One positive side effect of the auto industry experiencing such a low sales
volume is the incredible deals you can find on a new car. Manufacturers have
already pulled out the old tried and true incentives of employee pricing and 0%
financing, but we've never seen a deal like this before. Galpin Ford, which
bills itself as the #1 volume Ford dealer in the world, is offering the 2008
Ford Mustang GT for the bargain bin price of $18,995. The dealership says it has
come across 40 models of America's favorite muscle car from a "performance
fleet" and is offering them at nearly 1/3 off on a first come, first serve
basis. We don't know exactly what "performance fleet" means, so be sure to check
the odometer and ask what these Mustangs experienced in a prior life before
buying. Their original $28,160 MSRPs have been knocked down by Ford's own
employee pricing deal, an additional $2,500 rebate and Galpin's own discount of
$3,794. If you're interested, you better act quick as there's sure to be big
demand for such low priced Detroit iron while gas is still below $2/gallon.
