    Where to buy?

    I'm at the point where I am going to start looking out of state for an 03' Coupe. I've contacted five SVT dealers in my area, and the cheapest one won't go below $3,000 over MSRP. I know they don't give these things away, but I'm fairly sure they can be had for less than $38,000. Can...
