not all dealerships are raping.

I forget but there was one that sold their whole stash for the same markup over sticker as a normal GT would go for.

here in cali theyre still in dealer floors, nobody is paying what they want. i went in there when they first got it, they said they had 100k bidders and it would be gone by the end of the week. theyre still in the showroom floor.

and the ECU will only run full boost after a certain amount of miles, or a certain amount of time after a reflash/tune. Tuners have to watch out for this, they tune on the uber rich side because after a bit the ecu will stop bleeding boost and if its not compensated for, it will lean out if the tune is perfect on dyno day but the ecu gives another few psi and few degrees of timing a month later.

Within a few years, you'll be able to get one at sticker easily.

I can't understand why people pay that much over sticker unless they absolutely HAVE to have one or they got a money tree that's dropping a lot of "leaves."

I have never been so impressed with a car in my life. In fact its soooo nice we're thinking about keeping it completely stock. Kind of a collector but still dive it a lot. We got it with 8.6 miles and now has 40.5 on it. I would have pictures but I never received the email from the dealer. We didn’t get there until dark so I couldn’t take any. Plus it’s kind of dirty since it was on the truck. But Ill have pictures of it as soon as I get it washed tomorrow. I don’t even want to sleep but I have to because I have finals tomorrow.

It would definately be greater unless the dealer put a cap on the commission because its managers are greedy
12k over would be an easy 3k deal in my pocket.

I honestly think the Eleanor looks pretty gay.

Also ya I’m fronting it but I’m also driving it. LOL The cars half mine, my dad already gave me a set of keys for it and said be careful with it. The thing is if I would have said it was my Shelby everyone would be bitching because "I’m spoiled".

Everyone has had something good to say but you...hmmm. Somebody Jealous?

Had the car out last night and all I can say is wow. The Car feels great. The shifts are smooth and quick. The only thing I'm still getting used to is the dual disc clutch. Taking off in this car is a little different than a normal mustang.
