2011+ Prices

2011+ Prices
For months I've been seeing that people are getting new '13's out the door for upper 20's. I'm getting close to being ready to trade my car in, but I can't even find a low mileage 2011 GT for mid 20's within a hundred miles. I'd prefer to be in the low 20's... I am looking for an automatic (No debate, it's gotta be an auto so the old lady can drive it, biggest motivator for trading) so that is narrowing my field by a lot.
There is a grabber 2011 nearly 250 miles away for $23.5. I'd be cool with spending a day or a weekend to go get a car, but has anyone done negotiating BEFORE going that far away? I don't want to drive that far and get a ridiculous low-ball offer for my '06.
What are prices looking like elsewhere? Even most 05-09's with reasonable miles are nearly 20K around here.

Well prices are really going to depend on supply and demand. I drove two hundred miles for my '11 V6 premium, auto. I called first and started the negotiation on the phone. I was very up front and honest. I told them what I was looking to spend, what I was going to put down (not trading in), my credit score, AND that I was looking at another car in the area. They were not going to lower the price at first but I let them run my credit ( so they were able to see I have excellent credit and don't mess around) and was anlagen to get them to drop the price alittle. I talked to them a few different times, I wanted them to know that they were not the only car dealership I was looking at. I was actually able to he the final price, and interest rate set in stone before I even went down there. Saved me alot of hassles to have everything already taken care of before I got there. I didn't have to sit and play the cat and mouse game "on there turf", I did it on my terms with no pressure.
Good luck!

Nice. I may go through my current lender and get pre-approved, so that should give me an edge. I'd prefer to not throw in any cash though, so I want/need a good trade in.
I'm also getting very tempted to get out of Mustangs and get a Jeep Wrangler. I've got a good local hook up and a Wrangler would be very practical for me.

I've been looking around here for a '11+ here too and not having much luck. There is a 2012 manual, which I prefer, at one dealer with less than 2K miles they want nearly $29 for. Available 6's outnumber GT's by nearly 5 to 1 here. Then they want to give virtually nothing on trades. A bit frustrating.

Sorry to hear about the being whipped part.
Does she tell you what to wear?
Teach her how to drive or find another woman that can.
If she can't drive a stick how safe a driver could she be?
Does she need her right hand to text while driving or something?

Just drove a Wrangler and a 2013 V6. The Wrangler is out of the question now, even the V6 was awesome. I know what everyone's opinion here would be, but I'm even considering a new '13 V6. We'll probably still get a 11/12 GT, but a 13 V6 for nearly $20K and 0% financing is awfully tempting.

Oddly, the V6 in the 2013 Mustang puts out the same horsepower as a 2009 V8-powered Mustang GT! The gas mileage on it is very good as well.
If I do get another Mustang, it is going to be a GT like my other four were. In today's economy, that probably means it will be a long, long time before I get my hands on one. Doh!
