The Down and Dirty ADM Thread

[BShep]

Yeah - not trying to change the topic, but I paid just over 40K for my Raptor. It is a 2011 with just over 100K miles on it. It was my daily driver for a few years and my wife and I run it in the AZ desert and in the CO mountains quite a bit. Over the last 3 months, I've had two offers for it - one for $30K and one for $35K. My wife won't hear of selling it - she loves it too much.

Low mile 13/14 raptors are going for over MSRP right now, but the adm naysayers dont want to hear any of that. And this is a truck that they made 10,000 a year of

Is it because the previous had a V8? Never followed those trucks, but I can't imagine it being better than the new aluminum framed one. If its because of the V8, it's also a good indication for future GT350 value.

Yeah it is, especially the 6.2L version. Im guessing the new one will be just as quick or quicker, with better mileage as well, but americans love their V8s

Maybe, but there has been a long lull in Raptor production and 2017s are still a ways off so there is a very limited supply of late model/low mileage trucks. Regardless of the 2017 specs I think the relative demand would be quite high right now because of that shortage.

I agree with Krt22. The Gen2 Raptor will probably be better than the Gen1 Raptor in every way, but it won't have the 6.2L and there are a lot of people that only want it with a V8.

I love hearing about how everyone who already has a GT350 absolutely love it, but I don't know if I would have ordered one if not for the FPC. I love S/C engines, but the NA FPC is what I believe will give all the value to the GT350.

NA FPC V8 is what sold me also. I feel nothing for the regular coyote V8. The Voodoo motor on the other hand, well that's the one costing me $50k+.

I am seriously struggling to find a 2017 GT350 allocation for less than $5K ADM. I'd be willing to do $2K, but not $5K. Is anyone else having luck on 2017s?

 

[Tigernation]

have a 7k ADM offer for 2017 gt350 build allocation. I was hoping for msrp or a couple thousand over. Should I do the 7k over and be done with it?? I would get to pick colors and option how I want. I am gonna counter with like 4k but don't think they'll budge?

 

[Steve68]

If you were in California I would say do it. Since you're on the right coast I think you can do better than that if you're patient. It really boils down to how badly and how soon you want the car.

 

[Wichard20]

I am not sure how far or how many dealers you have contacted but plenty of dealers have open 17 GT350 allocations. I recommended expanding your search net and finding a better deal.

So, funny enough, after posting this, a dealer called me back and offered me a 2017 slot at $2K over. I was all over that! Order is submitted, and I should get the documentation from Ford in the next couple of days. Ordered Oxford White with the Black roof and the Technology Pack (no convenience pack). I am unbelievably pumped!

The General Manager was originally at $5K over but was swayed because I actually intend to track the car and knew I wasn't looking for a quick flip.

Was emailed last night about a 2016 GT350 to my specs I made an offer of MSRP on about 3 months ago. They were at 10K over, now they are at 5K but would sell to me this week at 3K. I passed. The dam is breaking. Hold your ground people. It will pass and we will see MSRP and under soon.

 

[IPOGT]

As soon as it does, I'm in for trading in my '16 GT which I love a lot, but I couldn't allow myself to pay the redicuous ADM's for the 350. They'll bury my butt in that car. I know
Ford wants them in the hands of as many folks that want one, so it's just a bit of time.

 

[EF300]

I paid a 7K ADM on my 2017 and I have zero regrets. Could I have held out and gotten it cheaper, prolly but it was worth it to me, this is my dream car and I wanted it ordered for a local dealer how I wanted it.

Maybe go flame at the 51% of the US population that sits on their back side all day collecting disability / welfare and unemployment.

I work my ass off and you know what, I deserve this car so I don't give a rip what any of u turkeys think.

1%er 's for the win !!!!!!

Flame suite on
