Hello Friends,
I am happy and exited to share that I upgraded my 2015 Mustang GT Premium Manual with PP1 to 2018 Shelby GT350.

I sold my 2015 Mustang GT in April and moved to Texas from Massachusetts in June.
I am looking for an upgrade to 2019 Mustang GT manual with PP2, Active valve exhaust and Recaros and my son's color choice is Race Red. I tried to find with this combination and they were none available but the dealer near my home have this in Shelby GT350 with exactly what I am looking for, but the price had $20000 mark up value. I was negotiating with the dealer from July for MSRP price and finally the day came last saturday when dealer agreed for MSRP and I was able to make a deal on the car.

Congrats! Now that details on the '19s are coming out, the '18s need to move!

Looking forward to your comparison of the cars after you've put a few miles on the GT350.

Congratulations and welcome to Texas. If you're in the North Texas area, we have a Shelby owner's group and we've got the intel on all the local dealers and tracks. PM me if interested.

20K ADM is pretty outrageous now a days so good for you @ssbollam for sticking to your MSRP price and closing the deal :like:

If you're interested in going to the Track Attack, you have a year from date of purchase. Make sure to contact Ford Performance now and see if you can ensure a date for next year. If not, keep a watch on the 2019 date announcement and sign up as soon as you can.

Enjoy the 350!

Yeah I think New England has had some of the worst mark ups for GT350's. A year and a half ago when I was looking for an R, one of the Boston dealers was asking $110k.

Have you seen CA? They're still asking that and more.

I could be wrong but it seemed like the dealer the OP was talking about is in Texas. I could be wrong again but it could be a case of attempting to take advantage of an immigrant.

Yeah when I said "some of" I was actually thinking as to CA as the other bad spot. I didn't realize the ADM's were still that high there.

Oh ok, when he said "by my home" I thought he was referring to back in MA. I had thought Texas was supposed to be one of the more reasonable areas for ADM so what you're saying makes sense.

OP, congrats on the race red 350. It’s a great color and hides dust fairly well.
