Fair Price

What are the current pricing trends? IS MSRP still a good deal?

Will be purchasing in two days at MSRP. That's a great deal in California.

Thanks. Mine was delivered to the dealer today. I will pick up on Thursday. Just making sure that I got a fair deal.

If you can hold out for a few more months, you probably can get it below.

W/gas prices over $3.00/gal, an SRT-8 getting 15mpg on premium will test anyone's budget (if you commute a lot).

15,who's getting 15 miles a gallon?! I'm sure glad I'm not. You might want to check that 8 in of yours and see if it sprung a leak.

Sorry but anyone who can plunk down near 50 G's for a car doesn't mind the extra 50-100 bucks a month in gas. I know the smile on MY face is worth the extra cost.

I consistently average between 16 and 17 MPG. But occasionally I get a little "fired up" and get about 15!

Gas prices be damned! Fun is too important to skimp on!

i agree with vv90. It doesn't matter what high performance car you buy its still going to use a lot of gas. You can't have 400+ HP with 4 cyl gas mileage.

stang...

must be the Magnaflows...
as in having it in 1,st, 2nd or 3rd all the time...
isn't there an overdrive setting on this car???
heck I saw 7.6 the other day...
that was not over a long period, just tooling over to get the kid from school...
this is honestly not a commuter car...
might start really thinking about that Prius...
