Yeah, it seemed too good to be true. But why would you advertise a price for a car, that already has an engine and trans in it, but quote a price for the car without that engine or trans???

I think, because you seem so very enamored with the yellow SPF, that you should inquire as to the final price with engine and trans.
While you're at it, can you ask about the F430's price too?

Well you're, admittedly, pretty savvy about pricing, advertising, and the like. Why would they post the $42.9K price? If I said "remove the engine and trans and I'll take the car for that price" would I still get it?

Touché Patrickt, well stated, lets see how the answer comes back from the dealer, I am betting it will be no.
In the trade such pricing tactics are called teaser pricing just to get the punters into the showroom.

hmmm, sorry guys I have been in China for too long, what in the heck are Troll prices?
It will be interesting when I get back to Phoenix to visit these folks just to call their bluff.
A hypothetical encounter.....
Hi, errr, I'm here to buy that yellow Cobra for US$42,900 that you are advertising, oh, what's that you say, err, I should read the fine print, wow, so you not offering the car for US$42,900, that's the roller cost, and oh dear, so I need add another US$45,000 for the Roush polished engine and what, another US$5000 for the tranny and wait a minute, there's more, I should add another US10,000 for the installation and US$3000 for dealer fees and prep, plus another US$1000 for delivery. Wow, so lemme see now, the new drive away price for this awesome yellow Superformance gem is now up to US$106,200, oh, plus the wheels, yeah, I guess we gotta have the wheels, so I add how much, another US$2000.for the wheels, hmmm so the price is now up to US$108,900, so why didn't you state that in the first place? You see Mr. Dealer, I read your add and talked my wifey into letting me buy your yellow Cobra for the US$42,900 based on the add an that's all I got see, so whadda we do now? Err, what.....steady on........there's no need to say things like that....... what...... the door is where.....yep, and the same to you pal.
Just my imagination folks, I am sure the live pitch will be much better and extremely entertaining.
In any event the Superformance with the Roush and tranny combo will be well worth it to the guy who really wants to buy a turnkey Cobra.
No harm, no foul Mr. Mayor, its all in good fun, but remember you are advertising on Club Cobra and the members are not rubes, state the true price and let it play the course, somebody will buy it.

Now, mind you, I don't know a lot about the art of selling, but even if you do sucker somebody in to the showroom with a fake-o list price how in the heck do you ease them up to a hundred plus grand when they came in ready to drop $42k? C'mon, it's not like getting you to spring for a satellite radio, leather seats and a passenger side butt-warmer.
And the Ford GT prices are in the hunt with other retail outlets. I got my Heritage GT for what appears to be wholesale. Was offered a Tungsten with 4K miles and 35K cash to swap. If he'd gone to 50K I would have done it.

It's kinda like when a new car dealer advertises 0.0% financing OAC (on approved credit), but when you actually go into the dealership and find out that your 650 FICO score doesn't quite get you the 0.0% financing rate. Instead, you walk out with a used car and new loan with 14.9% interest.
Why is "twobjshelbys" still slumming with us Cobra plebians, when he has a FGT now? I would think he would want to hang out with Evan and the other royalty over at the FGT Forum.

I still have the Cobra, although that could change any day now
Cobras are still fun, just wish I had either (1) a three car garage or (2) a wife who liked it. Either case I'd be keeping it but she made it very clear that one garage space is hers this winter.

Another thing that bugs me is when an advertiser blows in here, posts a "drive by" ad, and then blows right out and doesn't even bother checking responses.

This thread reminds me of a proverb........eh, I forgot it.
Oh, now I remember.
The Mayor is from AZ, so everyone in AZ carries a loaded gun. He can post anywhere he wants.

RodKnock, very true, the folks in Arizona carry weapons, thus, y'all don't a second chance to piss em off, troll pricing notwithstanding.

Oh, it's just the scene from The Good, Bad, & the Ugly where Clint says "there's two kinds of people in the world, those with loaded guns, and those who dig." I'm not really sure why RodKnock posted it, to tell you the truth.
