Yes. Seems the new GTs are not flying off the shelves here. my car with the same options now stickers at $60k new. Ridiculous. Used low mile PP premium manual cars are in high demand as a result. That must be why the dealer was hounding me about test driving the Mach 1 auto they had in stock when I had it in for service last.
Yeah...S650 doesn't seem to be selling well at all. Our major cars and coffee is the first Sat of the month and sees at least 300 cars. Tons of mustangs...old and new. I have seen exactly 2 S650s there to date...a regular DH and one other GT that comes sporadically. Maybe the buyers of the S650 are not car show people...guess that is their strategy in ditching all heritage cues in the car. Our club did an annual all Ford show with about 200 cars...again tons of mustangs came out. One DH showed up. Our dealer here is always sending me offers to buy back my Mach 1. There is only 1 car that could get me out of it...a low mileage Code Orange 2022 GT500 (no CFTP). I think if I could make a fair amount on my Mach 1...the wife would even let me do it.

Tbh the only people I’ve seen driving s650s around here are old people and ford employees that get it at a heavy lease discount

Starting to see more of them here in the Chicago burbs too. The bronze package is actually pretty cool, something different

I've seen one S650 around here, which is nice. I rarely see any Mustangs.

I’ve only seen four so far. One dark horse which I didn’t like and three ecoboost and I’m in SoCal where there’s a lot of mustangs around. I guess the counter cool part to that is I’ve also only seen one other M1. Of course FJG.

It was probably me! LOL

I have not seen a M1 for ages around here.

They may have you outnumbered but yours still looks way better and sounds way better

I haven’t been to San Clemente probably since January or February. I’m gonna have to come over there and help you out. We need to set up a time to go it will do both. Show these new so-called ponies what’s up. Getting the HP spoiler put on next week that’ll help.

Absolutely. I’d be embarrassed to drive those things in that lot. The cars at this thing are remarkable. Now that the weather is nice I’m heading out.

With the bullshit scumbag cocksucker shithead dirtbag dealers charging markups on everything plus 5-6% interest rates with an 800+ credit score, im not surprised. I know ford said they were going after dealers for the markups but i havent seen the effects of it yet. Dealers are singlehandedly killing Fords (shit, all mfs.) sales which im sure is hurting them.

One thing Tesla does right is letting you literally order online and have the car personally delivered to you. Thanks to politicians keeping their pockets fat, i doubt we'll ever see that in ICE cars.

If you special order your car, can dealers still charge you a markup?

A good friend of mine had two GT350's. Both were oil burners. I read where the engine is no longer made. Will this be an issue especially for future value?

The only 18 gt350s I saw during my search under 50k had accidents on their history. Or high mileage.

One thing I noticed is pricing I kinda all over the place.

My 18 with 20000 miles and electronics package was 54k a month ago or so
