Used 05 GT's spotted!
Yep, you read right. I was checking out the car ads this morning, and I saw THREE used 05 GT ads! A silver manual w/red accent pkg.(no mileage listed) $29,000, a yellow (1000 miles/loaded) $35,000 (!!!), and a black auto $30,695 (1600 miles).
Interestingly, a few minutes later, a dealer called me, following up on my car search, and through talking I discovered that he'd sold the yellow one to the seller only two weeks ago. The ad said tragedy forced sale--asking $35,000. The dealer told me the guy bought it for $34,000. Wonder if he'll get 35K? Maybe he hasn't heard of depreciation.
Anyway, for any of you who are waiting for the used ones to show up, looks like your wait might be over. Doesn't look like you'll be getting any great deals yet--all of the prices above look to be at or above MSRP--but later this summer...who knows?

RE: Used 05 GT's spotted!
Went to a dealer yesterday. He had 3 yellow GTs. He said they were used for "demo drives", but were considered "used". All had more than 1,000 miles on them. I don't know how they were demo'd, but since he was selling them used, they had to be titled to someone. He sold 2 of them within the 30 minutes I was there.......AT MSRP....FOR A USED GT!
Go Figure.
Dealer said his entire allotment of '05s were used up. He was taking orders for '06s.....all at MSRP.
