I want a Mach 1 and I have been waiting since I sold the Shelby in summer 2021. I'm not paying $60K for a used car that MSRP'd for that same price 2 years ago. Not to mention $60K for a Mustang that has the same motor as a GT is insane (but I want to pair the Tremec with the 5.0!). I'm crazy, but I'm not stupid. LOL Stopped at my local Ford dealer to see the 2024 Mustang in person. Saw a Darkhorse with an MSRP of $64k. WTF?!?!?!?! That's some serious money for a Mustang that runs 12's. What in the world is happening?!?!?!?!?!?!
But to the OP's point, people are asking crazy money for cars and other goods right now. I wonder what the difference is between asking price and actual sale price. I saw a Mach 1 on Autotrader that was for sale for $58K but the KBB on the same exact page showed that the retail value was $52K. Obviously KBB isn't always accurate, but that's $6K difference.
Recently?
That’s not a terrible price assuming it’s not an actual shitbox.
I was looking at 16-17 S550s during rona and I watched them climb and climb. There were premium GTs going for at or above original MSRP when I stopped.
Things seem to be correcting a little on those cars now in my area. Still more than I want to pay for another toy though.
That's a handling pack car...nice!Buddy has a 21’ Mach1 with 4600 miles on it.
No idea what fair or good pricing is

Looks like elite interior from the picture...prefer Recaros but elite is good too. KBB says private party sale with El Paso zip code is around $47K. Again, KBB isn't always accurate. I'm just gun shy about that price point for a 2 year old used vehicle.
You are at a much higher price point than this but I've been toying with the idea of buying a 5.0 F150 (2018+) and selling my V8 4Runner.
No matter how I shake it out, I keep coming back to keeping said 4Runner despite it having 146k on it. That 2UZ V8, A750 Aisin transmission and AWD/differentials are just bulletproof at stock hp levels and it does what I need it to do.
I’ve been on the hunt for an MT-07. People want $8,500 for a bike that’s $7,899.99 new. Makes it hilarious that it’s stock and has no mods like exhaust, etc.The used dirtbike market is the same. I love how people want payoff which is well over msrp. Someone took out a loan from hell. I just sold my little crf50f. Guess I'll be riding my bicycle for a while.

I don’t blame you. Def seems like we’re at the peak or maybe just rolled off the peak.

Love the Tremec in the 350 but the low end torque is nonexistent. Love the 5.0 in the GT but the manual trans is poop. The Mach puts the Tremec and 5.0 together, plus it looks so so good. Beats the 2024 aesthetically by a mile!Love me a Mach 1. These are truly impressive in person. Procharged these are the shit. Want.
I mean there was a time when 5.0 Foxbody's were being bought new for 16k~Stopped at my local Ford dealer to see the 2024 Mustang in person. Saw a Darkhorse with an MSRP of $64k. WTF?!?!?!?! That's some serious money for a Mustang that runs 12's. What in the world is happening?!?!?!?!?!?!
Let's not even talk about the Dark Horse. A GT is over $50K. Who in the hell can afford one? Or the better question is, who would want to stretch their budget to get a GT? No thanks. I think there are compression issues with Ford. There isn't enough distance between the GT and DH price-wise. I stood in front of a new GT premium that also had the performance pack and it was $55K. The DH next to it was $64K (the DH is 16% more expensive than the GT). When I bought my loaded 2006 GT it was $28K and the 2007 GT500 checked in at around $45K (the Shelby was 60% more expensive than the GT).I mean there was a time when 5.0 Foxbody's were being bought new for 16k~
10 years later, loaded NE GT's were almost in the 30k.
Dont see it surprising being almost double the price 23 years later on a Mustang that's a tier "above" a GT. Sounds about right going by previous increases throughout the years.
Checking on previous years, 06 Premium GT's with options were around mid 30's. Not saying you didnt get your's for under 30k, just saying these were the prices before the deals/rebates set it which for the most part are non-existent nowadays or not as good.Let's not even talk about the Dark Horse.

You may be correct. I got mine for $28K but if my memory serves me correctly it was during a time when Ford was going crazy trying to sell them (I think I got 0% for 72 months and a bunch of rebates).Checking on previous years, 06 Premium GT's with options were around mid 30's.

Going back to 1990 vs 2006, 16 years later, thats practically a 80-90% increase. Going back 2006 to now 2023, 17 years later, also about 90% increase. Sounds about right.
