Default Is this a good deal

My wife just got her masters and we are looking to get her a new car. I went to the Navy Exchange and saw that they had a 5.0 for sale here in Guam. After speaking with the salesman we priced a brand new 5.0 gt premium package with the leather Recaro seats and the track package (brembos and 19" rims) for $35k not including sales tax or registration.

Chime in if you think it's worth pulling the trigger now or if I should wait. The other thing is that I can only get this deal while deployed overseas.

If it's a 2013 that would appear to be a good deal.

Edmunds has a 2013 with those options going for $37,248 right now for a stick, and $38,346 for an auto for true value.

Here is the true car for what you're looking at as a 2013. Again, looks like you're getting a pretty square deal (36,623 average for stick, 37,643 for an auto).

Good point. I was only looking at 2012. I *think* up until 2012 only the Stick had the Brembo package AIR from Nordy Racer.

I'm not sure if it's a 2013 or 2012. It will be a GT Premium 6 speed with track package (Laguna secs radiator, 3.73 gears, brembos, and 19" rims). I'm ordering it from the factory and it would be delivered late August. She like grabber blue!

If it has the Recaros as an option, it's a 2013.
