$4K how did you come up with that number?
It was shown on my sales agreement.
I paid cash so I guess that I received a larger discount since I didn't need the 0% financing.
Afterall, I first found the car that I wanted on the internet. Then I drove over early last Sunday morning to see the car (when no salesman were there). The car was exactly what I wanted.
If the 011s are going to be what everyone is saying then that's what I'm going to go with. That is when I can get one used for under 20k.
That is true. New cars depreciate in value. It's a sure thing.
If the rumors are true, there will be a long line at the Ford dealer. I remember when the first GT500 guys paid a lot over MSRP. Then the GT500KR guys paid $80K+ for the same car that is now the 2010 GT500.
I'll be glad to sell this car at $18K as soon as I can get a Coyote 5.0L Mustang for under MSRP. That may be 3 years away.
In the meantime, I will be driving this car very hard (you may just want to buy a garage-queen).
Then, of course, the new 6th generation Mustang is supposed to come in 2014 (if you believe the rumors). All those (proposed) Coyote 2011 Mustangs will fall in value.
I plan to buy all of them.
