Found myself a GT350 allocation!!

[Anthony@HTM]

I've been dealing with an internal battle on whether or not to sell my big turbo Ecoboost and get a GT350 or sell it. Unfortunately I saw one for the first time in person and lost that battle.

So yesterday I called about 100 or so dealers, most of which in California.

The best I could find was a 10k markup. The average was 20k markup.

I finally went to search out of state and locked in one at 5k over in writing which was reasonable to me and is only a 6 hour drive from my home.

I ordered just a basic GT350 in white with blue stripes and cannot wait for it to get here so I can take it to the road course!

Now I just need to put my Ecoboost back to stock and sell it.


There are quite a few threads here asking for help finding one at msrp, or finding one in general. After going through this I can say that it's just pure laziness.

You need to put in the time and really call around, it got monotonous but here I am.

This section has been really helpful with tips on what to ask and such so I wanted to thank all of you who put time into posting helpful information!

Yes! Every 2016 I found in stock was either a tech pack or 25k over.


Quite a few dealers told me that ford priced the 350 low so that dealers could make more. I chuckled.

Holy cow, 100 or so dealers?! Amazing to see consistent demand keeping the price up. Great to hear you did well out of state. Good luck with it.

I'm sure that logic would've held up still even if Ford's MSRP was $20k higher.

Awesome! Did they give you any idea of how long you will have to wait for delivery?

Yeah.. No shame.

End of this year or early next year it seems.

I'm not in a rush which is good haha

Congrats! You're going to enjoy the 350 and its awesome inimitable sound!

DAMN congrats!!! what a big upgrade, I just graduated college so I'm several years and pay grades away from affording this but man this is awesome news!
