Just got a call from a local dealer that heard I was looking for an 03/04 GT Vert. He called and told me he has an 03 Centennial GT Vert,never titled sitting on his lot. The list he said is 36k. He says the have it marked down to 29k and then take 4k off that. That's 25k and after tax/title it's 27,200 out the door. Does this sound good?...It sure sounds darn good to me! I really like the fact that only a little over 1300 of these were made in verts. Rarer yet is that only 717 were made in the GT coupe centennial. I'm going up there tomorrow morning to get the ball rolling. It's all going to come down to interest rate since I have a firm price. Wish me luck...I just have a feeling though this is too good to be true...and you know the rest of that sentence,lol.

25K for an 03 GT 'vert? Whew, sounds high to me. I've seen (used) 03 Cobra 'verts for under $30K.
I'd offer him $22K....tops.
The 100th anniv edition is not worth that much of a premium over a regular GT.

Run it's value through KBB.com as a used car. Regardless of the fact that it's never been titled, it's a two-year old car the second you drive off the lot. Even worse is the fact that it's black and has sat on the dealer lot for 18 months or so. The paint may have some damage.

You will love the car. I drive one. One of 1323 built.
I bought mine with 7000 off sticker in August 03 though.
Sticker was 31K.

It all boils down to how you feel about it. Do you want to wait for the new ones or not? I say go for it. Try to talk the dealer down a little more. Tell him you are doing him a favor because you like him and wouldn't normally do this for just anybody. The ball is in his court then. Either way, try to have fun when you go there. Don't let him pressure you.

taking the kids is a GREAT ploy, gives you a built in reason to take a hike at any minute. I really like the centennial version. If you keep it in good shape, could be a real collectors item some day
