Bought a new C-max Energi on Saturday. Went through a number of dealers on Capitol on Friday before, stopped at Ford dealership as well, but they did not have any Energi left. They told us, though that they will get them on Saturday at noon. Called Saturday morning, and they informed us that they indeed got them. Set up an appointment with a sales guy, but when we (4 people, icluding a 4-year-old) showed up, he was not there. They quickly found someone else to take care of us. There was no much pressure to sell. The guy went through all the features and was nice enough to let us drive all together by ourselves, not trying to squeeze in. Energi is nice, I liked it much more than other plug-ins that we saw the day before. Then we got back and the sales guy, Saidu Sulaiman, took over through there. He have made the offer on price and basically said that they cannot go down, as these cars where selling fast (easy to believe, given that they were out of them). We also went through various loan/lease options. Once we accepted the offer, the process was smooth and fast. They got me a bit better percentage on the loan than what I had at the preapproval from BofA. They got me through a very detailed explanation of the car features on the way out, paired my cell phone, and set up online link through SYNC feature. Overall, it was a pretty pleasant experience, even 4-year-old liked it. One thing to mention: other dealers at this location seem to be nicer than average. Certainly a good spot to visit if you are not sure which brand to pick.
