Base Model R Club

[obspsd]

Just spoke with my buddy in Seattle and his 2017 GB Base R only had a Black roof and no stripes therefore this car is now down to a 1 of 2 or 1 of 1 car.

How did you like driving one of these spartan Base R's on the auto cross course?

I have not driven a Base R on an auto cross course but have driven a couple of them at Sebring and had a terrific time.

When the instructor took over we were hitting ~140 MPH in 4th gear which was well beyond the speed that we could not generate in a 2016 Track Pack car on the same part of the track.

Good luck as where this is a will there is a way!

I also drive my 2017 Mustang GT at auto cross events.
Coming from that, it felt like a completely different animal.
Probably my favorite things about the R cars is the exhaust note and the wing.
I only had it up to around 50mph so a long long way from the limits of the car.
I would kind of like a base R because of the (race car) attitude it has. And very rare.
Auto cross is a lot of fun and a lot safer then going to the track. (I would love to track one to just saying)
That grabber blue base R has to be about as rare as any modern mustang can be.
(Not including PP or test cars)

Here’s to hoping it’s doesn’t sell again....so I can buy it later.
I did talk to him a couple months ago and he is selling it to get a 2020 CFTP GT500.

Wished that you could get into this car as I know how much you like these Base R models and especially if this Grabber Blue R model ends up being a 1 of 1 car!!

Awesome car. Glad he put the CF wheels back on. Love the color but not the aftermarket side stripe so much. That's a great deal.

Unfortunately, I'm Base Model R heavy right now. Pull the trigger and make it happen, you'll be glad you did!

I respectfully disagree. I like the side stripes, especially on this color. Then again, i'm partial to it. ;)

So is it still for sale and if so why haven't you pulled the trigger as this car is right up your alley!!

Possibly a 1 of 1 car and maybe the rarest Base R model of the 135 cars built??

No one bid on it all three times it was listed on eBay.
I still have a loan on my 2017 Mustang and can’t get approved for enough on another loan without a co-signer.
I really like the car and someone could of got it for $53,000 which seems to be a very good deal.
I assume he still has the car.
Here are a few Instagram photos of the R shortly after the current owner purchased it.
