On the brink of buying a GT350R

[PencilGeek]

Yeah, I called RPM (the maker of the roll bar) and they said that the guy kept the car in super duper clean condition. It has also never ever been tracked! I drove it and loved it! I just made a deal at $75K (down from $82K). Pretty happy considering most of them are going for much more in the area.

I'm in your area too, 350R, with cage, and spare wheels/tires for the street. I haven't tracked it yet...but when it cools down a bit I'm hoping to make time for the track.

Congrats on the car. You will never regret it.

That is an amazing in-stock deal right now if still available at that price. I saw that last night and thought there's no way that's still there at $5K over. But you never know.

That dealer is just around the corner from my work. Tried them several times and their ADM was always very high. Not sure if this is real or a tease. Amazing price from these guys if its real.

Agreed, I don't know why everyone is so quick to jump to the fact that if has a cage it must have been tracked Hard and put away wet. I'm putting a Cage in mine and as much as I would like to, I don't know how often if ever I'll be able to make it to the track

I think common sense tells us cage = hard driving, track or street. Why else put a cage in it?

Congrats on the purchase! I think it's smart to buy a slightly used car and get a better deal, plus getting the roll cage is an added bonus. Our cars were made to drive hard; they can take it. The only reason not to buy used is if you would mostly leave it in your garage and just take it out to go to cars and coffee. If you're going to drive it hard anyway, you know the original owner didn't use it any harder than you would.

Sorry for not updating this thready my friends, but I actually ended up purchasing a BRAND NEW GT350R from a dealership in Southern California. I actually tried calling McDavid Ford (someone mentioned them in this thread) and they refused to move from 20K over MSRP; however, Sunrise Ford hooked me up with 5K less and although the price is still high, it is better than what most dealerships have offered in Cali. Furthermore, the shipping cost is lower and they gave me an addition 2K in rebates on my warranty. I couldn't be happier and it is going to be awesome to own a brand new car!

Congratulations! Welcome to the GT350 and R crew. You wont be disappointed

I have some terrible news. After the GT350R was unloaded from the transport I couldn't believe what I saw:

(1) Chunk of the rim and tire taken out
(2) Scrapes on front splitter
(3) Scratch marks on random areas of the car due to poor dealer prep

I talked to the sales manager and they tried to get me to keep it, but out of my own conscious I couldn't take the car. I denied delivery and told the dealership to take it back. They fought hard, but the entire ordeal was terrible. I am sad, but I have my Vette for now and that is never a bad problem

Thanks for all those that helped and provided great advice!
