WTF?????
Also, does anyone know what a good price for an 05 Mustang GT premium with 34000 miles would be?

That dealer is full of BS (and sounds like he's trying to rip you off, to boot, or at best they're horribly uninformed with regards to their own product), unless Ford's own website for the Mustang (under the Build/Price section) which CLEARLY has the Brembo brake package available as a $1695 option, in bold black letters, is wrong, as is my vehicle order confirmation sheet, which also clearly lists it (as 55D BREMBO BRAKE PK), which I find rather unlikely.
As for your question regarding X-plan; I'm not sure I can give you an exact figure, but as an example, on the order sheet for my GT Premium (MSRP for mine is $36705), the dealer invoice was $34266.60 (including $45.60 fuel charge and $486 Ford Dealer Advertising Fund fee [which from what I've heard is basically non-negotiable]). My price would've been $34404.53 under X-plan. Also, under X-plan, the only fee the dealer should charge you is a $75 MAXIMUM documentation fee. So, under X-plan, my particular GT would've been about $140 over invoice if I went that route. I suspect yours (which is spec'd similar to mine, but w/o HIDs and with 3.73s instead of 3.55s) if so ordered would likely be priced similarly above invoice.
However, just my two cents worth, if you do have an X-plan PIN available for use, use it as a last resort if you can't find a dealer who'll give you a good price; after basically getting several dealers in a bidding war for my order, I managed to have a dealer order me my GT for $300 UNDER invoice, and w/o dealer fees. But, X-plan is great if you want to can't find any dealers that want to give you a fair price, and/or if you don't want to deal with haggling/arguing with dealerships, or worry about any BS fees they might tack on.
Hope this helps!
