ETA????

The dealership I work at has a '15 GT350R being built in mid-July. The '16's aren't supposed to start production until the 4th quarter of the year, though. I'm still waiting on Ford to tell me which quarters our individual '16 allocations will be built.

Holy smokes!!! A 15 R? Wow! What did they sell it for or how much are they asking for it? Just curious.

1 of 37....wow...really didnt expect any of those to go to dealerships. Your dealership a top 10 in the nation?

Customer offered me a specific price, I spoke to the owner at our dealership for a few minutes, called the customer back to happily honor the price he offered us. Super easy.

Guessing the price was well above msrp, but the fact you got your hands on a MY15 r model allocation is amazing. I'm guessing pure luck in the lottery?

This car was not allocated to us, nor does it come out of our allocation, rather it was offered to a very specific Shelby collector by Ford Motor Company. Customer returned an order sheet to Ford with colors & options, and told them which dealer that he wanted to handle the sale. The customer & I agreed on a price that made both parties very happy and the owner of our dealership approved. Win-win.

My understanding is that only a few of the 37 2015 R's were allocated to specific dealers. Most were offered by Ford to very specific high profile people in the hobby.

We are a very large volume Mustang dealer, though, and have an excellent reputation for selling & servicing Mustangs, Shelbys, SVT's, ST's, and GT supercars. I feel very lucky to be a part of a 2015 GT350R delivery!

No, it wasn't. The '15 R didn't come out of our allocation so we agreed to sell it for MSRP. Win-win.

I suspect most of the other 36 '15 R's are going for well over MSRP, though.

2015 GT350

So I just locked in a deal for my 2015 GT350 with a dealer. My Scheduled date is Mid-July. Does anyone know if that means that is when Ford is building it, shipping it, or what? I don't really know and I am just curious when the 15's will arrive. Mine is White with Blue Stripes and the Track Package. It will go nicely with my Black 2014 GT500. The most powerful Supercharged and Naturally Aspirated factory Mustang's next to each other. I am getting very anxious!!!

The latest unofficial word is that production of the 2015s starts the week of July 13.

Congrats on the purchase!

As far as delivery goes, my local dealer said that Ford often builds a large number of cars, does quality checks on them, builds more, more fixes, a few times before shipping the cars. As there aren't very many 2015s being built, I'm not sure how it will work. Will Ford build some 2016s before the 2015s ship? I don't know. I'm sure Ford wants the quality to be high even though they are only building 137.

I called them. Mine is getting one of the last VIN's so it will be built at the end of production. The guy I talked to said mine is scheduled for mid July, but he couldn't say how long it would take to be delivered, but the 2016's start production in August...
