what color are you looking for? I know a 16 orange with stripes track pack on lot for 5k asking. out of state
Undecided on color right now, but I won't be purchasing until September or after since I am getting the deposit together at the moment. I love the car, but don't want to pay ADM, hence getting early start on calling around for next model year.

Lol, why would there be ADM on non-special cars? I guess trusting my gut was for the best, I would have passed up on my deal waiting to go talk to them in person and they likely would have pulled the rug out from under me at some point. Surprising they have yet to receive a 2016 however.

It's a tough question to answer. Will demand go down if you wait a little longer? Maybe. The competition is definitely working at producing something to beat the GT350, and once that's out it may become easier to buy a GT350 at a reasonable price.

I guess it depends on how much you want the car and how much work you are willing to do. I really wanted one, so I paid over MSRP to get one. If I were in your position I would start calling now and keep calling until I found a deal. The problem is - the word is out and it might be a lot tougher to find a deal now than it was over a year ago when I started looking.
I really do hope other car companies come out with a response to the GT350(Z/28?) Or even the announcement of the GT500 will help take the heat off the GT350. In my world, unless another car company is coming out with a NA 8000+RPM V8 there is no competition.

2016 gt-350 tech red w/ black roof no stripes
when I was at walnut creek they said 20k over and had adm on the gt500 as well. YMMV

Turlock has a red stripes tech 10k firm
Use fords website and put in the zips on major cities and grind it out. deals are there but its luck to find them

Anyone else planning to get on the waitlist for a MY2017?

Damn. Do you have any details on when your production date is?

Because of all of this, Ford will be raising the price on '17's as they're leaving money on the table. Just like the B302's and the GT500's.
Did they add any value to it when they did that? I wouldn't mind a price bump if they added in Sync3, or some other feature.

Did you end up buying out of state?

Buying out of state is new to me. Did you have to pay Illinois/city taxes on the car, and do you just pay the registration fee to the CA DMV?
