Iconic R Owners Thread

[V8 Voodoo]

I mean you can wait until the official 2020 production numbers are out, but I'm pretty confident there was only 1 of those built in that spec. How many people get a chance to own something that no one else has in the world?

Looking at the spreadsheet, it appears his car is missing from it. There are no other cars with the blue stripes. I have seen GT500's with the Kona Blue stripes and it looks amazing. I can't wait for the 2020 numbers to come out. I just checked this morning and still only to 2019 are available.

The spreadsheet was excellent for those hunting a particular spec - but it wasn't started until after some cars were already produced, so it makes sense that it might be missing this early build.

I cant find the thread now but @Tomster can point you to it, I'm sure - re:low profile vs shark. The most important thing to know is: what kind of information are you sending up to Ford via that antenna?

The data being transmitted is only limited by the amount of data that installed sensors can collect. In other words, nobody has really nailed down exactly which parameters of the vehicles data is being collected. It is safe to say the data most likely connected would be speed, engine parameters, location, braking use, etc.

The data has been confirmed to be shared with an insurance data pool, but you can allegedly opt out. The rest of the data is collected and used at the will of Ford. There is no way to turn it off or opt out of data collection. The only way you can stop it is to disconnect your modem.

Anyway, there you have the short story. I opted to replace the antenna with a low profile for GPS and sat radio and disconnect the modem. The low profile antenna is so much more aesthically pleasing.

Found LR020. I wonder if whoever bought the car knows it was featured on Raiits rides!

Thanks for sharing. Rumor has it this particular iconic R is owned by a member here. Can anyone confirm?

I’m pretty sure this is the one from Gary Smith Ford. It’s in Florida which makes sense. Based on the spreadsheet, it’s very nearly the last R built not counting HEP…and very likely the last iconic silver R built. I wanted the car new but the dealer wouldn’t deal.

They probably wouldn't advertise that info. It'd just decrease the value of the car to be associated with that trash.

Indeed it was from Gary Smith Ford. Also tried to purchase it, offered to trade my 900 mile SB 20 R+cash, they lowballed me at 60k trade-in value. Wasn't expecting full price but geez, it wasn't worth a $17k delta IMHO.

Iconic with black roof.

Iconic with black roof.

Beautiful. First Iconic R I've seen with the black roof and no stripe. Is she yours?

 

[Dawgman]

Yes, it’s mine! I ordered it with no stripe and black roof, thinking it it might be somewhat unique.

This is gorgeous. Stripeless Kona is my favorite combo but man this is a very very close second.

 

[Dawgman]

Kona looks good in any combination.

Bad ass man. Welcome to the Iconic R club. What is your chassis number along with your specs and I'll get you added to the spreadsheet.
