Jeep to ST convert....

[Racer83L]

Currently own a few jeeps.. Shopping for a FiST. Found a kona blue with nav, sunroof, black wheel red caliper. Trying to negotiate a deal on it. I am married with a 3 yr old and 1 yr old. This is a commuter car and the kids will never go in it. Im excited for the car, test drove one today and I havent smiled like this since driving my 94 Mustang Gt, or 08 Jeep (off road)

Welcome aboard. If you have any purchasing questions feel free to post.

Well, I live in Long Island NY. Its expensive here... 1 dealership has 2 ST's both exactly the same... They are offering 2,500 off (ford incentive) and they will do an additional $300.. Good or no?

What options? Have you tried looking on truecar.com?

 

[Racer83L]

Not until you mentioned it.. As per them its an exceptional price. I still feel like I should be doing better for some reason. It was their first offer to me and they have not budged since then. On another car I have, they dropped 1K off sticker then 4K more when I pushed (Jeep Grand Cherokee)

The Fiesta ST is a more specialty car. They don't have a lot of margin in the car to begin with and there's not a lot of them to sell so unless it's been sitting on the lot awhile they probably don't want to go down anymore. At least it's not like the Focus RS or specialty Mustangs where most are probably paying over sticker to buy them. I would have happily paid sticker price for my Fiesta ST, but I still searched for ways to get money off. $1k incentive from Ford Credit, $500 Ford college program, and $500 cash back from the mail. $2000 off was not a bad deal to me.

Shop around if any other dealers have Fiesta STs in stock, but it's not something many dealers do stock, and if they do it's one or two. I factory ordered mine because I wanted a specific set of options that no dealer in the entire US had in stock. $2800 off isn't a bad deal. If you like it on the test drive, you'll love it when you buy it and the purchase price won't be a big deal anymore once you're in and driving it.

Take a ride out to NJ. I didn't get the steal of the century, but I paid 19k for my base model out the door. You should be able to get that car for about 21k especially if it doesn't have recaros

thats where its at. $21K. if you guys concur I will pick it up. looking forward to having a fun car.

right now I have these.

well I signed the papers. somehow they only need 2 hours to prep the car. It should be ready today after 4:30. I dont think I can pick it up until after 7 tho. I will post pics once it arrives. I know to all of you this is no big deal, to me this was a long time coming, my daily driver was the 94 Jeep for the past 5 years (white jeep was my family car) now the Fiesta becomes the daily, white jeep remains family and the red jeep becomes the spare car to haul whataver.

 

[Racer83L]

picked it up last night with 21 miles on it (half of them I did test driving it)
Its already at 166 miles. car is fantastic.
