very true and yes its a great deal. but remember this. IF you are trading in make sure you are getting the best for your trade. ive had dealers have a good price but try to steal from me on my trade in and i wound up paying more for the new car but wound up better in the end cause they gave me more for my trade in.

If I was looking for an 11, I would take it. I think when they first come out, the dealers are going to do their usual "add on" due to the 5.0. I was at our local Ford dealer yesterday to see if the brochures were available and one of the sales guy was saying the SOS about demand when I asked him if they were going to be MSRP or they were going to deal.

Are the price quotes as noted binding on either party? If it is to the dealer, then the trade-in is a separate
transaction since it is not listed on the quote sheet.

Yea Yea but when im beating 80% of stick drivers with my auto with a tune because most suck at driving a stick. They just think they know how to drive one. Have taken out Camaro SS with a stick because if ****ty drivers. Just like your **** it may be bigger but it dont mean you know how to use it.

Dude i was just messing around. I get crap all the time for driving a auto. My wife likes driving it sometimes and she does not want to learn a stick so i guess i have to compromise sometimes. Better than no 5.0 at all.

Hey Joe, its Jeff. You get any snow up there like we did down in PA? Its horrid. Anyhow, if they will honor the deal, do it. Like Brian, I don't know why they want to sell a Mustang for under invoice so early in the model year. I know what I am offering is a good deal, and others have said so. What they are doing doesn't make sense to me, but thats the car business for you. Just be aware that they don't try to add things into your deal like after market items that you DON"T want. Its a way for them to get back money they gave up, in the beginning of the deal. Sometimes its hidden in the contract. Just trying to help

Hi everyone. I have been registered on this site for a while, but I generally just read instead of posting. I have driven nothing but Mustangs my entire life, and now I am in the planning stages to get my 2011 and let my 2000 GT move on. I have been reading these post about people getting these great deals, and others on here working for dealerships, that might also offer good pricing. I live just an hour North of Atlanta, and would be willing to fly within a reasonable distance to get invoice or less. My wife is a flight attendant for Delta, so we fly free. Now, I sent an e-mail to Van Bortel Ford, but have yet to hear anything back. Maybe everyone flooded them with e-mails and calls after this post, and they decided not to answer, I don't know. If anyone has a contact there or any suggestions please let me know. In any case, I plan on sending out e-mails to all of the Ford dealers withing a certain radius of Atlanta soon, and see which one will deal. I have my X-plan pin number, but if I could do a little better, then I would look at that since the flight doesn't cost. Any rumors of dealers especially in the Atlanta area that are willing to deal like this one is information I would certainly appreciate. I look forward ro posting more as I move into the newer generation of Mustang, can't wait.

They are in the process of moving their entire dealership at the moment, so they also might be ultra busy at the moment with the move too. Maybe check back with them in a couple of weeks?

Thanks for the replies. I didn't realize they were moving, could be why I haven't heard back as of yet. DarkCandy08GT, I received an e-mail from you regarding getting my e-mail address to send to a salesman at Van Bortel. I guess I am missing sometjhing. If you sent me an e-mail, how do you not know what my address is? I was going to reply back through the site, but it says your not accepting e-mails. Let me know how, and I will be glad to send it to you.

It does not show your whole e mail address. Mine is fixed now you can e mail me. But if you get no response from them give 05fordgt a message.

Wait for rebates
The news yesterday showed Ford is dropping a shift at the Mustang plant. That is a pretty costly move for Ford (Transfering workers, etc). It also shows Ford isn't anticipating a big rush of orders for the 2011 Mustang. This isn't going to be 2005 all over again. Will it launch with rebates? Probably not . . . . . but I wouldn't be surprised to see low interest rates (or $500 rebates within a month of launch, maybe upto a $1000 with 2 months) . . . . . finding a dealer who will give you Xplan/Aplan probably won't be a problem.
In 2005 I had to wait 1 year after launch to find a dealer with a GT on his lot AND who would give me my employee A-plan price (no rebates, no special financing).
But a better question . .. . . who can wait for 400HP!

I bet you lunch that once the car arrives the dealer won't honor that price. I've seen it happen before. Get two signatures on that quote, one being from the GM.
