That's a terrible price. The 2024 extended range AWD Premium has an MSRP of $49,995. Your 2023 (when you go to sell at some point in the future) will be one year older and sell at a discount to an equivalent 2024. That needs to be reflected in the price you get today.

To be clear, the price I mentioned included Destination charge of $1,800. So for an apples to apples comparison, it is still a chunk less than the 2024 model. Note also that the zero percent financing is only available for the 2023 verion - that is a huge cost differentiator vs the 2024.

Good points. Ford values the 0% financing at $3,000 because that's what they'll give you in lieu of 0% financing. So $3,000 + $1,800, almost $5,000, is a decent chunk of change. I still think it should be more heavily discounted than that, but it's not as badly priced as I first thought.

This isn't your typical either/or rebate/finance rate program. You get both. Using a hypothetical 6% rate, which is hard/impossible to find these days, the Ford rate is worth nearly $10k on a $50k loan.

New to this forum but have been browsing for years. Recently have been looking to as my lease for my id.4 is ending.

The dealers are saying its end of the month and they are dieing to make deals but still are being stingy on the negotiation. One gave me a 42k Select, 0% APR for 72 months at 600 a month, 0 down which wasn't too bad. The other was giving me a "great deal" on a 46k lease for 638 a month 0 down. Negotiated abit and the best they could do was $10 less for $628


I'm from the NJ area so the charge up is restarting in he Summer so the 4k off the top is nice so why I'm not pushing hard for a 23 with the 24s coming. When I brought this up they kinda struggled. My guess they are trying to go for people that don't know about the state rebates that start in summer. The one dealer looks to have 30+ on their lot and honestly didnt really seem interested in lowering under MSRP or negotiating. I guess they are ok holding off.

I used CarGuru to help me find the best deal in the area (DE/PA/MD/NJ) area.
I bought a Grabber Blue 23 GTPE with Nite Pony for $51k ($54k OTD). PA seemed to have the dealer discounts. TrueCar/Costco, etc. didn’t reflect CarGuru’s pricing. I paid what it said it would be.
I ended up buying in PA. PA dealers were the most aggressive.
MD dealers were discounted pretty good, but not enough. DE and NJ were not moving off their prices.

You should be able to get a good deal on black or white, they are about the only colors left.

Caution: still watch for “dealer installed after market” crap. The dealership I bought mine at tried to add $1600 of stuff (interior/exterior protection, lo-jack, anti-theft) I would have 100% passed on. They ended up discontinuing those off.
