130A + 18G + 14A = $$28,750. MSRP
So sez Ford @ http://www.fordfreedomsale.com, except for the grand prize winner(that would be me). Look at paragraph 3 of the official rules...

That price seems way too expensive

Those upgrades add almost $3000 to the sticker price (which we know is under $25,000 for a basic GT). I don't think so.

I've always noticed though that the MSRP on prizes in contest are always way higher than the actual prize.

(notice on giveways for TV's, other vehicles, etc.)
