$15K over MSRP.

Are we allowed to bash the GT500 here or should I take it over to Tech?

Let the dummies pay over sticker/soak up the problems during the first year. Then get it below sticker for the second year run.

Default Friends are good things to have.......

Got my GT500 ordered, 1st on my dealer list, below MSRP. Nice to have friends in high places.

I can remember in 2001 there was a Cobra at one of the local Ford dealerships sitting on a rotating display. I looked at the price tag, $7500 markup!!!!!! On a fugging 01! Im sure whoever paid that is PISSED now. The 03's around here were bringing $7500-$8000 markup but there were still people paying less than MSRP on them. The new ones are gonna have an insane markup just like the new Z06's!

I talked to three differnent dealerships, one in roseville one in san luis obispo, and one in hanford california. Both roseville and slo said they had the first ones on a list and they are going for $100,000, only the hanford dealership said they were not selling them before and that they did not have a price on them yet.

That is ridiculous. But then again you can go to Ebay and bid on a pre-order for the car. If you win the auction for the pre-order you get to buy the car.

I'd say about a $12k-$15k markup will be average.

I work at a Cadillac dealership and when the XLR first came out there was a $17k markup. A 320 hp Cadillac two-door selling for $92,000.

Of course someone still bought them. Rich people just want the newest thing because no one else has it yet.
