+1 MSRP in a handshake agreement. Had to drive 60 miles to get it after my local dealer in a town of 100k people promised “substantial” ADM.

Good for you. I will never pay over MSRP even if I have to wait 2 years.I have a dealer in IA that the owner NEVER charges ADM that I'm on the list for.
That's my plan. Wait them out. 2021 or 2022 is fine by me. I don't have the hooks and did not get ahead of the curve. Just like my 2017 GT350, I paid MSRP after the rush and the stop sale was lifted in 2017 and had a few dealerships with cars they could not sell sitting there suddenly able to sell.Good for you.

You're assuming there will be a 2022 model. That's when the S550 chassis is due to be replaced.That's my plan. Wait them out. 2021 or 2022 is fine by me.

I understand that but the GT350 is still being sold even though we were told it would only be a 3 year run. I know a mid-model refresh is not the same as a new chassis but Ford has dumped a lot of money in developing this new GT500, I imagine they feel the need to recover as much as of the development costs as possible by selling the car for as many model years as they can. I'm certain there will be a 2021 and 2022. 2023 who knows.You're assuming there will be a 2022 model. That's when the S550 chassis is due to be replaced.
03-04' Cobra then new chassis/no Cobra in 2005.
13-14' GT500 re-vamp then new chassis/no GT500 in 2015.
I'm not stating that there will be no GT500 in 2020. But it is a possibility/consideration/factor.
I assume you meant 2022? I am planning on getting a 2021 GT500.You're assuming there will be a 2022 model

2021 will be the second model year for the GT500.I assume you meant 2022? I am planning on getting a 2021 GT500.
What does that have to do with the price of tea in China.I understand that but the GT350 is still being sold even though we were told it would only be a 3 year run.

It gives us a historical reference point that Ford might declare a car will be built for [a limited] X years, only to change their minds further into the platform's production cycle. it doesn't seem like an unreasonable assertion[?]What does that have to do with the price of tea in China.
One source says the CD6 Mustang, which goes by the codename S650, appears to be delayed at least to the 2026 model year, while another source guesses 2028 or 2029, either of which makes it less of a product plan than a promise to keep building the icon. In the interim, the S550 Mustang will receive a major mid-cycle facelift to update its current D2C platform and reskin it with new sheetmetal from nose to tail, which will require some underbody work. It’s the mid-cycle D2C update that will spawn a Mustang hybrid, although that car is said to be delayed slightly from the 2021 model year to early in calendar-year 2022.
With shipping of cars prices coming down, any deal under 10k over ( depending on your abilities) for a 1st allocation is a deal to me. i think enclosed trailer from upper east coast to TX costs like $2500 at most. And can be lower if open trailer, lower again if you contact performance shipping companies and reference your memberships to certain websites/forumsI also have a deal in place for a 2020 Shelby GT500. It is with the same dealership that I ordered my Shelby GT350 from also at MSRP. I will have to travel to get it though. Southern California dealers were getting 30K ADM for GT350s for the 2016 GT350s and they are already asking for 50K ADM for the GT500s out here. I already have my deposit in and trust that my MSRP deal will hold. I don't have a written contract though. I wish you everyone good luck with finding one at MSRP. Honestly I wouldn't be able to afford the car if I had to pay an ADM on it. I don't want to sell or trade my GT350 to get the GT500. I want to have them both!
I learned a lot when I bought my Shelby GT350 at MSRP. It is acually cheaper if you order the car from a dealer who will sell it at MSRP and then find another dealer close to you who are willing to accept it as a drop ship order. You have to pay the receiving dealer between $300 and $600 dollars for administrative fees but it is much less than an enclosed carrier. I didn't have a problem finding dealerships that will accept the dropship ordered Shelby as long as you keep your mouth shut about not paying an ADM. I saw first hand dealers marking up GT350s/GT350Rs 20K and 30K over sticker. The GT500 will have higher ADMs out here in souther California. I am not rich and I openly admit I would not be able to afford the car with a 30K to 60K ADM on top of what I expect to be an 80K MSRP.With shipping of cars prices coming down, any deal under 10k over ( depending on your abilities) for a 1st allocation is a deal to me. i think enclosed trailer from upper east coast to TX costs like $2500 at most.
