BTW, 16,000+ units over 2 years isn't exactly "limited production."

The smart shopper will wait till the feeding frenzy is over and easily pick one up for MSRP or less.

Initially, these cars WILL bring a premium. In a few months, they WILL normalize. If you still have cars and want to sell them sans markup, drop us a line.

"Note these are base prices and because they are limited production unites [sic], they WILL bring a premium."
It seems the only thing that is NOT in "limited production unites [sic]" is dealer greed and BS...
While I guess calling them "base prices" could be correct, I thought they were MSRP, i.e. the "suggested retail price," as in the price that Ford says these cars should be sold for. But I guess "base price" and "suggest price" are really the same thing, right...right...cue sarcasim music...

Interesting that out of one side of Ford's mouth it is telling the public that it doesn't want the dealers to charge AMVs.
But out of the other side of Ford's mouth its telling the dealers to go ahead and charge AMVs.

If, as 1Bullitt suggested in another thread, you were here to sell us a car at MSRP, we would all welcome you with open arms.

I can't wait for the day when we (the average buyer) will be able to walk into a dealer set our own price and I can garuntee that alot of us will want them cheaper than MSRP if for no other reason than to teach the short sighted dealers a lesson. Once those cars are on the lots not selling..just like the Ford GT's are.. then the dealers wont have any choice but to knuckle under and take the sale at a possible hit to the wallet. Just like they are trying to do with us now.
Seems to me that in the end the people that wait wil win this war.
It's pretty funny, I bet than anyone here who is serious about buying a GT500 would happily pay MSRP for one and wouldn't even argue over the price.
Such short sightedness..but why are we suprised at this? Dealers have been doing this for years.. Charging us a premium for a nice car then denying warrenty claims and such. It's like a big con job.
