yea, ok...….
I expected some skepticism, but to be honest I am sharing only what I heard, and just to avoid spreading any false information, would rather have you guys get the facts directly from my friend and the dealership owner.

This specific dealer has a decent amount of spots for the new GT500 available, and is a big high performance seller in the area. He also told me yesterday that they’re currently trying to process 3 of the forum members that were sent to him yesterday, I would be glad to provide more info once there are anymore updates.

I really figured I’d share the tip so that some of you guys could possible get a deal and also do my friend the favor, since I have no affiliation with the dealership.

Curious as to when the order banks open up for the 2020 GT350s. I put down a small refundable deposit recently with a dealership just to reserve their single allocation of an R. I believe they went through the Shelby Enrollment program but they seem to dodge that question the two times i brought it up. I'm skeptical, but hopeful. I was given a tentative date of 8/1/19 by the dealership's Manager, and with 8/12/19 being the start of MY20 production it seems to make sense. Anyone have any concrete info I may have missed?

How delayed were the 2019s?

Sorry, but I read SoCal and close to MSRP. Those usually don't go together in the same sentence. Please report back here how those deals work out. I hope for the best for our members.

Understandable, and if it turns out what I said was incorrect information, I have no problem owning up and admitting I got the information wrong. I’ll be sure to come back with any new information as it comes.

Be careful guys. I wouldn't give a penny to anyone other than a dealer, directly.

I found out the dealer is a mustang enthusiast himself and is looking to get prices as low possible for potential buyers.

They currently have 3 people on their list with their packages already picked.

For any confusion, I am not associated with the dealer. I am unable to disclose information about the dealer or their final pricing because quite frankly I do not know that information, it can only be discussed between my friend and the dealership owner and the buyer.

I am also not asking for money, nor is my friend, all the money is going directly to the dealership.

I am just referring everybody to my friend, Josh, who is a salesman for the dealer.
A little bird sent me this message.

fyi, that gotta.track.it guy, is nothing but a lead generator for "mustang Manny"... Selling the cars for $30k++ over! Mustang Manny guy is working out of a dealership in las vegas.

Any truth to this?

Like I said, I am not personally affiliated with Mustang Manny. I was told that they were working to get prices close to MSRP, but once again, I was unaware of the final pricing. If that $30k over figure is true, then consider the information to be null and useless.

Only reason I was not stating names and numbers is because I was not sure if it was public information.

I heard one thing, and simply wanted to pass it along to a group who may take advantage of what I thought would be a good deal.

If he’s selling for over +$30k then I definitely got the information wrong.

Looks like I'm not getting the MSRP deal I had a "handshake" agreement on, my dealer decided that he would take an offer from another dealer for $15k over for their one allocation. They're a small dealer in Northern Oklahoma and have been through 3 sales managers in less than a year. The previous 2 managers had agreed to MSRP but the current manager and the owner hit me with $10k ADM and I said thanks but no thanks. I've bought 4 vehicles from them in the last 3-4 years so was a little pissed, probably look for a new dealer to take my business to. If any one knows of an MSRP deal in the vicinity of Northern Oklahoma I'd be interested.

I can't blame them for trying to get what they can, but around here a man's word is pretty valued. I own a small business and if I make a promise to a customer I do my best to stand by it. I guess worst case I can wait like a lot of other folks.

I'm shocked the dealer didn't offer to split the $15k windfall with you. I mean it was YOUR car he sold to the other dealer for $15k.

Well I think NOW you are obligated to name such dealer since they are JACKWADS. I have a gentlemens agreement that is nowhere NEAR final, so i still have hope a mans word means something but honestly i am starting to loose faith in humanity....I get they can do what they want, should make money however they want, just don't string my A$$ along for 6 months, be straight from the beginning. If i get screwed over on this deal i may just give Ford the middle finger and move on to bigger an better things....
