And you can add my latest R to the list (JR357), however we were talking about 2017 numbers......

Yes R's have come down a bit, but most dealers I know are still asking for significant ADMs.

Jim, you are a valued member here and the place wouldn't be the same without you. Whatever is bothering you about me, PM and maybe we can build a bridge and get over it.

Unfortunately, my perspective still contradicts that.

Sac area and CA dealers are still charging 10-15 ADM, even for base / non-R GT350s. So I have been searching out of state for deals.

I was involved in one of those posts above, with a very helpful forum member, but the dealer lied and promised him an R allocation that did not exist, and therefore the R allocation at MSRP that I was taking over did not exist either.

Another helpful forum member gave me a lead to Mertz Ford, who stated they would sell me a dealer ordered R at MSRP. Fantastic! Buyer's agreement received: "Simoniz Proselect Package ... $1495" WTF??? "I don't need the paint and fabric protection, I would like to remove it from the purchase." .... "You can't, it's part of EVERY sale at Mertz Ford." "Really???!!!"

$1500 for this BS-ADM is, in the grand scheme of things, not that bad and - if I had just taken a deep breath - would have gotten me that R, but I just could not get myself to pay that dealership 15 grand for turtle wax.
