Is this a base GT with leather? I cannot figure it out. Looks like aftermarket exhaust, what do you think?

Your purchase price isn't great but the trade-in is unbelievable. I'd say your net cost is not too bad. If you like the car, it seems like a fair deal.

leather wither aftermarket exhaust..
The reason I asked my question is, for the exact same price, I got, from a ford dealership, my 07 roush stage 3 vert. If you are looking for power, a blower aint cheap... but i got one right off the bat. Same price just a little older but, Roush and gt500 owners baby their cars so mine was garage kept and with 17k miles.

It's a premium 400A with the 19" wheels, comfort package, accessory package #4 (scoop and wing) and 3.73 gears. It originally stickered for $36,430.

Yeah, that is a bit high since I can get a 2012 GT Premium @ X-Plan pricing for about that same amount... Plus it's NEW, and still qualify for the $3000 rebate going on now.
If you aren't already an MCA member, than I would join so you can qualify for X-Plan pricing.

Does it really even matter that they have the car priced high if he is getting a high trade in value? They just offset each other don't they? I mean if the car was priced lower then they would probably offer a lower trade in value. It would basically end the same right?
I mean it sounds like a good deal to me (although I know very little about buying cars). I mean you will be getting a newer car, probably better if not the same mpg and a better platform for mods.

Finding a black on black is hard in GA. Franchise dealers will lower the selling vehicles price because that's the salesmans commission and offer lower trades. That's generally how it works. I did find a white CS for the same price, but don't want white.
