RE: Should I Settle???
My personal opion is that this time next year is when the deals can be had. For example my local dealer has 2008 Mustang GT's MSRP $27k marked down to $19,999, (the v6 Mustang is $15,999). I think that is something like $5k below invoice, clearing out the 08 inventory to make room for the 09's.
The Challenger is such a neat car and a icon they should sell very well for a while, then everyone that has to have on will have one. Demand will drop off, especially since it is a somewhat expensive car. By that I mean one local dealer has two R/T's, pretty loaded, MSRP $37k. Now, that is alot of money to alot of folks, especially with the economy what it is, those cars might sit for awhile.
The problem is, who knows what the world will look like in a year.
YMMV
