2. I really kinda get annoyed by people who buy a rock at price X; then three months (or one day or one weekend or one year) later they see that the rock is now discounted and selling at Y. And they get upset. And not just upset, but livid PISSED enough to demand a refund of the difference off the original contract they agreed to (a rock at X price). (No, I'm not a lawyer; but yes this falls under contract law.)

I guess I'm just not that guy. Those people annoy me, but it's not a judgemental thing where I think less of that personality; just that I don't do that.

3. I also like that the price dropped, and that was my first comment to a coworker, as it puts the base model close enough to other cars to be a thought for the consumer (Focus ST, FRS...).
It's not a rock it's a car that cost me my hard earned money. It's rare that a car company sells a model for $3K less the following year so the price difference caught most people off guard. If most had the foresight to see this coming they would have waited, I would be willing to bet you would be on that list. It must be nice to piss away whenever you feel like it...that's how you roll, I wouldn't know the feeling.
