I too was caught in the same old story of a month ago a dealer said my D-plan was ok to order a GT. Now they won't take a D-plan for any GT 05/06.

I have read some people are getting their plans honored. If you are one of these lucky ones please let us know where. Dealer / Location / contact info.

I myself am looking for one on the East Coast - Carolina's Area.

Thanks

I found a dealer here in southern California that honored X-plan on a order for a GT vert. I have it in writing along with my DORA. The order was placed on 3/18 and I'm still C/U. I'm expecting to get my vert at the beginning of June.

Here are the details:

GT Premium Convertible
Windveil Blue, Dk. Charcoal, Black
Active Anti-theft
IUP
Spoiler delete
Convertible boot

MSRP = 31,995
X-plan = 29,507

The dealership is Villa Ford in Villa Park, CA

I'm in the midwest.....OH, to be exact. X planned with a dealer outside of Cincinnati.

Contact....

Fairfield Ford
Sales Manager is Brad Hauk
513-829-8000

I don't know if they are still accepting '05 orders, nor do I know if they are accepting X plan since I ordered mine during one of the worst nights of one of the worst winters in recent memory. I was the only customer they had in the new car showroom that day. The weather was so bad, they were getting ready to close two hours early before I walked in their door.

Brad is a good guy to work with, though. If you're serious about getting a car through them, let me know and I'll give my contact info as they said they'd honor my referrals.
 
I live in Virginia Beach, VA and three of my local dealers are accepting d-plan. Now if Ford would only build my car :nonono: !
Ordered 2-9-05. No word yet as to build date.
 
Clear Lake, Texas

I ordered mine from Bay Area Ford in Clear Lake, Texas on the X-Plan about 8 weeks ago. I just called the 800# a few minutes ago and found out I am now serialized!! :banana:
 
I received X-plan through Gulf Breeze Ford in Pensacola FL. If you want details PM me.

Sonic Blue '05 Premium GT
5-spd manual

I used my company X-Plan and ordered mine from Team Ford Northpoint (Alpharetta) in Atlanta on 1/22/05. I put the $1000 deposit down and received my VOC right then. As of yesterday, she is still C/U (grrrr!!).

My contact person is Rob Hersch (Inventory Manager) at Team Ford Northpoint - feel free to give him a call on (770) 649-5123 if you think this may help.

Good luck!

What to make sure of when you order on a plan.

All,

Been calling around and found a few dealers that will accept a plan near (100+ miles) me.

I would like to make a check list of what we should all ask for when we order off a plan.

1. Price and Agreement in WRITING that they will honor the plan price when vehicle arrives at dealer.
2. Priority of 10

Anything else?

I think that's everything. I just pulled out my VOC and verified that my priority code is 10 (X-plan). Sounds like we have it all under control and now we just have to wait...(grr!!).

yellow....you're closer to the situation than I am, but I don't see GT or vert availability getting any better....matter of fact, it's probably getting worse as allotments are starting to dry up in short order for '05s.

BTW....how are sales of the hybrid Escape? They are hot sellers around me, too. It's just that the Mustang has stole it's thunder. My dealer says that sales of the Escape hybrid is every bit as good as sales of Mustangs.

you are correct on allotments.the end is here. we may see a v-6 trickle in from time to time, but i am telling my customers to not be too optimistic on getting a gt.

we were given one hybrid. i sold it easily at the marked addendum of $3,995.the lady loves it and justified the purchase!!?? no, i didn't push the addendum nor agree to it,but it seems in our area, we had the only one and she was a tree hugger for sure. :rolleyes: lots of internet leads are coming in concerning the hybrid, but people (just like the mustang) are not accepting the lack of availability. the attitude is still "ford is doing this on purpose just to jack the price". funny thing is--they are buying the gmc hydrid truck at sticker and higher and it gets the same mileage as our non-hybrid F 150 :rlaugh: GOTTA LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Honestly though to answer your question, i think if we had plenty hybrids, we would still sell 30 mustangs to every 1 hybrid. this is bubba country and the populus is not concerned about being green. the lower the family income the bigger suv they want. :bang:

X-plan off the lot

After ordering a V-6 for my son from another dealer and waiting 3 months, we got tired of the wait/lies/etc. and went looking at local dealer inventory. Found the perfect car at Planet Ford in Spring, Texas - Torch Red GT, 5-speed, red interior & My Color. Added Cobra rims and alarm - used X-plan with NO problem. I highly recomment Chris and Planet Ford - I've bought ALOT of cars over the years and this was definetly the best experience I've had. The first time in a long time I have bought a car and not been treated like an idiot because I'm a woman. Everybody happy, especially my son since this was a replacement for a 2001 GT that was a total loss (tried to be practical and get a V-6, but that GT just kept calling our name!) :banana:
