So ... my mental treading water exercise at the moment is, shop a '14 at a discount or do a '15.
As we're heading into fall in the mid-atlantic.
I've talked to a few dealers on cars so far regarding '14s.
Examples are, GTSs with the $15k reset on MSRP plus another $13-14K discount, this is on 3 I was interested enough to call about.
For easy math, let's say were all originally priced at $128K (pre 15k reset), now talking about $99K or less, and one hinting he could do better, that was his first discount offer.
On a TA, they're talking in the mid $90s, I didn't push on that one hard, just that they started at $99, I pushed a little and a few grand fell off immediately, so I'm thinking ...
Versus:
If I do a '15, I have a local dealer I talked to Sunday who said he'd order one right now for me, discounted off MSRP no problem. How much, he said we'd have to sit down & I didn't have time yesterday, following up today. But, if I did a TA 2.0 and he did just 5% off, that's like a $99.9k price on a TA 2.0, which seems killer. Or if I did a GT car, in Silver, plus aero, I'm even a little less and in the high $90's. (If I order I want the 5 mode electronic system, so TA or GT)
So, how much of a bargain buy do you think it'd take to make buying a '14 "smart" vs just ordering the '15? God knows I'd love to have the fall to play with it, but in 60-80 days it'll be hibernating for like 3mos.
I kind of feel like if I can do a car for $10k less now than it would be as a '15, then it makes sense, if it's close to what I'd order. I dunno, seems like a tough call since I keep waffling back & forth on this.
When will we see ordered '15s make it to buyers driveways?
Thx
