I wanted a GT500 in 07 but the dealers all lost their minds and tried to gouge everyone. Then in 08 I had a dealer offer me one at sticker price which given the circumstances was still just a dealer trying to hit a big lick.

Finally in 09 I was able to buy one as it rolled off the delivery truck. It was still in the wrapper and I got it for invoice minus the dealer holdback. Turns out it was a blessing in disguise as the production numbers for 09 were less than half the 07 or 08 years plus I got a car that was built with the upgraded clutch and flywheel assembly so it will not need the TSB done on it.

I just looked at a 2007 GT500 red with black top vert. The car has 1400 miles, one owner, etc. etc. This guy got gouged hard and paid 10K over sticker when he bought it. He offered me the car for 32K and although I will regret it I passed on the car. He sold it a week later for 32800.00 and was very happy to get it. He says he lost over 20K on the car. That is why you never ever pay those jacked up ludicrous prices for these cars. A lesson he learned the hard way.........
