Here is an excellent example of `05 Ford Mustang GT Premium Insanity. I did an online inquiry of local dealers via MSN Auto's on an `05 Ford Mustang GT Premium in Screaming Yellow with every option except the Shacker 1000 sound system and an automatic tranny. MSN lists the MSRP with freight at $27,725 and an invoice price of $25,379.
A local dealer calls me up and tells me he has a used GT Premium with all that equipment, but it is Sonic Blue Metallic as opposed to the Screaming Yellow, so basically what I am looking for, but in the wrong color. I figure what the hell might as well go check it out and maybe save a couple of bucks since it is used with ~ 1000 miles on the clock. Took it for a test drive and the yee-ha factor was so high I no longer cared about the color. The Sonic Blue is pretty sweet looking as well, even though I wanted the Yellow.
Well to make and ever increasing long story short and one want to take a guess at what their asking price on a used GT Premium with 1K on the clock? Answer below for those who want to play the game.
The bastards actually had the gall to be asking $33K for a used car that MSRP's out at $$27,725 brand freakin new. That's right boys & girls $5275 over brand new MSRP on an `05 GT Premium. Now does that take balls or what? Looks like it is time to order it through Sam's at 3% over invoice. Just finished doing up the quote and it is $25,205.00 via Sam's club plus freight and I get the color I want. What a bunch of a maroons.
