Just wanted to clarify so it didn't seem like my comment was a 'whine'.

Do I think the prices are outrageous? No I believe they are on par with what the car has. That doesn't change the fact that it still isn't 'comparable' to a Mustang (as far as price is concerned) as we were led to believe.

Can I afford the SS2/RS? Yes.

But add in other items I want (Auto, Sunroof, GFX, Accessory Grille) and it goes just a bit higher than I wish to pay AT THIS TIME.

Given an extra few months to work OT that won't be such a problem. But a $40,000 car before taxes will still be a crazy monthly payment even with the $15,000 I have to put down currently. I think I'm going to need at least $20,000 down to get where I want to be.

It's quite disappointing that I'll have to wait another 6+ months longer than anticipated though...
