Wish you didn't do it over MSRP, but like you said, you had to do it.

Well now it's yours so go enjoy it.

Is that 69 Firebird in the garage the same color ?

Nice.

Congrats! Nice car. I would have spent that $2000 on more tires after i burned those off, but I guess it was worth it!

$2k is better than $5k which has been the regular markup at dealerships in my area!

Nothing to feel sorry about....if you can afford it...buy it!

You think a guy/gal who buys an Aston Martin or a Rolls Royce Phantom/Coupe' is gonna say sorry...enjoy your ride....
Good Looking car.....

I cant say anything about what you paid. I have been looking in my area and if there was one I liked I would have picked it up over MSRP also. Problem was that most of the cars in my area were either colors I dont want, options missing I wanted and not a 2SS RS.

I wish I could only have to pay $2K over MSRP!

Here in Cayman we have to pay 40% on duties on a vehicle that has a value of $35K or more. That works out to $14800US approximately plus shipping.

My final price from my dealer is $44K (Cayman dollars) in US that is $52,381.

That sucks but I have to do what I have to do!

Dealers marking vehicles up over MSRP are a result of people willing to pay it.

It's a vicious cycle and will never end until the community puts their foot down and simply says "No thanks."

I will congratulate you on your car, but it definitely comes at an expense to the car buying community.

the hypocrisy on this board makes me sick sometimes.

on one hand we're kicking down dealers advertising cars for over MSRP, on the other hand we say "oh well, congrats" when somebody actually pays more than MSRP.
