If you're flexible with colors and options, just wait 2026 is gonna be a short year. There's gonna be plenty of leftovers on the ground almond Wisconsin within 100 mile radius of me. Plenty of cars on the ground. Some dealers are asking over sticker although I'm sure they would take sticker if you're qualified Customer and walked in others are listing the cars at MSRP and they not even being sold if the hype was really there and this was an over sticker car they'd be sold in coming. these things are gonna be all over the place a year from now on the ground 2026 and 2027. If you're in a state like California or Florida who's on another planet when it comes to a certain vehicles, I would look outside your area to buy a car who cares if it cost you 2000 I have it shipped you also gotta remember in the Midwest the winter is coming and these things are gonna be on the ground for the winter and they're gonna be paying floor plan on them and they're gonna be ready to make a deal. It's the same old story just like what happened with the Z06 and eventually is what's gonna happen with the ZR one it always does the dealers get greedy they get stuck with the cars.

I agree. If you're flexible on color and options, patience will probably pay off. Once winter hits and dealers are paying floor-plan costs on cars that aren't moving, the markups should disappear and better deals will follow. Buyers in high-markup markets like California or Florida should also consider shopping nationwide - even a $2,000 shipping charge could be far cheaper than paying over sticker. We saw a similar pattern with the Z06, and the ZR1 will likely follow once supply catches up and the initial hype fades.

Put down the AI it's destroying your brain.

Put down the AI, it’s destroying your brain” is one of those lines people throw out when they’re half‑concerned, half‑trying to get a rise out of you. The fun part is you can answer it without getting defensive and still make your point.

A clean, confident comeback could be:

“My brain’s doing just fine — I’m using AI as a tool, not a replacement.”

If you want something with a little more edge:

“If AI were destroying my brain, I’d be unstoppable by now.”

Or something playful:

“Relax, my brain’s still in charge. AI just helps it work smarter.”

If you want to tailor the tone — sharper, funnier, more diplomatic — I can craft a version that fits exactly how you want to come across.

Another consideration is this car on average is 20% to 25% more with the base options than a GT500 was you're getting into different territory there that plus the fact they're gonna be building more. They have an engine Union contract all the way through 2028 there's only so many buyers of over $100,000 cars that aren't looking at other brands. Another thing everybody is overlooking is in 2022 interest rates were 2 to 3% not 7% on a new car add all the factors together yeah if you're a heavy hitter and you want the limited edition with all the options you don't care you're gonna buy the car but you're not financing it just like I ordered a C4 S 2027 Porsche if I have to finance that car I shouldn't be buying it and I also know what it's gonna be worth in three or four years because I've owned many other Porsches that plus the fact they're making less gasoline cars in the future

And as far as the dark horse and Mustangs go in general, there's still 2025 dark horse Mustangs brand new on the ground, even with handling packages.

Thanks for making my point. Cheers!

All the C-8's that are $100K cars are in another league. Sooner or later they will sell. They aren't all over the country stacked up at dealers and Facebook Market Place like most S650 Mustangs. There's at least 10 or 15 Dark Horses in my immediate area for sale. I see a few 60th Anniversary 2025 models out there still holding the lot down.
Check the Kelly Blue Book on your S650...Oh Boy!
