You guys seeing massive markups?

50th anniv models are for sale in the high $40s here. One dealer had a listing for $66k last week, and now they have it dropped to $48k. Lol. Buyer's remorse anyone? I could get a used GT500 or a Boss (with cash left over) for the latter amount, and a nice used Vette or AMG car for $66k.

They need to make a little money to stay in business.

My ruby red premium GT msrp was $38.7k, but they had it marked down to $36.4k, with a Black Friday rebate. That's why I snatched mine up. I was originally looking at a base model at a different dealer and they wanted me to pay $2k over sticker on the base GT.

I'm wondering if it's the less successful dealerships that mark their cars up to make some extra money to make up for the lack of normal car sales??? Because, the place I bought mine is a very popular dealership with many different lots all over eastern Pa, and they had mine marked down $2k. They have a 50th Ann. package GT that isn't marked up at all. Some dealers are desperate to make money and others aren't, I'm guessin.

If the local dealer 20 minutes away doesn't have the right price, then I have a lot of dealers within an hour's drive. I'm east of Dallas and have bought a couple of cars in Denton 60-70 miles away.
One thing I have found with used cars is that internet pricing is often much lower than prices marked on the windshield. With my wife's car we walked in and paid the internet advertised price, which was several thousand lower than stickered. It was fair and there was no back and forth. One dealer said they would give me a "really good deal" and knocked $1000 off the sticker. Problem is, we had already seen the internet price which was $3000 cheaper.
