Wow. MSRP. Such a deal. Do you know there is a recession/depression going on? The FFH is a great car (I should know, I have one) but MSRP is a bit steep.

hybridfam: That is the exact car I picked up last week (after an 8 - week order time). I am highly impressed. It is the best sedan I have ever owned (and I have had several). The smart gauge is like nothing else out there. The car is very quiet at speed, is comfortable for 5 passengers, and the nav/sync system is best in class. I could go on and on, but suffice to say you have made a great choice! -

Milan/Fusion Hybrid Gets $3,400 Tax Credit!
frankieboy replied to Mercury Milan's topic in General Discussion
I agree. My FFH was due for production the week of 4/13. Instead, it began production last week, and was finished this week. It is through production now, and awaiting loading onto a railcar. -
My lease is up on a V6 Honda Accord Sedan, which gets about 18 mpg in the city. It is a very good car, but I expect my new FFH, with 502A in White Platinum, will be a great car.

VIN number, but no schedule date....
frankieboy replied to Will_Robinson's topic in General Discussion
My FFH ordered in late February (502A, White Platinum) was scheduled for production week of 4/13. However, my salesperson emailed me yesterday, saying the car is being built this week. :D He estimates delivery in 2 - 3 weeks. -

Jim, The fact the car is built in Mexico should not be a concern. It is designed in Michigan, and I am told much of the management in the Mexican plant is American. Much of the content is American as well. And when a Fusion or Milan is sold, it supports a domestic car company and helps keep many Americans employed. On the flip side, buying a Honda or Toyota that is produced in this country has a benefit to the local workers, local suppliers, the American HQ of the foreign car company, but that is it. I see buying the Ford as being better for the domestic economy and workforce than buying a domestically built Honda or Toyota or Nissan. -
So any discounts on the Fusion Hybrid?
frankieboy replied to Carnivore's topic in General Discussion
My dealer in Los Angeles has an FDAF of $353. The total invoice price of the FFH with 502A in White Platinum is $29934. I got it for invoice through my employer's hybrid purchasing program. I ordered the FFH in late February. It has a VIN and is set for production the week of 4/13. :D -

I ordered White Platinum, with 502A package. Car is due for production week of 4/13. I already have a VIN. -
Good job on the order. I ordered mine about 1 month ago. I have the VIN already, and it is set for production the week of 4/13. Like you, I am a long time Honda owner (7 vehicles over the past 20 years). I am selling my 2006 Accord as soon as I take delivery. BTW, I already registered my vehicle on the Ford Owner's website, using the VIN given me by my salesperson.
