At $115k+ I'm with you guys build my own. A factory racer has appeal but if 50 units made you aren't going to get one. A miata is 30k a mustang gt is 38k. Global mx5 miata racecar is $55k the GT should be closer to $65k IMO.
If you buy a new 2017 GT full sticker at $38k put triple JRZ's, AP brakes, cage, fire system some ancillaries you are under $55k! Your build sweat equity at least $5k off that.
The cayman GT4 is $165k. The bmw 235i was another 100 unit thing unobtainable $85k euros. A mustang should be way cheaper.
I'm pretty sure Ford is not making these FR350's fast. The winning pro racers like Pheonix and Kohr are doing the trial and error and telling Ford what to do. I think guys like Kohr are doing something very similar to what Ford Racing will do with the FR350. Kohr will take a BIW (body in white) and build a mustang racecar seam welding and all the rest.
