Hi all, I've been here off and on, looking for months to possibly buy a Ford GT.

So, long story short, I'm not up to date, but now the interest has come up by local dealer, the exact car I would like to have, in Tunsgton grey, with all options.

160 k seems ok, but is that the going price?

I'm sure I could research the posts here and come up with all sorts of info, but probably need to move rather quick on this, so please help me with the lastest and greatest info on pricing.

Clearly, these cars are going south on price, but, on the surface, 160 on a full MSRP seems ok, but are there better deals to be had?

Thanks.

Bill

Prices within 5k north or south of MSRP are the average at this point. It really depends on how bad the dealer wants to move it. Some dealers are still getting excessive premiums, others want to move them badly. I'd say 160k is a good price to jump on at this point :thumbsup

Bill,

As you are likely aware, there will always be a better deal. However, I would think that $5K off a Tungsten car that is local in stock would seem to be a very legitimate deal.

Ditto, $160 K is dirt cheap, especially since it is local and you don't have to pay thousands to have it transported to you. Jump on it, and welcome :banana

Great deal. You have a dealer ready to move the car.

Sounds fair from the 7-dealers I have spoken with! (all regarding Black cars - full options)

Best deals - without negotiation (and over the phone as I'm UK based) were MSRP (NY State based dealers).

There were some that were still looking for + $5,000

One in a middle state that was askig for $199,995

And one person who thought I must have fallen off the turnip truck, who was asking $300,000 for a MY06 car with Heritage paint :rolleyes

I'd also agree that if it's a car you like, $5k off MSRP is a good deal :thumbsup

Run, don't walk to your dealer and BUY IT NOW! I hesitated and lost a car. Glad I found another. You will not be disappointed!! :biggrin

You are so right Gordo. Their's one thing about this car that shouldn't matter and that's money. Anyone who can afford 160 can afford 165 or 167 or whatever! It's the privelage of owning one that should matter, the color and options one desires should be what matters, not the darn money. I wish all the threads regarding cost would GO AWAY!!! Sorry, I'm just tired of reading about it and do not wish to offend anyone.
