If you read the old threads, you will see that a number of people paid MSRP or slightly over, and there are dealers selling them for sticker which means they are making about 3k + holdback.

I called my local dealer to check delivery status - been waiting a week now for a car sitting at the railhead 40 miles away - and he mentioned that could never match the deal I got on my drop ship order from NJ, ~$2K over MSRP. He said that all 8 of his dealership's T-birds were marked up for $10K over. They're sold out and he's looking for more.

Now he could have been applying ego strokes [tell the customer what a smart deal he'd made] in hopes of future business, except for the fact that this outlet deals almost exclusively in fleet sales and has virtually no parts or service department, ergo, I won't be coming back anytime soon. So I have to think he was being candid about the going rate in Northern CA. Cars really are selling at MSRP+$10K or better here. How is it then, that cars are being sold for significantly less elsewhere? Has Ford's no-broker policy really had a chllling effect on price equalization?

If anyone is interested in a new T-Bird call me. I can sell the car to at a more fair price than most of the Ford Dealers are selling them for. I have delivered 36 so far.

Beverly Hills Ford (california) ran an advertisement in the L.A. Times a couple of weeks ago looking for Thunderbirds. I think Ken is the Manager. Otherwise; I would start calling dealers noted in Orange County. If they can sell there cars at $10k to $15k over MSRP; I would think they would want to buy as many as they could get. Good luck.
