Two of the models I will be looking at this weekend are 2011 leftovers. But they will need to take off a lot more than they have so far if they want my business. One is 70% and the other one is 73% of the MSRP.

Shoot, that's a good starting point for 2012 models. :-)

UV damage is worse on sitting vehicles than many miles. Just ask me... we had to replace practically new tires due to them sitting uncovered (on our pick-up).
The date on the side of the tire just tells you when they were manufactured. You have to figure out for yourself how long they are good for. What kind of weather were they subjected to and what kind of surface they were sitting on and if sitting for two years without moving would weaken them too. I think covering tires or shading them from direct sunlight will help protect tires.
