the really cool thing is, even though i paid msrp back in november, ford has actually quietly raised the base price by about $700 since then....so i guess i got one for 700 under msrp. i got money saying ford will bump the base price of a gt by at least another $1000 if not more for 2006......and they will still sell every freeking one they can make. keep waiting, bargain hunters. i'm sure it's going to work out fine for you. you can make fun of me once the big rebates and discounts start. no later than march of 2004 if i remember correctly.

2005 V6 Price by lavrishevo

I was able to negotiate my price down to under invoice. I paid 21,100.00 for V6 with the sport package, "leather" and shaker 500. Also had the classic style rims with the spinners on them. Torch red with black interior. Being a rim lover I had to take those off and put some saucy 20" chrome baby's on there. Anyway you got to work it to get a good price. I refuse to ever pay MSRP. But it may also depend on the mood of the sales manager at the time.... dealerships are out to play you so you got to play them back.

05 V6, MMR intake, Magnaflow, 20" Chrome Rims on 245/35/20 Toyo Proxis's, SCT custom tune.

Finally Got My GT by jaykoby

Hey everyone, ben reading this forum since the middle of March. Got scared for a while there because I wasn't sure when I was going to get my GT, but I am happy to say that I finally picked her up from the dealer last Saturday after waiting just over 4 months for the car. Ordered the car on March 3, had a priority of 10, was told at the time 3 months. I kept calling my dealer once a week for status of the car and at one time was told it may not be built and I would have to get an '06. Then around June 20th I got a call saying the car was being built and would arrive on 7/7. Windveil Blue, IUP, 17" wheels, manual, shaker 1000. Absolutley love this car!!! Driving home all I could do was smile and laugh. This is my first new car and the wait was worth it. Now I am in debt for the next 5 years!!! Lol!!! Anyway, just wanted to say that even though it took a while to get the car, I am glad I got it and I cannot rave enough about this car. I love the looks I get from people while driving it, and the sound, man nothing beats the sound!!! For those of you waiting, have patience, this baby is worth it!!!

Congrats, Jaykoby. The enthusiasm goes on and on! Got mine July 7th, and I know exactly how you feel. Enjoy the envious looks, burbling exhaust, and the open road awaits

Ford has had a couple of price increases on the '05 Mustang. I got mine before any of them (knocking on wood). It's not clear what the price for the '06s will be.
 
You can make deals on V6s. GT's are another matter, entirely.
 
fris.....G35s are nice cars. Much different than a Mustang, however.
 
I don't think anyone is going to try to talk you out of the G35. If you've driven a Mustang GT and it didn't grab you, then I'd stick with the G35. It won't be as fast nor as visceral as the Mustang, but you've got that "warm & fuzzy" feeling that Infiniti dealers will give you. You'll also have to pay more for that G35.
 
But, if you're in love with it, that's what you should get.

An unpleasant experience trying to test drive a Mustang GT by ohiocarguy

I haven't purchased a new domestic car in 25 years, but I like the new Mustangs. I recently had a 1970 Mustang Mach 1, and the styling of the new car really appeals to me.
 
I live in the Cleveland area, where GT's on dealership lots are few and far between. I was in Columbus, Ohio last weekend and decided to visit a very large dealer called Ricart Ford. They had five or six Mustang GT's around, so things were looking good. Each one had a $4,000 mark-up on the window, which was not so good, but I knew the mark-up had been $5,000 a few weeks earlier. To cut to the chase, they would not let me drive the car "until we had an agreement on price". I wasn't going to lie to get a test drive. Call me old fashioned, but I thought the dealer should be happy I was interested enough to want to drive the car. Not to mention that we are talking about a Ford Mustang, not a Ferrari. I said I had no interest in paying over sticker, and after the salesman consulted with management he told me they would come down to $3,000 over sticker. If I would agree to that, we could go for a drive. I walked.
 
I know this was the dealer, and not Ford, but it was aggravating. My local dealer has been helpful and will sell me the car at MSRP, and let me use X plan. Just the same, my Mustang excitement took a big hit.

I can also see the Dealerships reasoning in not letting people "test drive" the Mustang. How many people will "test drive" it until it is sold and then how many miles will be on it. The way I see it a "test drive" can be a way of driving a car you want to drive just to say you drove it.

Mustang GT Pricing Experience by chuntington
Jul 22, 2005 (12:57 pm)

I requested several price quotes via the internet on a 2006 Mustang GT just to see if I could save myself some running around. Nope...The best price I could find was sticker. Almost everyone wanted 1K or more over sticker. The really crazy prices where down in Arlington, TX where they have plenty of 2005 GTs, even now. But they're asking 3-4K over sticker.
 
Anyway, I stopped in on the dealer right by my house. He was one that gave me a price of 1K over sticker a couple weeks ago. I sat down and in a few minutes I had a price 1K under sticker! So I placed my order. Should have it by the end of Sept.
 
Ordered a Mustang GT Premium, Auto, IUP, 17" Aluminum Wheels, Tungsten Silver, Charcoal interior.
