If you paid MSRP, sure. Many got theirs well below MSRP.

Mine was hugely discounted due to a contest I won, but that's a completely different conversation.

2011 V6 is so not greater than a 2010 GT, torque amigo. and i bought my 10 knowing good and well the 5.0 was coming.

To the guy that said no S197 is rare, I agree w/ the guy that proved you wrong. I've not seen a single Super Snake on a showroom, much less on the road. I've only seen one KR on the showroom. And to be honest, I've only seen two '10 GTs on the road that I recall. One was a Kona Blue convertible and the other was a Titanium Silver(?) coupe. I've only seen a handful of '10 GTs on dealer lots. And to be honest, I can't recall seeing but a few '10 V6s. For all I know, it could've been the same ones over and over. LOL

So for the '10 to have only been out there for a handful of months is crazy, I think. I bet the '10 body style wasn't meant until the '11 model year, but Chevy was reintroducing the Camaro for that model year so Ford brought this body out ahead of the powertrains so as not to be left completely out in the cold. Thoughts?

In Spades parlance, Ford cut one of its partners books prematurely by way of bringing the new body style out just a bit too soon. Ford reneged. The '05-'09 body style could have easily contended with the Camaro.

Its all relative.....I traded in my '07 GT/CS Vert on a '10 GT premium Vert at an insanely good deal and intrest rate. I am pretty sure I will be able to go back in a few years and get an end of the model year deal on a 5.0 Vert just like I did my last 2. As long as my payment doesnt go up and I don't have to put any money down I am good, and besides, I get pulled over enough for aggressive driving in my GT.....What really cracks me up though, is all of these V6ers making jokes about the '10 GTs when they know down deep inside they wish they would have went with the V8 when they had the chance....LOL

i dont regret not getting a gt, im perfectly happy with my sixxer. its not that i dont like the power, dont get me wrong. but my sixxer does what i want it to when i want it to. i dont drag race, i only occasionally autox and road coarse, and she does just fine.

I've seen several SUPER Snakes.... 1 even for SALE!!! I went to a local dealership and they have it roped off. Good thing though because i would have droooollled over it. hahaha other than that 1 times, i've seen maybe 2 3 at different cars shows. Pretty rare.
