Tentatively scheduled; however, well know for sure when we get through the formal process on Thursday. We should get a VIN, I hope. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkOnMac Report post Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) Thank you. That's what I was afraid of. Ginger Ale was the only color I liked. Damn!I chatted with someone at Ford.com. Here is a quote: " In regards to the Ginger Ale exterior, this color has been discontinued for the 2013 Fusion model year. I do apologize for any inconvenience..." I called my salesman at Galpin Ford. He has heard nothing of this. There is a Ford rep at his dealership today and he will find out more information on this and on scheduling. I don't know if anyone else on this forum cares about this color. My salesman says a lot of his customers have ordered it, but I see very few in online inventories. I'm considering Sterling Gray if my #1 choice is not possible. Mark Edited February 27, 2013 by MarkOnMac Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Randyb Report post Posted February 26, 2013 Our special order Ginger Ale Fusion was delivered on 2/22, so if this rumor is true, i guess we were fortunate to get this color. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crisis182 Report post Posted February 27, 2013 I'm waiting...I think it will be worth the wait. I don't want to settle which is what I'd be doing if I got anything else right now... I'm excited for all of you that are getting your cars soon. I wanted the HyTi but unfortunately my previous vehicle (2012 Lexus CT200h) was recently declared a total loss based on a brutal hit I took from behind on the highway. After wrangling with my local Ford dealer (Gilbert, AZ) and his continued broken promises, I found a Ford Fusion Hybrid SE with enough upgrades to satisfy me. I'll be picking it up in a cross state transaction in California this weekend while I'm out there for a wedding. I'm bummed I'm not getting the push button start or the feature where I can open the door just by being near the car, but I think I'll live. MSRP was 33125 and I got it for 31125, so I'm happy with my negotiating. http://fordlabels.webview.biz/webviewhybrid/WindowSticker.aspx?vin=3FA6P0LUXDR227437 Congrats again to those of you finally in the pipeline.

Had those in the Camry, but if that's the only reason to get the Ti, you will be fine with the SE. The push button has its quirks, like if you forget to step on the brake and push the button, then think something is wrong because you cant shift the car. OOPS. been there, done that, a lot! LOL I really would like the HyTi, not for the PBS, but for the Sony system. I could care less about all the other doohikies, I just like a good sound system that doesnt look like a hack job like aftermarkets do. I just noticed the "8YR/100,000 Hybrid unique components" warranty on your sticker. What exactly are "hybrid unique components?" The battery, the regenerative brakes, the hybrid motor? Only in CA, the rest of the country though is lower. I believe the Toyota ones are 125K miles. And yes, that is what those are, Anything related to the hybrid system, but I dont think the actual CVT is included, but just the electronics part.

laval2031 Report post Posted February 27, 2013 I have A plan on my Titanium Hybrid. I received the $750 private cash rebate. Will I be able to combine the $500 rebate that every gets plus the $750 private cash togther to get a total of $1250 rebate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will I be able to combine the $500 rebate that every gets plus the $750 private cash togther to get a total of $1250 rebate? I was able to do this with my deal. The salesman "locked in" the cash rebate price from Ford. At least that's how he worded it. I am still a little worried since the $750 rebate expires March 4th but he said it's locked in and that the expiration date won't be a problem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TerrorTodd Report post Posted February 27, 2013 Only thing is that I don't think the $500 rebate applies to the Titanium trim option. There are no rebates listed out there for the Titanium Hybrid model currently. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are no rebates listed out there for the Titanium Hybrid model currently. I hope that's not true because my dealer put the $500 rebate into my deal and my order is a hybrid titanium. He signed it so I guess I can sue if they don't follow through. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
