... been a long time since i've last posted. i almost traded in my '01 GT for a new M3, but rightly changed my mind at the last minute
so, yesterday i stopped in at my local Ford dealership (pasadena, CA) to see what they had on the lot. i asked the sales guy to show me to the GTs and he said they only have one. it was a black '06 convertible...
i asked what it's selling for and he tells me 43. i'm looking at the price tag and i see MSRP is around 32, so i say "you mean 32?" -- he says no, and points to another sticker that says $43,870. $10,000 over invoice!? i ask him if he's on crack and say for another 5 grand you can get a new S281, and he replies simply by saying "well you cant find the GTs anywhere, you just cant get them"
so i ask him what the coupes are going for and he says they are "only" marked up 6 grand over MSRP.
have i been out of the game for a while or is this guy spitting some serious BS. can't i customize my 'Stang on Ford, pay the destination charges, and pick it up at MSRP cost???
help! i'd love a new stang, but i'll be damned if i'm going to get raped in the process!
thanks!
