Brand new 2015 Fiesta ST for $18,971. Does seem half bad for a dealer. I'm still patiently waiting for them to hit the used private party market.

Lulz I can't flip that car.

And I'm sure they'd give me a rotten price for my S2000.

We came up with the Oppositelock buyer's guide while out drinking last night.

Is it newer than 2012? If yes, is it an ST? If yes, then buy.

I had no idea they were going for that little.

Is that before or after all the usual dealer-added fees and whatnot?

How?! There's like 1 in a 50 mile radius, ST1 trim for like $24k

I really don't know. I hate dealerships almost more than Two and a Half Men.

The ad says $1000 cash back under the price.

EIGHTEEN THOUSAND!?!?

I paid the early adopter premium. ;___;

I'd bump up the radius. That one's like 270 miles away.

The way I see it, a $50 tank a gas is worth saving a couple thousand on a car.

Lucky for you, I have a feeling this car will hold it's value somewhat. They've got too much critical acclaim to depreciate like the Abarth.

That's what I'm expecting. At least in part. It won't be like the forever-$30,000-Lotus-Elise, but it won't be like my old standard Focus either.

I just bet they "forgot" to mention the delivery fee, stupid service fee, and underbody coating, which, of course, can't be removed.

true. My only issue would be warranty work being a PITA or would it be honored at any Ford dealer? (Never used a warranty so don't know how they work)

Jay Lauer > TheBaron2112

I'm betting Focus ST's will depreciate hard just because of the Fiesta ST.

Probably. I'm not going to buy one til I can get it from a private seller anyway.

Warranty works at any dealer.

well... Shit. Here I've been restricting my searches to <50 miles. Been full of win tonight. First try to blow up my engine then crash it. Now this. Is tomorrow Friday?!

There has to be a catch. I find it hard to believe a dealer would sell a FiST for $3000 below MSRP. They are probably listing it assuming you get all the discounts, so you probably have to be an active service member working for a Ford supplier who currently owns a Ford and is currently attending college. And of course it includes no dealer fee, service fee, or dealer added accessories.

Call ahead, then buy it.

I'll still win. This time purely to troll you.

Well it is in the middle of nowhere north Texas. Since it's not a truck, I'm guessing it isn't selling well. Since it's a dealer, you're probably right, there will be hidden fees out the ass.

I may call and them and see what's up. However, my sensible pants still tell me to wait until they hit the used market in a couple years time.

You only say that because you know he won't buy it.
