Drove by the local Ford dealer today and they had a new GT in blue/black and a GT 500 in red/white out front in the blazing hot Maui sun. Well whats the MSRP on the GT $165k or so.................not on Maui....you can take her home for only $450k !!!!!! No shit $450k!!! The GT500's MSRP is what $45k..............well on Maui you can have her for a steal for only $90k!!!! :dontknow: Dont know what to tell you fellas, Maui isnt cheap and the Ford dudes really want to bed ya over!!!


This is why I have shipped my last to vehicles in from the mainland.............its way cheaper!!! LOL

Print some listings off of Ebay and put them under the windshield wipers at the dealership.....

Ford GTs can be had for under sticker now....

Thats a good idea.

I had one salesman whom tried to tell my friend that it costs $2500 to ship a car to HI. It actually cost $950. They are ruthless here. When I bought my 10 from Woodhouse ($44k), they were selling them for $59k here!! Crazy!

Damn, that's absurd! If you've got that kinda money, I would think you'd be smart enough to figure out that you could probably get it for just a tad cheaper. :dontknow:

A lot of times, the big dealers keep those cars on the lot for "traffic" vehicles... You will see the same GT sitting on that lot in 2 years. But, in 2 years, they may just want sticker price for it.

Buy one from MI and have it shipped.

Yup.........but most people are lazy and have no patience. So they overpay all the time here, instead of internet shopping.

It was such a big deal to the local dealers that they convinced the state legislature that when people buy a car on the mainland they should still pay sales tax, even though it was purchased out of state. So now when you ship a car here, you must prove you paid sales tax or they will charge you 4% before they let you get it licensed. Such BS
