I payed $5k over MSRP. The printed sticker said +$2k, but that was crossed out and $5k was written over it. Sucks, but getting exactly what I wanted by chance made it worth it.
Is this comment based on it being ordered early?

I think the insecure driver to car ratio is higher among Mustang owners. Not a generalization, just an observation.
Yeah, my whole opinion on the pricing is similar. I found a dealer during the preorder who wasn't charging over MSRP so they got my business. If I had known I still would have to wait for about 4 months extra even preordering, I probably still would have ordered it, but it would have been nice to know! Now that they want $5k over for a non-preorder and it's immediately available, I'm OK with it. If it's worth it to someone, it'll go at that price, if not, the price will come down.
About the same time I discovered that I put a 2"x1" L-shaped scratch into my front bumper last week parking my baby in the garage, I came down with some wicked stomach bug that I still have. Coincidence? I think I made myself sick. Some weird symbiotic relationship to the car is telling me I need to repaint the bumper... :( Anyway, don't feel too sorry for me and the car, since I was too lazy to make sure I had enough clearance and I was trying to avoid my '70 Camaro on the other side. Thanks for the good thoughts anyway!
