This is what I have seen

"the fronts are 295/35s, while the rears are 305/35s. The R model gets supersticky Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, sized 305/30 and 315/30"

Its funny that so many Mustang enthusiast awaiting this car didn't take mark ups into account. They really thought they'd get this car for 49k. My buddy is looking to buy one here in the Bay Area, and the dealer wants 20k over MSRP.

Oh those are fairly stick tires. Well the comparison will be a good one that's for sure!

A few people have snagged for MSRP. Honestly though it's only the 2015 that is the issue. Come 2016 models, people will likely be able to grab these for MSRP. This year is a limited run.

There it is poop. You never needed to hide your blue oval flag.

Well, let's just say last quarter was VERY good from a bonus/commissions perspective!

Every new car gets slammed with dealer mark ups. I'm not sure why you think this is a Mustang-only issue. I saw a few Z/28s pushing $100k when they came out. Now they are mostly at sticker or even less.
