Again, the Ford software the dealers use automatically applies “Mustang” discounts to online pricing. The software hasn’t been programmed to distinguish btw a GT350 vs a regular Mustang. The dealers should check their websites though, and quickly adjust the price.
I would seriously doubt that. I’m sure, as time currently exists, there are roughly 206 - 215 HEP Rs and I can tell you there are already more CFTPs than that.
yeah. long relationship with the dealer. but i guess not long enough for MSRP for the CFTP. haha.
Only the original receiving dealer can make any damage claims against the shipping carrier and they only have 48 hours in which to do so too. I would have original dealer do everything minus the front splitter installation/shipping blocks if it's a R, that way if there's hidden underbody damage, it'll get taken care of with no expensive to you. I hope that helps and good luck with the rest of the wait for your 350!
Appreciate the help, and yes, The closer it gets the more impatient I get LOL!
If you want to leabe it alone as much as possible, then I would just make sure they at least put it up on a hoist to inspect the underside. When mine came in last month everything looked just fine from the ground, but if I hadn't put it on a hoist I never would have seen the four inch gouge in the rear wheel and I'd of had to pay for it. No harm in leaving the plastic wrap on. They sit out in the sun for weeks at the factory, so what's another week getting transported to you, haha. The rail shipping is weird to track, it's usually updated at various rail checkpoints in transit and then again when it gets to the final yard where a regular hauler picks it up. I wouldn't worry too much about it blanking out, just give it time or have the dealer email you a copy of the current vehicle visibility status tracking screen.
Like mavrckofhemlok mentioned above, have the original dealer do the PDI except for the install of the front splitter and the removal of the shipping blocks. Just tell them not to wash it and to leave all the shipping plastic and stickers on the car. The wheels actually don't need to come off to remove the shipping blocks. You can pull them out with the car in the air. If there's any damage from shipping or something is not working properly, they'll document it.
I'm guessing once the blocks are out to test the suspension/driving you can't put them back in? or can you?
I never tried to put them back in... never needed to.
