1low was right
I do believe 1low was right (I agree with him 99.73% of the time tehehehe) when he stated Mustangs are becoming to pricey for the average fan. A couple of weeks ago a dealer brought a new 11 gt convert to our Wed night cruise in and the sticker showed a price of 51,500.00.
With next to nothing down the monthly payment would be approximately 900.00 per month for 5 years. To put that into perspective our first house we had built in late 1998 ran us 750.00 pit so the car is 15% more per month. When we moved to Windsor in 99 we purchased a house and pit ran roughly 600.00 per month so the Mustang now is 30%ish higher.
Today I stopped in at Metro Ford and low and behold they had a new 11 GT500 (all black no stripes=hot) for a low low price of 64,500.00 plus the 3000.00 in taxes for a total of 67,500.00. That my friends is 18-19,000.00 more than I paid for a new 09 GT500 1 1/2 years ago. I will say the car does have 50 hp more and handles better but 18-19,000.00 worth, I am not sure the difference in money is worth it.
Oh there is a Chev dealer north of Calgary (Airdrie) selling a new 10 Camaro SS loaded with the Boston Acoustic stereo and they are asking 43,000.00 which seems like more than fair.
Is 1low right that Ford pricing is starting to get to the higher end of the pricing scale. I am starting to think that they are.

I don't get it. At the ford.ca site I can do "Build and price" with the following;
Base GT Coup - $39,949
GT Brake Pkg - $1,700
Security Pkg - $350
Interrior Trim Pkg - $500
Heated Leather seats (incl with Interrior Trim Pkg)
Next gen nav system - $2,300
Total MSRP= $44,749
Which has some very nice options! I'd skip the nav system myself but threw it in because maybe the dealer's had it in it.
It looks like the dealer's out there are making some serious markups! I haven't priced one out here yet but it looks like they are trying to cash in big time with the new arrivals.

Excellent deal on the '08. I paid the same amount for the '08 as the '05 and the '08 is a fully loaded vert.
Financed the difference on the loss of the trade-in.

Yea those prices sound INSANE. Prices like that might drive potential pony buyers right into the arms of a Camaro or Challenger salesman. I know it would for me .... it supposed to be bang for your buck. Now don't get me wrong, I love my Mustang and I love what Ford has been doing with the Mustang over the last few years, but with dealer prices hovering at $67,500.00 ($19,000.00 more than 2009 GT500's) - we'll that's when I start shopping for a 600 HP 2008 Dodge Viper with roughly 16,000 kms on it.
