Damn what a let down, I was expecting a comparison against a C7 Z06. A new Maxima probably drives better than his C5 Z06. At the beginning of the vid he's standing next to his C5 Z06 in a still photo.

Definitely take that as a compliment. Anybody that looks young and drives a car that has more exclusivity will usually receive the comment on age. The same holds true if you were driving a corvette, BMW 750, or Ferrari. Hopefully if all goes well in life the older you are the more...

I don't think it makes a difference if the ZL1 had 300 more hp than the GT350. GT350 will outsell the Camaro on looks alone so no I do not believe ADM/demand will go down.

Sounds like the dealers that can afford to hang onto the cars are sitting on them hoping that they will be discontinued in my '18.

If you can get the car at MSRP you're not getting hurt. You can basically test drive the car for a few months and then unload it without losing too much money.

Just saw the updates after I posted. 9k from the receiving dealership means 15-20 markup to the customer. I hope nobody buys it. Anyway glad to hear your fiasco is over with. Onto the next caper.

If they're holding your deposit back on purpose then make sure you get the full amount refunded. If there was a friendly dialogue about you paying for the return shipping and then having the balance refunded back to you then no problem, give them some money. But at this point it sounds like...

Wow you're getting a 2016 GT 500, sweet!

It's already been stated that the FPC engine is only slated for the GT350 so why would there be a commitment to improving it if there is only a two year run?http://www.autoevolution.com/news/ford-to-upgrade-the-shelby-gt350-s-52l-voodoo-v8-develop-new-transmissions-101972.html

If dealership A has a higher Mustang sales volume then dealership B then they get more allocations as well as quicker deliveries. I purchased mine from a large dealership specializing in Mustangs in mid Oct and the vehicle was delivered at the end of Dec. I have a friend who left a deposit a...

In my opinion you keep both if you have the financial resources and garage space. Keep the R under wrap as an investment and have fun with the regular edition. If that's not feasible and you have no interest in keeping the R as a long term investment then you're on the right track of selling...

How difficult is it to remove the wrap after a few years and does it affect the paint? Will the wrap do any damage to OT stripes?

That's quite a tidy profit at MSRP. I never even heard of dealer hold back until you mentioned it. When I was shopping for the non R GT350 all I kept hearing from my salesman was that it was a great "investment opportunity." I just laughed and asked him if Ford was going to stop making them...

Can somebody post a video of the sound? It's something to be concerned about but it could be standard operating procedure for the vehicle.

15-20k right now sounds about right. I was offered one at 10k ADM back in October. 2017 MY is a go so there will be additional R allocations in the upcoming months but the most you'll save yourself is 5k. I don't believe any dealership will go below 10k ADM.
