Seems to depend on the city. My dealer in Dallas hasnt had any for a while and wont for a couple of months.

I looked at the Houston Dealer (Star Motor Cars) and they always seem to have 3-4 new ones and 2-3 used ones on the lot. The news ones seem to be going for MSRP.

Unless you order one and have to put down a deposit, I dont think you should have to pay any markup over MSRP.

talked to dealer in NC today. 3 available. Pricing at most MSRP. Did not try to negotiate. Trying to decide between 997tt and Aston.

Well, i test drove one and right off the bet they said they would take 5k off. My friend wanted to see if there was more flexiblity, so he asked them was that the bottom line, he said no. if you were ready to buy they would sure work with you and get you a better price. I think the dealer having 4 in stock and few on the way was pushing them out a bit hard. Also keep in mind most of the cars were optioned out to about 127k, which is about all the option you can get on the car. Starting @ about 110,000. They are getting a white one in soon, i want to see that. The car and the price is very tempting but still you are at about 120k give or take. It's not pocket change for me. :-(

I love the car.
Get one Kumar!

Im waiting for my dealer to get a demo so I can test drive one first. They are supposed to be getting one any day according to the salesman Im talking to. I wanna see if I can handle having a car with "only" 380hp. Im a bit of a speed freak.

Otherwise, Im looking at the Ford GT.

I think Raja and I are talking about the same dealership, but it's pretty much A) expect a discount on cars in stock and B) no markup on an ordered car...

A lot of buyers are backing out once the car arrives... I almost bought one but went for the Carrera S instead.

These cars are depreciating at a vast rate - buy used with a couple thou. on the clock and you'll get a cracking deal...

True, This summer I saw a Maroon AMV8 with only 2,700km of mileage that costs $125,000 whilst a new one starting at around $140,000.

Even with all the options, a new one doesnt cost over $130k American.
