My GTD journey

[The Demon]

Oh wow, that’s really cool. Didn’t even realize that. That might make it even tougher then, might take quite a few strolls along the beach…

First things first. Paperwork has to be submitted and then the GTD Team will reach out. I confirmed with my dealership that there will be no ADM.

Good to hear on the ADM. Hopefully others will have the same experience there. Will be a cool journey for you all for sure.

I read in a few of the automotive magazines that Ford is paying $15K to the dealer for each GTD that is sold via that dealership. That might have had to do with the change from $300K to $325K price tag.

Most likely. I wonder if that’s an incentive payment to keep them from charging ADM.

I saw on Instagram that someone did their S650 RTR in MystiChrome. For some reason, it looked a little different. Not sure if it’s the body lines or what. Didn’t look bad, just different

Congratulations @Tomster!! I'm glad a true automotive enthusiast as yourself was selected.

They allow any color but that one, unfortunately

The price includes the dealer markup already. It has changed, but was something like $35k or so previously.

Congratz! WOW that is awesome, looking forward to pics and your comments. This is the closest I will probably get to experience this amazing machine.

Congrats on getting the GTD allocation. I dread seeing what "influencers" get one. So far I see that stangmode got one so I am sure he will do stupid @#$% to it and with it.

Both stangmode and squeaky got one. Good for them. I still can't figure out what stangmode is going to do with it..... it's not a dragstrip car and it certainly won't be a giveaway car... and he has to keep it for 2 years.

Update, the papers were notarized and mailed out today. Looking forward to hearing from the GTD Team. I threw some swag in the envelope.....

I am planning to have the car delivered to the Speedway. There I would do a couple of parade laps for celebratory sake. Once I speak with the GTD Team, I will reach out to my contacts at the Speedway to see if something like this is feasible.

I hope this thing isn't too far down the road.

I mentioned in the other thread that stangchode isn’t even sure he can afford it . He’s also talking about modifying it if he goes the base route. Not even sure how modifiable these cars will even be but there’s zero chance a guy like him can make it better than Multimatic/Ford Performance. Saw that Austin got one too.

I don’t begrudge anyone that got the opportunity to buy one, but those guys will pound their channels with content for a few months, views will level off then they’ll shelve them until they can sell them. At least most of those YouTubers will. Guys/gals like Schmee will probably keep them for the long haul.
