I'm not defending Ford, sounds pretty crappy. I can't say that I've been in your spot, I generally privately sell my cars or trade in ones that they offer close to the asking price or market value.
That said, a few things --
As employees, we pay the frieght. Unless it says somewhere in the advertising to the contrary, freight is not included. So if it is true "Ford Employee Pricing" then the freight is extra.
What the salesman told toy about Ford Credit is true. They finance NEW cars; not used cars, not partially funding upside-down loans. They're not a bank. They're an extension of the manufacturing arm, they give you a break on the financing in order to sell a NEW car.
FWIW, my advice would be to either:
a ) sell the car privately. Pay off the WRX, take a small bank loan out if you have to make up the difference, and get a new vehicle; or
b ) keep the WRX to the point that you aren't upside-down on it, then trade it.
Seems like a lot of hassle to rush in and get into a high-rate loan.
Either way, you should contact FOMoCO if you feel they're jilting you; make sure you have names and such when you call.
