I could dump 40K into mine that I bought brand new in 2017 and still be ahead 5 grand ha-ha.
Your 2017 doesn’t need anywhere near $40K to do it. :like:

THIS.

In my opinion, allocations are dumb on limited production cars too, since the pool of buyers gets smaller the higher the price. If I had a group of folks willing to pay list price for an expensive item that I was producing, they'd all get one.
Synthetic scarcity was learned in covid now everyone trying to make it stick I love it while my competitors are quoting 10-16 Mths and demanding 50% deposits I'm delivering spec on the spot or 5-7 Mths orders with equipment that generates $60K mth revenue at 25% margin.on 1 year produced contracts.

No wonders need to block all import competition at all levels to protect imbeciles who believe market works for them haha and various govts adopting old skool Soviet practices of subsidies, local production and scarcity.

Better to get a used M1 and skip the horrid minivan digital dash that looks like was pulled from early 80s Chrysler and upgraded.

Someone or a dealer actually ordered those wheels?! They are hideous...like a circle of spatulas. That would be a deal killer if they couldn't get rid of those wheels.
But bro, they're "carbon".

Good thing for me my mountain biking phase got me over being wowed by that!

God it's ugly...expensive. looks terrible as well.
Totally agree. Now, if you change the wheels for the default HP wheels and bring the price down $8k, it just like any other overpriced Dark Horse out there. Car should be around $68K.

Carbon fiber wheels can be done well, Ford (Carbon Revolution) just chose to instead make some of the ugliest ever conceived.

This dealer wanted $10k markup for the one on the lot. But no markup on a GT. I told them I would rather special order a GT but they have to put in writing no dealer mandated accessories or markup.
Cripes it's NOT a GT500!
