New guy buying something tomorrow

Get the R. You won't be disappointed. I have yet to see any R on the road since they have come out, but have seen a few regular 350's.

HOWEVER, I'm concerned with you stating you would be trading for it with negative equity in your current car. If you have negative equity, you don't have any business trading unless you like being in debt. Just my 2 cents.

IMHO I think this is an old school way of thought. I know a lot of people with the outlook that if they can't pay cash, then don't buy it mentality, which could be a great base rule to go by.

That said, with today's low interest rates, having negative equity on a car doesn't necessarily mean he is not in a great financial state. Case in point, even if I did have the money to pay for my R outright when I got it, I wouldn't have paid for it in full up front. Reason being is that I can make a lot more money investing than the 3-5% in interest that it will cost you by just making the payments.

Probably are warranted to show concern, and I realize my outlook doesn't apply to everyone, and while the old school cash approach is very antiquated in today's society it isn't bad baseline by no means

This is what I subscribe to, I've got a pretty healthy portfolio and try not to cash out unless it's an emergency.

I don't want to come off as telling you how to spend your money but I know it does kind of sound that way. If you have plenty of nuts squirreled away and making the move won't hurt one bit, then I'll be the last one trying to dissuade you from upgrading. 9 out of 10 times you here someone say they want to upgrade and have negative equity in their current car, they are likely living near paycheck to paycheck.

But I digress, get the R. When I had my track pack, I would have only sold it for an R. Now that I have the R, I never think of the old track pack.

Get the R. I bought a GT350 and ended up ordering an R in the long run. Both are great cars, however.

 

[tdzee]

Buy the R. You will never regret it (unless it is your DD). Best of Luck. Let us know which way you went. :cheers::ford:

 

[Tomster]

I wouldn't encourage anyone to pay a 20k ADM for an R.

With that being said, I'll sell you my 255 mile R for 15k over sticker.

This offer is only good for today.

 

[Hack]

Get the R if you have the money. I don't think you'll regret it either while you own it or when you go to sell the car.

I am in chicagoland and have gone out 100 miles. No R deals out there and have found gt 350 only at msrp. You need to figure in several things
1. are you really going to track it
2. tires for everyday use and finding someone to work on carbon fiber wheels
3. are you a collector? Cars you goanna drive are going depreciate fast
4. I can not see into the future but a 15 grand is not worth it on a car you are going to drive enjoy. As much as I would like a R for me I can not make the case for 15 grand over. Finally if you go out of state you need to factor in your time and the cost to get the car home by local if possible. Some finf me a R for 2 grand over with stripes I will buy it within 100 miles of Chicago good luck buy it then drive it like its stolen

What makes an R worth $18k more than a regular? Serious question.
