03 vs 02 GT

jbruno · 05-17-2002, 05:49 AM

I'm looking at purchasing a Premium GT . I went to Carsdirect.com and got a price of $22,295 (MSRP is $25,015). My question is, when the 03's come out will I be able to get a similiar price or is just because we are near the end of the year? How close to MSRP should I expect to pay for an 03?

Also, I originally thought about the satin silver with the grey interior, however after see some GT's up close, I really liked the mineral grey and charcoal interior. It especially looked cool with the premium wheels. Do you know if mineral grey is going away in 03?

Thank you for your input.

$25k is about what you'll pay for an '03 Premium GT. I think Mineral Gray rules and it should be there in '03 but if not there is a new color called Dark Shadow Gray and it looks almost the same but a little darker. Just go to a local Ford dealer and get a color availability pamphlet. Sonic Blue is cool. Saw it on the '03 Cobra Coupe showcar.

I like the Sonic Blue too. I bought a 2002 GT coupe that color. I have been teased it looks purple, but I like the color regardless.

Given the rebates right now, go for the 02. No real changes set for 03, therefore, go with the 02 and save $1,500. I've ordered a sonic blue prem GT vert. Sonic blue is really an 03 color, however, its being offered now late in the model year. Can't wait to get the car.
