A Ford dealer I've talked to a number of times about Mustangs just called me a few minutes ago. Seems he is getting two Shelby's and one is already sold. He offered me the second one (supposed to be white with blue stripes) for a 'very generous and fair price' of $51k.
I asked him what MSRP was and he said with shipping it's supposed to be ~$41k.
"So you're marking it up $10k then?" :nonono:
"Yeah... most dealers are marking them higher than that; we think this is a generous and very fair price."
"So, IF I did want to buy this car, what do I need to do?"
"Just come on in to our dealership, put down a $10,000 (YES - he asked for $10K!) non-refundable deposit and the car is yours."
"I'll get back to you..."
Sheesh.... sound familiar?
