Hmmmmm? I am sure the used car lots are reaping the benefits of a few speeding tickets I know I have seen some posts on here where people are paying $2-$4,000 for insurance. It only takes that one good one to put you over the hump.

I saw a used Mineral Grey GT at a local dealer that had been returned due to finance issues...the loan didn't go through as represented, or at all, so the car was returned with 500 miles on it. No sooner had the dealer alerted me to it, a man stood next to it and delcared his intention to buy it. He may as well have licked the door handle to keep other potential buyers at bay.

Hey, that is not a bad idea. I am going to down to the local Ford dealer and lick me some Black Premium GT door handles.

I saw a GT near me, 34 grand.....i feel sorry for the stinker who buys a used GT for more than what a new one will run.

prices are outrageous.
I found descriptions kinda funny though, in how they list what the car has. Many are like this

This vehicle has a 4.6L OHC V8 engine and an automatic transmission. It includes Carpeting, Courtesy Lights, Inside Hood Release, Cup holder, Power Outlet, Two Tone Interior, Dual Sport Mirrors, Interval Wipers, Radial Tires, Vanity Mirror, Map Lights, Tachometer, Reclining Seats, Fog/Driving Lamps, Rear Defroster, Spoiler, Anti-lock Brakes, Traction Control, Alloy Wheels, Power Driver's Seat, Power Door Locks, Power Windows, Power Mirrors, Center Arm Rest, Leather Seats, Rear Shoulder Harness, Bucket Seats, Compact Disc Changer, Trip Odometer, Tilt Steering Wheel, AM/FM Radio, Air Conditioning, Cruise Control, Clock, and Warranty.
I wish I'd gone with the radial tires...

Given the mileages, some of them may be demos. As to the rest? Who knows? Maybe once the novelty wore off, some people found the car not as refined for daily driving as they would have liked. Maybe some found the interiors too cheap. Maybe some had a couple of problems and decided to dump 'em... Who knows?
I'd be careful with these. They are possibly cars that had defects and subsequently could not be sold as new after they were rejected by the dealer. There's a Ford shop near where I live that buys lemon buybacks, program cars and other damaged goods. Sometimes it was scratched or dented on the truck. Other times they have a major mechanical problem. They get fixed and sold as used cars...
