Hiya dude. Xplan is offered by Ford to people who work for companies (and some non companies) that supply Ford Motor Co. with parts & equipment. As an employee of IBM, I can get in on the xplan (as well as GM & Nissans partner recognition programs) and have a 03 cobra on order under Xplan . The Xplan allows you to purchase the vehicle at invoice plus 4% I believe. Which on the 03 Cobra should be a savings slightly over $2K compared to MSRP. I'm not to sure about the other plans, though I belive the A-plan is for direct Ford employees and their good friends and nets you the vehicle at invoice. From what I've heard, the only vehicle Ford is not allowing to be sold under plan atm, is the Tbird. As for getting an SVT vehicle under plan, you just have to find a dealer that is willing to sell at MSRP. Ford MoCo rebates the dealerships the discount, so to them it is same as selling at MSRP. The only reason a dealer has for not selling an SVT on plan is because they want to make more than the MSRP profit.

OK, if this is true, then can any dealers that are members of this forum explain why my dealer wouldn't honor the X-plan, but would give me MSRP? If it were true that Ford rebated the difference between the X-plan price and MSRP, then there'ld be no reason not to honor it. So from my experience, I'ld have to conclude that Ford does NOT make up the difference between X-plan and MSRP.

That's a good question. I could guestimate a bunch of minor reasons why they might not (don't do many plans and don't want to research how it's done, don't want to wait many weeks for the rebate check,...), although these are lame reasons, they will have no problem selling the cars out at MSRP regardless. The best way to find out is to simply ask them. Maybe there is a valid reason for it that is dealer specific. Tell them that you know other people are buying the car on plan and that you know they make the same amount of money either way. I'd like to hear their reason as well. You can always keep searching for a dealer that will sell on plan, worth it even to travel out of state IMO. Good luck.

If you feel bad about it, think about the 2000R cobra buyers who paid $60k for a slower car than the one you're getting. I feel for em.
