OK, got the beast home. Runs like new and still has the new car smell BUT, I hit a small bump and the rear end bottoms out totally. I mean really bad. I have had opinions from "bad shocks" to "bad springs" and another one "they all ride like that". I need some serious advice on this issue. Personally I think it's the shocks that have gone bad from sitting so much over the years (14,412 original miles) and have lost their umphh. Email me some serious advice to busric  hotmail.com so I can get past this issue. Other than this one issue, the car runs and looks like brand new.

As any 9th grader should be able to tell you, the price of any merchandise is determined by supply and demand. Ford has sold between 140,000 and 180,000 Mustangs per year going on 10 years now. Thats a lot of cars! For comparison, Mercedes Benz only sold about 240,000 units all models combined in 2006. Mark. |

2007 GT Convertible approx $34000 sticker. I'm figuring less $2500 to get to invoice, less $2000 rebate, another $500 discount, 3% holdback...plus it's an 07, its end of year, it's a convertible and it's winter, etc. Can this car be had for $28000? If not, where do I start? I'm in Philadelphia area. Thanks.

$28,000 sound pretty close man. Mark. |

Replying to: ckone0814 (Dec 15, 2007 11:55 am) Nothing could be further from the truth because cash denies them the ability to make money by handling the financing. While it's possible that you might hit a store at precisely the right time to get a fantastic deal (example: they're one unit away from hitting a bonus), your earlier reference to them giving you their holdback and $500 seems to me to be unrealistic.

Replying to: cccompson (Dec 15, 2007 7:10 pm) Yes, I'm beginning to realize that I'm not going to get the car at the price I mentioned. I feel confident that my local dealer is at their bottom because a few other dealers (whom also don't have the car) told me that the price I was given would be the same as what they could do. All told me the only dealership who could do any better would be the one who actually had the car - because only they had access to the holdback and may (or may not) dip into that holdback to sell the car. Basically, at this point all anyone is willing to do is invoice less rebates. On a 2007 that just does not seem to be enough to me but...I am also beginning to see that what I'm looking for - 2007 GT/manual/conv is pretty rare (as others told me on CS). In fact, a competing dealer told me flat out, "It's the exact car you want at a good price. It's an awesome car, go buy it and enjoy it. If you play around too much you're gonna lose it". I also get your view on making money back on financing - I though that would be the case.
