You guys seeing massive markups?
Just as the thread title states. I'm curious if most dealers are still marking up the car (and if by a ridiculous amount, 15%+) or if only a few dealers still do that. IIRC the Hellcat wasn't marked up but correct me if I'm wrong.

Not around here. Check out www.tricountyford.com. They have two S550's listed and both have a no-haggle internet price which is about $2000 less than sticker.

In general, I'm not seeing much of a mark-up if any.
In the small towns of Central Texas, most S550s are selling for around sticker price (according to what the dealerships actually put on the windows).
But in the big cities, the dealerships do put some mark-up, but the highest mark-up I saw was only $250 over; hardly a mark-up.

We just got our first one at my local dealer, and no mark up, sales guy said they wouldn't come down, and felt confidant that they would sell it for MSRP.
Was standing outside talking with a different sales guy and getting ready to leave, when first guy comes and says they would drop several thousand off if I was serious about making a deal.
But after sitting in the Recaro's, I decided they are not good for fat middle aged men, but the car is beautiful, and the Ruby Red about stole my heart, I will have one.

I have not seen any markup here in Florida.

Bought my new mustang about three weeks ago. paid right at msrp for it they wouldn't come down. and i wouldn't go up. LOL.. had seen a few around town at some other the down town dealers and they were way over priced. just keep in mind that a 15 GT premium almost fully loaded is like 40k. A base model with a few little options is at 34k. the price is up but not too bad.

My '14 GT base (AT) was $28k, and included the tech package.

Some dealers are selling at fair prices and some are marking up. Sorry, but I don't love it enough to pay markup. I saw a GT track pack for $35k and change and I've seen base a GT for less than $31k. I've also seen GTs for over 40k that weren't Premium models. Saw a m
