Not to mention you are all asking WAY over sticker for used cars you are trading in. Paying a couple over when they are giving you WAY over sticker for the new car is like having your cake and eating it too.
The only warning I can give you is the hard lesson that first year buyers of anticipated cars always learn years down the road. The market will adjust back down to normal. And when it does, the car you paid over sticker for will be worth a lot less than what it would normally and you are going to be in a serious negative equity situation. Those poor saps paying over sticker for mustang GTs are going to be hurting. Ford used to sell those for holdback and with rebates on top. That will return when stock comes back. And it will.

Ya, they have to be hurting. I can't imagine you have 20 cars on the lot when the lot used to normally be full with 200+ new vehicles. Lots around here are empty. I sure am glad I'm not in the vehicle market right now. I can't blame the dealers for trying to make more money on the units they do have. It's no different then anyone on here selling their Camaro for the inflated used car prices.
