Interest rate?

What would be a good interest rate that might actually be available on an 03 L considering perfect credit?

Thanks

Since Ford rarely offers financing incentives on SVT, your best bet is thru a Credit Union. The going rate is roughly 4 to 5% for 60 mo.

I have mine thru my credit union also. They had the best rates around. heck, my L, car, and boat are all thru there. There prime rate just got cut 1/2 %, so the rates should be going down a bit here soon...hopefully.
Some people did manage to get the Ford 0% on thier L.

How?

How would you go about getting the Ford 0% on a L? Any ideas?

Thanks

Ford has to offer it.

its a sales incentive.

don't count on it happening on Lightnings... the did it once but only briefly in late 2001 (after sept. 11th) I believe.

I am sorry for those of Sept 11, but I did get 2.9% 60mo in Oct '01. Could have done 0.0% 36mo, but for me that would have been ~$810/mo. Too much, that's the main reason I went for it last year instead of waiting till this year.

Ford actually states right in the commercial, and in any ads, for 0% financing, that it doesn't apply to SVT vehicles.
