For only 1700 miles you did good on a convertible IMO.

Looks awesome! You probably could have only paid a few hundred bucks less if at all, so I'd say you got a pretty sweet deal. I would just hope that particular dealer was responsible in the use of their demo cars.

There's a Vapor silver GT/CS 'vert at the dealer I got my car at with everything but navigation(has shaker 1000) and MSRPs for $39,350 and they're willing to work it down to $26K & change, so I think you got a great deal, btw the Vapor GT/CS i speak of has under 20 miles on it, too bad I'm not a 'vert person............

As long as you understand that with a demo car, there's always the possibility it was driven like a rental. I'm not saying it was a rental, just that it might have been driven like one. And we all know what that means. I was considering a demo for my wife until I did a little research on Google. Most of the time you're OK, but especially with a high-performance car there's a chance it was beat on. Those 1700 miles could be hard ones.

I agree with the comment about the car being as valuable as you think it is. But regardless, for a car that's considered "new" that is a good deal. I got a used 2008 GT non convertible with 4k miles for just over 20k. So you definitely didn't do bad on your end.

the owner of the Ford dealership said it was his car and it's in a small town where he said he wouldn't want people see him beating on his cars.On the other hand when I get this car I will beat the s... out of it myself .I will try not to but I won't be able to help myself.
