quotes. The best I had come up with was a dealer who said "We'll do it for only...

    First time buyer... things to watch out for?

    I have already been approved financing through my bank, and I think that it will be pretty much impossible for a dealer to beat (3.5%, and I don't have to start paying it (and it doesn't incure interest) untill June of next year)). Thanks again for the replies :) I'll try to keep you posted...

    First time buyer... things to watch out for?

    Went and test drove the V6 Today (the dealer gets the GT next week). It was a pretty nice ride. I was going 100mph and it felt real smooth. However, I think I'd like more power so we shall see how the GT feels. I saw why the V6 was $25k. They had a $2k "dealers" markup for "limited...

    Reccomend any Ford Dealerships around Corvallis, OR?

    Hi all, I am looking into getting the '05 Mustang. But I am a first time buyer and don't know what the good dealerships are. I live in Corvallis, but am willing to go to Portland or Eugene (or the areas in between). Thanks :)

    What is AQHA? Oh, and it isn't a problem calling those in rural areas... I pretty much live in a rural area :P (I go to school at Oregon State University... Corvallis,OR population is about 50,000).

    First time buyer... things to watch out for?

    Thanks. I know not all cars salesmen are crooks, just %90 of them :p But seriously, I do know honest cars salesmen (have a cousin who is one). But I have heard plenty of bad stories to know that there are enough bad ones out there that you have to look out for them. Btw... I have...

    First time buyer... things to watch out for?

    Hi all, I am getting ready to purchase my first car with a special auto loan program offered to ROTC Cadets. I have had a car, but it was a family hand me down so I didn't purchase it. This will be my first buy. I am heavily considering the 05 stang (top of my list). What kind of things...
