Wow... Having the right to be the first person on the block with a Challenger is going to cost.

I feel sad for anyone that pays ANYTHING over sticker. (EDIT: I feel sad for anyone that pays sticker too.) On a side note I seen a 2005 Mustang GT used the other day for $23,000. Unless they are simply being very unrealistic, I bet they're trying to get out from under a markup. Seriously, You can get a GT new for $26,000 if you pay sticker. I bet once you're done haggling you'd have a new GT for the same price they wanted for that car.

You know, I cant really believe people will pay above MSRP. WOW I mean i dont understand it .Even though we do all the talking here, I guarantee you that we will have some one on this thread saying how much they paid above the sticker price. THis phenomena is not only applying to cars, but gadgets, for instance the iPhone 3G. I mean I was dumb enough () to stand in line for four hours to buy a phone. WHen I got home, I saw iPhone Prices on eBay and my jaw dropped when i saw bids as high as $1000. I hope I have the patience when Camaro comes out in 09 so as soon as I get a great deal, I just go for it.

I wonder if they are marking them up by a lot just to keep them in the showroom longer to draw in the foot traffic.
