Cool what do you think of this deal.

So its time for me to trade in the 07. originally i wanted a 2012 gt prem w/ saddle interior and glass roof. none were in the area so dealer said they would order it. they got back to me and said that you cant order 2012's anymore but said he built this online

2013 gt prem
glass roof
black seats (saddle not available)
3.55 rear

"MSRP 37880, your price would be 35800 minus 1000 (500 rebate / 500 military) so 34800" are the 2013's that much more impressive or should i just settle for a 2012?

let me know what you guys think. thanks

Well it's really all about what you think of the looks. The GT has basically nothing done to it other than looking different than the '11s and '12s. Yeah, 8 more hp but that's still not as much as an aftermarket tune would net you anyway.

IMO I'd look around for a deal on a '12 since you should be able to knock the price down, WAY lower than $34800. The '13 changes should be a big deal to you before you think about paying that much more.

I think this mostly comes down to opinion. Personally (and I am biased) I would give it a little bit more time and look for a nice 11-12 with the options you want because quite frankly I don't like the changes to the 2013's appearance. Don't take my word for it though, get what will make you the happiest. Good luck!

They are offering much better rebates on the 2012s in houston right now. Last weekend I went and picked out my car and this weekend I will go finance it.... Sticker was 30500 I have them down to 25300 and I havent even began to negotiate the b/s dealership added charges ) Cant wait until saturday to bring her home.

This is not a good time to buy the 2013. There is little difference between 12 and 13. Dealers will priced the 2013 pretty high. Buy the 2012 or wait till summer to buy the 2013

I would look for a deal on a 2012. IMO, I would also recommend the Recaro Spt Seat/ Helical Diff. option for $1,995. This will get you the 3:73 gears and Torsen rear differential.
