Geesh. At this point and likely for the next 8 months at least, I'd bet 9 out of 10 dealers who has a remaining (or an additional) '16 non-R allocation will command an ADM.
I think that's very safe to say. I have a different problem now. I used Nationwide my whole life to ensure my cars. Today I get off the phone with them and they tell me they cannot write a policy for me on a GT350 because they consider it a performance/racing car. They said my only recourse to stay with them is they partner up and write me a separate policy with Haegerty Insurance and consider it a collector car and it will be $1529 a year with $500 deductible with the car valued at 60K. Anybody else have these issues that are ordering a GT-350?

They said your only recourse?? I assume you responded, my recourse will be to look for a company that can handle all my insurance needs :)

My Insurance company will insure this car for $200 more than my existing Mustang, with replacement cost, although I doubt I could get it replaced.

My insurance company (USAA) could not give me an exact quote without a VIN, but after descbribing the car to them they made no mention that they would not be able to insure a Shelby GT350. They used a 50th Anniversary to give me a rough idea.

2K as in "only" a $2,000 markup for an R? Heck I'll do that in a heartbeat. 20K (twenty g's) no way but for two-thousand yes sir... can I have it? :D
LOL I know, right?!? I wish!
Yes, 2k ADM.
I have thought about it and made up my mind to be 5k max on ADM. I love the R car, but not to pay over 5k more than what it is advertised for. But, you never know,......you don't ask, you don't get. :thumbsup:

Now you got me confused... you previously said "I refuse to pay over 2k ADM for a R car"... now you say you'd pay up to 5K ADM?
If so, man you shoulda jumped on the R for only a 2K ADM. :shrug:
Heck I'd pay 4x that ADM for an R! :headbonk:

I haven't shopped for a R car yet. I'll be looking early next year. I'm paying off my '13 RS3 sometime this month and will be looking at the GT350R for next year. Originally I was going to not pay more than 2k ADM, but I thought it about it more and will go to 5k ADM. I really like the car.
I hope that explains it a little better. lol
