I like the sounds of the winter tire package...Does anyone know if this will at least be available to buyers in the Northern states... North East US gets arguably worse weather then Canada...
put them on kijiji some ST owner will snap them up immediately...The pricing is kind of where I figured it would be. I was actually afraid it would be over $50,000. Although I will have to revise my plan. I dont love the factory rims and was planning on getting some aftermarket ones and using the factory rims for winter tires. But if they are including the whole shebang i guess i will have to live with them
Oh don't worry. I'm sure once you add in some dealer fees, taxes, and interest on your loan it will be well above $50,000.The pricing is kind of where I figured it would be.

Just what I was thinking, while we'd be the type to use them as beater wheels they'll love to have em on their ST's, even Fiesta ST guys might want them... that's if its a size that will work, which it seems to be.put them on kijiji some ST owner will snap them up immediately...
For sure... $10K in some places... that's getting into the 50's... fuzzz....Yea.. and I am hearing all these stories about price getting marked up by dealers down in states.
Little bit of mark up in Canada it will be in the S3 or CLA45 territory.
I will think twice going forward with my order then.
ford builds in profit for themselves not for the dealers. The dealers are the factories customers...I don't think adding an admin fee is smart, it's just being greedy, Ford has already built in a fair profit margin for the dealers. I wouldn't be surprised if Ford checks with dealers to ensure they have real orders and aren't trying to hoard a few to sell later at a higher price.
maybe even a battery tender too since that helps with cold temperatures and even for those that plan to park up for a while.I believe Canadian orders might also be getting a car cover along with the extra 18" wheels and snow tires.
