50th Anniversary Limited Edition

I have had it ordered for almost 3 weeks and the dealer has a DORA for it. I ordered blue with an automatic so the wife can drive it. She let me buy a Boss LS so I thought it was only fair she was able to drive this one as she has no interest in learning how to drive a manual transmission. I talked to the dealer this morning and there is no details or pricing out yet.

You ordered a car but have no idea how much you're paying for it? o.O

I've done that with several cars?!? If I didn't like the final price then I wouldn't buy it! :-)

Yep....no idea of what I am paying for it. I do know that it will not be over MSRP and the owner of the dealership said if I did not agree with the final price that I did not have to take it. But he did allow me to order it the way I wanted it.....with only the color and transmission choice it is hard to make a major mistake.

Judging by the Canadian pricing guide it will be $10,000 over the cost of a GT Premium.

Yes, but option it up what the LE has. And it's not $10k difference.
Track Pack=$3700
50th ApPck=$1700
Nav=$800
401A=$2000
PremTrim=$500
You were expecting them to charge less than the sum of its options?
Keep in mind, there are only 119 of them in Canada.

It's less than $3500 difference for an equally optioned vehicle.

I'm not saying it's not worth it. Its more like "wow, that's expensive!". It may very well be a bargain. Just too rich for my blood. I'm probably one of the poorer members on here so I don't even know if I'll be able to afford another premium GT the way prices are going. May have to drop down to a base GT or just stick with my 11.

How is it ordered? My dad works at a large dealership here in Texas and says order bank hasn't opened yet, he can't place orders.

I'm in the same boat! I'm going to be lucky if I can swing the base GT after the few options I want. Spare tire, 3:55 gears and hopefully cruise control. But $1200 for cruise might be over the top.
I priced out a 2014 and I could swing it, but Ford Credit has a great low interest rate on those right now. I'm betting Ford raises the interest on the '15's a point or two to increase the profit on the back end.

This is where I'm at. Anything over 40k and I'm out. Looks like I might be out but in with a 14 GT :-)

Looks like I'm keeping the 12. Might trade in on a focus (gas mileage and cheaper insurance) I know sucks but I will be back in a Stang later.

Not at the same rate.

Sorry for the slow reply but was out of town for the weekend. I am not sure how the dealer ordered it but I was shown the DORA for it. Are they doing thus and holding a place in line when the order books open
