Limited Availability Charge - $2500

This is the sticker that I saw on all the Mustang GTs at a local dealership. $2500 was added to the sticker price of each one. Are you kidding me. Are people really paying this? :eyebulge: I bet this lot had 20 GTs on it. Didn't look too "limited" to me.

I stopped in to see Carlos Medina at Gary Yeomans in Daytona when we were there on vacation a month ago- he had 11 gts in a row, and a bunch more sitting around...he sells at msrp, and is a genuine 'goodguy' in the business by all accounts Ive read. If you are in Florida, dont even think about getting gouged...theres a lot of big dealers down there, I'd heard one was still doing x plan, but dont recall the dealer...good luck.
I was out messing around today. Not in the market for another one. Just couldn't believe what I was seeing. I didn't know dealers were doing this kind of stuff. BTW...I actually did travel 4 hours North and buy mine from Yeomans last May. They were the only ones I could find that would sell for X at the time.

I have yet to figure out why what somebody else pays for a car is such a volitile issue with other people. It's like a game to see who can pay the least for the car. In my world, I don't worry about what others pay, I go by "If you're willing to write the check, the price isn't too high." Don't you think that the ones who pay above MSRP for a car, know that they have almost a certain chance of losing that amount when they sale the car? It's their money, for heaven's sake, they can do with it as they please.

The only reason I can see for worrying about what some one else pays, is either, 1) it's your inheritance they are spending, 2) you will be paying the notes, 3) it stops you from being able to buy it. If it's none of these, "Why care?"

I would bet, when the time comes for you to sell your car, you will have the same opinion as the dealer.....sell it for what you think it is worth. If one thinks they can get more than blue book, they usually try....if it doesn't sell, then the price starts to come down.....just like a dealer. I would never call any one "greedy" for doing that.....it's a capitalist country we live in.

The same game could be played for modding out a car....not everyone is going to pay the same prices to get a car modded.
The reason I mention I paid X-plan price for my car is to give potential Mustang buyers hope that they don't have to pay inflated prices. When I first started looking I couldn't find anyone that would take under sticker for the GT. I was told over and over that no one was doing X-plan. I was almost ready to give in because I wanted the car so bad. Then I found this board and discovered numerous people who paid below sticker so I knew those dealers were out there. That's when my real search started and I didn't give up until I found what I was looking for. The information on this board saved me over 2 grand on the price of my car and I hope my success might help someone else out.
