Until these are completely out of production we won't really know...but eBay is a good resource for current market and I think that is in the ballpark.

It is my opinion that you were not ripped off based on current market conditions and in fact may have paid a little below current market conditions if you are in the Phoenix area and purchased your car recently.

Having said that it is my experience that when the 2016 R models originally came out early last Fall there were deals just over MSRP and the early built R models could be successful obtained at a reasonable price but once Road & Track awarded the 2016 Shelby GT350R as their 2016 PCOTY around November 2016 prices started to change and increase quickly.

If you have received your R model already and presently driving it I am sure that you are impressed and if you have not received it yet trust me you will be very impressed.

Autonation Ford in St Petersburg, FL has two GT350s available, both with $5k ADM. I'm not sure if they are willing to negotiate (looking for an R or a 2017 allocation, so I'm not interested).

-2016, Oxford White w/ blue stripes, tech pack (on the lot)
-2016, Deep Impact Blue w/ black stripes, track pack (arriving soon)
I just got clarification from the dealer: the $5k ADM is currently non-negotiable. The sales guy also said that they are expecting a 2017 allocation within the next couple of days, which will be available to be ordered to a buyer's preferences. This allocation comes with the same $5k ADM. If interested, my contact was:

Yeah, if I wasn't set on not paying an ADM, I would likely order with them. Jonathan is one of the more communicative sales reps I've contacted.

Did they say if they were getting a 17 R allocation and how much they were asking?

Elder Ford of Tampa FL calling around about 2017 allocations. They are asking 5K over. I know they previously wanted 10K over for a 2017 allocation. I have a 2017 @ $2500 over locked up. I told them if they match it I would buy it today. They never called back lol, whatever.
