I just picked up my 2017 RR GT350 Monday from Day Ford in Monroeville, PA for almost $5K below MSRP. It was 9 months old (49 miles) but still. They were great to work with.

The two GT350s available at Pruitt Ford can be had for MSRP. Talked with a sales manager yesterday. BTW, Orange Fury is a beautiful color.

@Dr. JL It appears they will be sitting on them for the near future....I don't understand why dealerships drill holes into the front bumper for plates. They should let the buyer decide if they want it or not. It's a pain to fill the holes, paint, and reapply stripes.

I hear you. Unfortunately, front license plates are required in Texas.

Had new a 16 GT350 and 17 GT350
Also any dealership that really wants to sell cars won't drill for front plate until car is sold. Cause a lot of people also buy and take back to another state. Not everyone is going to tag the car in state they bought it in. Duh!!

I lived in Texas for years and never had an issue regarding a front plate on any of my Mustangs. Anyhow, like I said, best not to drill holes into any car and allow the customer the option of deciding if they want the front plate bracket installed or not. There are other methods to display a front plate that don't involve drilling into a front bumper.

Front plates are required here in California, but the majority of dealerships know better than to drill the front bumper on a GT350.

Picked up my new 2018 GT350 from Beartooth Ford in Columbus, MT yesterday. Got an amazing deal and the staff were fantastic. It's an old school dealership, not one of those automall style places. Felt nice to support a local, small independent place.

They still have an 18 lightning blue if anyone is looking. Ask for Randy and say Paul sent you LOL

Laurel Ford in Windber, PA sold me my 350 at msrp in a handshake deal over the phone in January ‘16 when the 350 craze was REAL.

Good thread! Will be surprised if any dealership from Houston will get to this list
One if the sales guys at Helfman had a GT350 they were willing to sell at a "good deal", but probably not at MSRP. I don't think I could even pay MSRP for any car. I'm too cheap.

I was wrong, they are willing to go $2k under on it. 18 GT350 at Helfman Ford. See Trent.

So this thread may be a bit misleading. Dealers that don't charge ADM's currently and those that didn't charge them when the GT 350 first came out are a totally different thing. Anyway good info nonetheless.

I call each dealership and speak with the GM of Sales before I add them to this list. I make it clear we're looking for dealerships that never charge ADM and not dealerships that are not currently charging ADM. I warn them if they say they don't charge ADM and end up charging ADM (bait and switch) the people on this forum and elsewhere will not be kind to them online and it's not worth the hassle. I caught a couple of dealers with this approach and when I mention they will get bashed online if they bait and switch they quickly say "Well, maybe we will charge ADM depending on demand." So, I hear your fear and I have tried to ensure this is not the case.

Let's put together a list of Ford dealerships that don't charge ADM. I'll edit this post to include the dealerships members mention below.

I'll start first:

The Ford Store Morgan Hill - Morgan Hill, California

Roanoke Ford - Roanoke, Illinois - Thanks @GTthree50!

D-Patrick Ford - Evansville, Indiana - Thanks @honeybadger!

Mel Ervin Ford - Chesaning, Michigan - Thanks @dwalker!

Don Gasgarth's Charlotte County Ford - Port Charlotte, Florida - Thanks @ameapm2000!

Pruitt Ford - Burkburnett, Texas - Thanks @FP350S!

Marshall Ford - Marshall, Texas - Thanks @Tflong24!

Avalon Ford - St. John’s Newfoundland, Canada - Thanks @RMOORE!

Day Ford - Monroeville, Pennsylvania - Thanks @Mystic_Cobra!

Richmond Ford West - Glen Allen, Virginia - From the Ford Shelby GT350 Owners on Facebook.
I certainly understand and appreciate your intent but suggest that you need to take your list one step further with respect to ADM's for GT350's versus GT350R's and suggest a list for dealerships who will honor MSRP pricing on a GT350 and another list for dealerships who will honor pricing for a GT350R.

As we all know dealerships that get an allocation for a GT350 many/most of them probably will not get an allocation for a GT350R and the dealerships that do get allocations for both cars certainly price these cars very differently in almost all cases.

If you compile two lists as suggested there is no question that you will find that the list of dealerships that honor MSRP pricing for GT350's will certainly out distance by along ways the dealerships that honor MSRP pricing on R models.
