I finally demodded my mustang so I went to my local dealer to test drive the only sport in my area. Needless to say, it wouldnt start and it went downhill from there.
Salesman says its from sitting and I tell him no cars battery should go dead from sitting and it must have the ACM issue. Of course he wasnt aware of the problem, but he reiterated it was from just sitting.
Now the test drive.
The car drove nice and it had better pick up than what I thought it would have. Wind noise was minimal with the roof open and the nav was nice. I did feel the hesitation of the transmission, but I think the tune will take care of it.
Now onto the fun part, pricing and it went south from there. They low balled me at 20k on my trade, then the salesman tried to tell me the MSRP of 36450 after rebates was dealer invoice. I told him no way and they had at least 2k to play with, then I showed him several cars online with the same options selling for 31k. After an exchange of words, I told him we were wasting each others times and I walked.
No Im not giving up and I plan to head to Illinois sat to look at another one.
