Default 2013 Special Order

Hello All,

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a 2013 with all the options but dynamic cruise. My wife really wanted parking assist and it appears you can't get the F-Sport with parking assist, so since I'm ordering i figured i would get everything

Anything that i need to know when I special order, negotiation wise or questions i should ask? I was going to lease, but I think I'm done with car payments and I'm going to make my wife commit for 10yrs this time. She will be turning in your 2010 450h that has almost $4k in equity, so that is a plus.

Thanks,

Ken

Special order, good luck. Negotiation wise, not in a strong position better if getting a car off the lot. Parking assist is mandatory for me after my incident last year.

Ask about delivery time. It may be a long wait.

I spoke with the dealer again today about price and she quoted me 500 over invoice for a fully loaded fsport minus the dynamic cruise control, which was $39k. Seems to be a bit high and I haven't done much research due to work. Hopefully this weekend.

As for the lead time on the car she keeps quoting 90-120 days, I can't see it being that long and I think they want me to buy today hence the long lead time quote.

I would def get thr PCS and radar cruise. That has saved me 3 times in near collisions. I won't drive a car without it now.
