    I just checked ebay. If you type"2005 Mustang" in the search feild, the first vehicle has acurrent bid of >$21,000. This is not the sale price. Read the fine print at the bottom. It says that this is the price ABOVE MSRP. The Msrp is 27,650. Anyone who is willing to pay over 48 grand for one these is out of their mind. I hope they realize the 21,100 is not the purchase price

    Hopefully people who are paying in excess of $20k, are smart enough to read all the fine print. Then again, I guess the top bidder's either stupid for not reading the fine print, or they're stupid for paying $20k over msrp. Either way, they're stupid.

    I am pretty sure that auction would violate some Ebay rule of not properly identifying the true cost of the bid... for all you know, MSRP can stand for "my super ripoff price!"
