I've leased three 5-speed wagons (1 SE Sport, 2 ZTWs) - and the dealer tried to talk me out of it all three times.
The buyout on my last one was something like 11,700 (leather, moonroof, 6-pack CD, side air bags, traction control, heated mirrors) - I tried to sell it at lease end - no bites whatsoever (wasn't posting here at the time) ... apparently Ford Credit got less than 8,000 at the auction (my dealer bought it) and it had less than 85k on it.
Resale basically sucks on these cars so Ford Credit bites it big time at auction because they have the same residual percentage as automatic sedans ... which is all good news for anyone buying one used.
If you're buying from a dealer you should be able to really negotiate hard - if it's a private sale, you can count on the fact that they won't be getting a lot of lookers.
