I leased a BMW from Keeler about 9 years ago, because they beat my local BMW outlet by a good margin on price. I know the area pretty well, I have some family there, and get up there a lot for work, also. So, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks. I got my 2017 Zh from Keeler last August. They were more than glad to give it to me for way below market because they weren't too happy about me talking to the previous owner of the vehicle. Not my fault they left the person's registration in the car. If you do head to Fuccillo, ask for Don Grounds. Nice guy. DrakeR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrakeR Posted September 28, 2019 Author Share Posted September 28, 2019 So....finally pulled the trigger today. Reserve II AWD. 2.0T Blue Diamond, Cappuccino. No other options. $47.99K MSRP. $41.5 K cap cost. 15K mi/yr. $500/mo. $2.7K DAS, including 1st payment, Acquisition, Fees, etc. Wasn't eligible for loyalty. First FoMoCo product for me in a long time, so obviously I knew that going in. Negotiation took about 20 minutes. Rather pleasant. Put down a little more upfront than I usually do, but not so much that I wasn't OK with it, as long as it came off the back end. Which it did. Ray Price in Stroudsburg, PA. Very professional IMHO. No games. Quite happy with the deal, overall. Maybe could have done a little better, but I guess I'm getting old-don't have the fight in me I used to have. Was glad to get it over quick. Cheers and sincere thanks to everyone who replied-you were all very helpful, and gave me a good basis to work from. That was invaluable.

bbf2530 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Hi DrakeR. Happy to hear it all finally worked out for you. Best of luck with your new MKZ, and don't be a stranger here on the MKZ Forum! DrakeR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrakeR Posted September 30, 2019 Author Share Posted September 30, 2019 Longislander, bbf2530, and drolds1: Again, thanks for the help. And I would say that characterizing this car as smooth and comfortable is very accurate. Seems to be the best riding car I've ever had, and one of the few current cars I tried (and I tried many) where the seats fit me well, especially the position of the headrest. In the end that was the deciding factor. Audio is the best I've had also, better than the ELS system in my old Acura, (and that was a good system). Quite enjoying it.
