ford going out of business ? dream on...and pigs can fly, right ?
many of the cars for sale are looking for the high 'add on' dealer extra margin gross...and if they get it , then fine. otherwise, many of those cars will be tucked away somewhere for future value appreciation/speculation. my guess is many of the dealers dont care if they sell or not as they plan on hoarding them for the future. others who want to sell will lower their asking price re extra margins...just like we saw with the vipers, prowlers, even the pt cruisers. they try to get the big deal early on, and over time lower the price to more reasonable rates when the public says NO DEAL at 100k over or whatever it might be. many many other new cars have experienced this...higher demand early on and then it tapers off. so will the trend be with this car.
remember, many dealers will not get one, some will not see their car for months yet, so to them it is still a hot new car. over time, that too will dissipate and the cars will be at msrp levels.
bill.
