So back in August I went and asked my local Ford dealer if he can get me a GT 350 R heritage. A week later they got back to me and said yes. I put a deposit down on the car for an agreed-upon price ($800 off sticker).
After much back-and-forth and some concern after the order books closed I...
I ordered my HEP R (if it ever get produced) WITHOUT tech as well. More speakers = more weight. Also, should that make it more unique (R + HEP + CF Dash + Cover = not a lot of siblings I'd guess)... a nice bonus!
Wow. Glad this worked out for you @Viz .... Great community here. I requested the DORA for my order on Friday.... Today I was told by my HEP R salesman that tomorrow I will find out if I'm really getting the car I put a deposit on in August or not. Fingers crossed.
Definitely been checking the spreadsheet for the dealer's name and have not seen it. Not many R HEP heading to WI so it only take a quick scan... I saw one going Metro Ford in Madison... but nothing for my WI dealer. Looks like I'll have to push a little harder next week to see if they actually...
Thank you for initiating this thread as I am in similar situation....
Ordered mine August 18th and as 9/28 ford performance advised I was on unscheduled material hold.
I requested DORA From dealer (didn’t know what that was before this forum)... Wednesday I received a text from my salesman: “I...
I am actually a Jeep guy (CJ, JK) up until my wife didn’t want to put or twins in a JK with 35’s. Anyway, I was always impressed with the resale value of my wranglers.
No one should buy any new car as an investment.... but you can limit your downside. I feel 10 years from now a GT350R HEP will...
All good Mik. I appreciate the apology. I do agree with you that one can likely make more in the market while paying (very low these days) mortgage rates..... but I'm no Gordon Gekko and my priorities are likely much different that yours.
Which reminds me of another saying my father liked:"...
Wow. That's a lot of assumptions about someone you don't know. Not sure why the aggressive tone is necessary, are we not all friends here? Why tear each other down?
I will check to see if the dealer received an acknowledgment. They did provide the order number and their dealer number to me upon request.
I have been in contact with Ford Performance weekly checking on the order. It’s actually been a great experience. I originally contacted them via chat and...
Are the heritage stripes on a “R” not matte as all other Rs?
I thought GT350s have gloss stripes and GT350Rs have matte stripes?
Thank you in advance
Great idea! I’m in for a complete set of HEP stripes! (Assuming somewhat reasonably priced)
I’m planning on ordering a replacement splitter too.... figuring I’ll have the dealer install the replacement and keep the one that comes inside the car in the factory wrap.
I have read that it’s a coperate/ford thing with the dealer website... discounts are automatically applied and program can’t tell the difference between and ecoboost and a HEP R
