First let me say thanks to everyone on this forum for all their help and support along the way. I have been wanting the new Mustang for a couple years now but I had to wait after buying a house.
I spent a ton of time at dealerships over the past weekend. I talked with over half a dozen different salesmen. Every place I went, I told them I was looking to buy in the next week or two and I would be buying from whomever gave me the best deal. The only thing I told them was the type of car and options I wanted. I never told them what I was looking for as far as price. I just said, give me your best deal. I played my cards very close to my chest.
I was looking to buy a 2016 Mustang EcoBoost Premium Automatic. I didn't need any other options. I got a couple of decent prices but a some of the dealers were super shady. One tried to put $1,000 of "Dealer Addons" on top of the MSRP. That same place give me their best offer at sticker price. When I said no thanks he tried to keep coming down. I said, "what part of give me your best offer do you not understand?"
Anyway, today I ended up at a dealer that was over an hour away from home. The guy told me he only makes $150 per sale so he doesn't care what I get it for and that he'd give me the best deal he could. He came in well over $1,000 under any other place.
In the end, this is what I got my car for.
MSRP: $31,490
Negotiated Price: $27,345
Frieght / Delivery: $699
Tax/Title/Fees: $1,905
OTD: $30,000 even.
The price came to about $200 more...but I kind of paused when he asked if it was good enough. He said if I drop it down to a nice even $30,000 would you take it. I said yes. I might have been able to get it for a little cheaper...But I was already over $2,000 below X-Plan and under invoice by a good amount. I was tired of haggling and going from dealer to dealer on a broken leg. Anyway, I am now the proud owner of a 2016 Mustang. How did I do?

I never posted my deal. I got a V6 foundry package auto which stickered at $27K for $22K. $5k off. Course I had to trade and got wholesale for my trade, but I'm happy. If Ford can fix my driveline vibration I'll be ecstatic!

MSPR with destination = $33,590
Vehicle price = $29,750
11.4% off MSRP. This was a "fun" purchase. I had financing ahead of time. There was no trade. I asked for quotes from many dealers. Not only did this dealer have the exact car I wanted, the price was by far the best quoted.
Shout out to Ron Tirapelli Ford in Shorewood, IL. It was an absolute delight dealing with them. The internet sales representative, my salesman and the finance guys were great. Zero hassle and completely upfront. This was by far my best car sales experience.
UPDATE! I received the Ford Private Cash coupon two days after purchasing. Even so, they're filling out the paperwork for me to receive it.
New vehicle price = $29,000. 13.7% under MSPR

I just bought a 2016 Mustang V6 MT, as base model as you can get, for a sale price of $21,618 (before any kind of fee's, after all incentives)
I qualify for Z-plan, so the dealer had to show me the Z-plan price, and somehow the sale price was roughly $600 cheaper without using Z-plan. I still don't know how this was possible, and kind of feel something went on in the background that I don't know about, but I'll break it down.
Sticker after delivery = $24,800
Fords current rebate = $500
Dealer Test Drive Coupon = $200
Z-Plan Price = $22,930 - $500 -$200 + $80 Doc fee = $22,310 (before TT)
Dealer Price = $22,318 -$500 - $200 + $250 Doc fee = $21,868 (before TT)
Came to around $23,500 after tax, fee's, temp tag, doc fee.
I went to a couple dealerships and the z-plan price was the same, so I don't think the dealer pulled a fast one on me. I guess it just feels odd that they sold it cheaper than z-plan. Maybe they're just trying to get rid of the base models, or 2016s. Nonetheless, I think I got a good deal.

I got a 2016 base GT magnetic 6MT. After fees, taxes, and whatever BS add-ons couldn't be removed it was $32k.
Pretty happy. Payment went up about $70 more than my 13 V6. They got me out of my car without having to roll in negative equity. I've tried 3 other times in the past year and because of the airbag recall most wanted me to take a 3-4K hit.

$32,465 after 500 military and 500 customer cash for a 16 GT, manual, premium with redline and nav (non-PP). MSRP 38,484.
Can't recommend Koons Ford of Baltimore, specifically Pete Dixon and Tom Snyder enough. Best dealer experience I've ever had, they've definitely earned my repeat business.

I am actually currently shopping between Koons Baltimore and Koons Sterling. Both seem like good people so far and great prices. Glad to hear someone having good experience from them.
Heck you probably saw the car I am about to pickup from them.
