[QUOTE="Purvis, post: 2577358, member: 29683"] On a car thats already going to depreciate extremely fast from its MSRP, (as seen in every other Cobra to date) paying ABOVE MSRP makes about as much sense as lighting your money on fire. For instance: If your NEW Shelby GT500 depreciates about 20% in the first year (typical for a low miliage Cobra).. And the MSRP was 40,000 You've just lost, in the first year of ownership, $8,000. (this is in addition to the monthly payment that you are paying to own the car by the way) However, if you were stupid enough to pay Above retail.. Lets say for example, you paid $5,000 above retail.. The depreciation in the first year of the car is now $13,000!!! (because you lose the markup since demand hos now equalised by year's end) And you've barely driven the car.. Thats a depreciation of about 32% in about a year's time.. :whine: Its Funny and sad at the same time. :dw: [/QUOTE]
