80k average for 2013 GT 500!!!
This is based on searches on autoblog, etc. There is no way i would pay this much for a Mustang, even though our cars costs as much. Am I being objective or subjective?

Just depends on what you want/like. I'm sure there are GT500 owners that think we are crazy for buying these underpowered German cars.

That's markup as they're new for this MY. Loaded at $60k is an absolute bargain for 650bhp with full factory warranty. 'Stangs aren't my kind of car, but I can't think of many other brand new cars costing less than 70 grand that would put bus lengths on an M3 in the 1/4....

It's all dealer markup. I optioned one out and it was still cheap for what you get

never paid MSRP, much less MSRP + markup, for any car in my life. not about to start.
that said, i am super intrigued by the Shelby. i'm fine with waiting out the initial rush and then if i'm still interested, i'll see if people are ready to deal |

Thinking long-term, I suspect the Boss 302 or Shelby will be worth a lot more 25 years from now (vs. the M3). Therefore perhaps it is a better investment. But I would rather buy something to enjoy today vs. keep for value. |

Wow $80K is about what I paid for in total for my 2013 e92 M3 ZCP DCT that had a $76K MSRP plus all my mods which include an ESS 600 supercharger plus an Akra slip with catless mid pipe and a progressive meth system). So for $80K you can get a new M3 built exactly how you want with likely similar acceleration numbers, track capabilities much better daily drivability/looks/appeal and you aren't settling on anything....oh, except I guess the warranty. lol.

Lol... In Canada it's completely different. Before I ordered my 2013 M3 I went to a Ford dealership and negotiated 4k off MSRP for a new GT500. I told the sales guy I would wait till road tests came out and then decided on the M3 again in DCT and I absolutely love it. Feels so different from my 08 6MT M3. No regrets here

I don't understand why dealers think the 2013 shelby deserves a mark up. I believe Ford has said that they are going to make as many as people want therefore not limited production.

I feel sorry for the suckers that pay this. At the end of the year Ford will be offering X plan for these cars. Its like 2007 all over again when the GT500s first came out. To me I would take a Boss over the GT500, a better drivers car and put the left over money in my pocket.
I love Mustangs..never would I pay even MSRP for a GT500, fully loaded they are just under $70k. You can get a Boss for MSRP and have much better toy. Dave
