ALL GT350/GT350R LEADS, ALLOCATIONS, DEPOSITS [READ FIRST POST]

Honestly, I wouldn't bother. Looking at their website, they falsely are jacking up the MSRP by including the 10k markup, so that's already starting off bad.

Good point. So I see some in MI, CT, IN. If they are available would MSRP even be possible to offer at this point? I live in AZ and the R’s are $10k ADM’s.

Thanks for the heads up! Team Ford is who’s got the R. Don’t bother?

I'd offer MSRP and let them know you're a serious buyer. You never know... If you're specifically looking for Grabber Lime, your options will be limited.

All I can recommend is shopping in states that have harsh winters, cause if they are truly interested in moving inventory, they would most likely would be more open to budging.

Awesome. I appreciate your help.
I imagine offering anything below MSRP is only suitable for straight 350’s (Non R) at this point correct?

Smaller dealers seem to want to work with folks the best. I ordered and received my GT 500 in January from a small dealer in Iowa and my 2020 GT 350R in August from an even smaller dealer in Indiana. Both at MSRP. It's maybe getting a little late in the cycle to snare a 2020 R at MSRP but possible. You have to be looking all the time and not be afraid to offer MSRP. It's not necessary to pay ADM if you are willing to do the leg work. ADM and the sales tax are gone the moment you drive off the lot and depreciation begins....triple wammy!!!

Great post! How are you liking the R vs the 500? Just looked at a 500 tonight here in Phoenix and they said they likely can’t even do a $10k ADM, as they are asking $30k. Unreal...

Is that dealership in Iowa expecting anymore 500 allocations that I might pursue it my R search doesn’t yield what I’m looking for?

Thanks for your help input!

Obviously two very different cars and I enjoy them both. For me, I'd say the R is more fun to drive but the Gt 500 has so much power I haven't even begun to experience it's potential and probably never will. The 500 never fails to get a thumbs up and looks from other drivers...the R not so much but I actually prefer that. Send me a PM and I'll give you the Iowa store. One more piece of advice re: your search...deal with the owners or GM's. You'll rarely get anything out of the sales staff. Good luck!

Team Ford has both a 350R ($10k ADM) and a 500 CFTP ($20k ADM). I saw them on the sales floor while I was waiting for my GT to get serviced. The R is beautifully understated while the CFTP is in-your-face.

Thanks for all of the comments guys. I also have come across a 2019 New R with a $5k markup. I’m sure this thing has sat for a long time. Would anyone advise against pursing a 2019R if they are at or below MSRP? Since I’ve been out of the GT350/350R scene for awhile I just don’t want to get myself in what seems like a good deal only for those with better situational awareness saying “WTF did you buy a 2019 for?”

As always, thanks for your thoughts.

I would have thought you would be between invoice and MSRP on a MY2019.... I’m shocked to see an ADM on that car.

And that’s regarding a 2019 R correct? I’ll call them tomorrow and let them know I got $67k burning a hole in my pocket and I’d like to give it to them.

Yes, Was writing in red rice to an MY2019 GT350R

No worries! Thanks for clarifying. Any objections on pursuing a 19 at this point? If they play ball I personally feel like it could be a great find.

That will not get you anywhere. They don’t care if you have cash, they actually want you to finance some of it. If their willing to talk, closer to the end of the month is when they need to move the “unit”. It’s not a car to them, it’s a “unit”!
