I bought mine a few weeks ago from a forum member. Car had a little less than 2900 miles when I got it. Considering the market I think I got a "good" deal, still paid more than msrp though (not by too much, pm me if you want the actual #). Had all the options so msrp was ~54k and it was stock. Original owner had it delivered to the performance center, drove it to TX and added very few miles after that. I feel lucky really that it was local and exactly what I wanted (may have prefered white, but I love BSM).

I am surprised how active the market is frankly. Seems like a lot of people bought one just wanting the new cool toy and are deciding to move right along. This may be why so many are priced so high, people are trying to recoup the ridiculous premium they paid to get one from a dealer (just a guess). And, I guess, people are still willing to pay a lot for them. I am comfortable with what I paid because I love the car, it gives me joy every time I get behind the wheel. But too much more $ spent and I could have ordered something different brand-new that would have given me joy too.
