This is exactly whats going on. Fords not going to lower prices and screw dealers or themselves. When 2017s are off the lots, then well see the real pricing.
That was my conclusion as well. I would even drop the Performance Pack. That was already lousy value but $2,500 is simply retarded. Just get a base without the PP and nanny packs, upgrade it with 101 and you have a pretty decently equipped car that's almost $10,000 cheaper. It's insane and all due to Ford's rediculous option pack strategy that forces buyers to buy all kinds of crap they don't want. They already had that strategy in place for many years, but this time they have taken it to the next level.
Well that $52k has a lot more and better options than your $36k car. Plus that $52k is not not price, not MSRP which doesn't include the extra that you pay on top of that. Idk I made a premium auto with black accent package(because of the rims) and 3.55 for $41k net which I don't think is bad. The pp and magneride isn't worth it to me, but I did do it again with the options that you said and only come out to $45,649. Here try again with this URL using the x-plan. http://shop.ford.com/build/mustang/...018|1|1.|400A.P8C.....COU.MST.~YZKAA.GT.PRE.]
Yeah it has a lot more options by far but that is what I would trade in for or else it is not really worth it (I already have spent about 5k or so on mods as well). I only really want the gauge cluster from 18+ cars but it will just cost so much. Unless someone want to give me $25,000 cash then I will gladly make the trade. A lot of 18+ owners are going to be offended by people who do not trade up but for some it is just too much money.
Agreed. If I was in the market now, I would take the SS1LE over the similarly equipped Mustang. I do believe the 1LE still comes with more (HUD, forged wheels, Recaros, e-Diff etc).
the 20's aren't available with the GTPP set up,only the black pp wheels or the nickle plated ones that have a 90 day wait-late available time
Well, yeah. Curious to see what happens. They can only push it so far. In my personal opinion, they're going to sell very few of the cars over $40k. I don't think they will sell until they're highly incentivized and on the lot for a long time. At the same time I think dealers are going to be ordering a lot of the "sweet spot" cars from $30-40k which are usually loaded out with stuff people don't want. So I'm guessing there's going to be a lot of EB premiums with stripes, etc etc for $35k that people aren't really going to want to buy, either.
