I am shopping for an R and the issue is finding an allocation and a dealer willing to deal. I think MSRP is fair but at the same time you can find 18's under sticker and I am sure leftover 19s will be the same. I am sure there is dealers out there with an R allocation that will discount but the...
Thanks for posting these Tomster, I am holding out for an Orange. Was disappointed early on you could only get the orange on a non-R for the first model year (think thats accurate), with it available now on an R its my calling ;)
My current and last car has cup tires, I daily drive both cars in rain and cold weather (35+) and haven't had any issues. The only time it was hairy was doing a track event where it decided to rain in the morning, I did get a lot of car control practice in :D Of course you have to be conscious...
Last I spoke to the dealer this car is available and the price is accurate, roughly a ~13K ADM on a GT350R

I have heard only good things. Hoping they do a Dominion Raceway event. Been doing PCA (like), and NASA (meh) events, I do want to try Chin and Trackdaze.
Yeah I remember that, some dealers had them marked up initially but some just sat and were sold at a discount. Fun how time changes when no one wanted to pay that kind of money for a Ford and now with the Ford GT they have an application process and a list of people willing to dish out 400k.
I am sure the car will holds its value well but past MSRP? All the examples show retained value near MSRP. The only recent Ford I am aware of still selling above MSRP is the Ford GT (minus the current GT350 market).
Different car but the GT3/GT4 from Porsche which are Cup 2 equipped get around 10k miles on average. I had 6k miles with couple track events on my GT3 with about 40-50% remaining. Of course there are a lot of factors in play that +/- the wear rate and some tracks chew up tires much quicker then...
