Secondo Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 It's an "R" model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaspar1 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Wow that's a little high ,but a great car. Yeah just a little high. What a joke. Amazing how stupid some car enthusiasts can be. You can get yourself a very nicely equipped 2LZ, C7 Z06 for 20 grand less that will run the talble on that GT350. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

03 DSG Snake Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 I just saw an R listed for $132,000 this weekend... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShakeMe Posted May 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 I just saw an R listed for $132,000 this weekend... Looks like I should have taken the $15K ADM when I had the chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilmor Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 It's an "R" model. They list for $62K msrp. I think if someone pays $100K he's going to lose money big time in the long run. But I could be wrong and it wouldn't be the first time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I could be wrong and it wouldn't be the first time! +1 But to some people, $38k is like $38 to us and to them it's no big deal. They'll have the "R" model and we won't. If they don't keep it for 50 years to get their money back, someone will get a great deal on a used car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViperNC Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Hmmm.... right here in my backyard, too. Some people have more money than brains. They also have a deep impact blue which would be a nice upgrade for me, but I'm not giving them $70,000. Patience is a virtue.... That car will be priced much less in the future used with low miles.

Wel'll by it used from them at a steep discount instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I could be wrong and it wouldn't be the first time! No, you are not wrong. You are right on the money. The dealers are ass raping the suckers on this one for sure. The GT500 will drop a bomb on the "R". New car enthusiasts are a fickle lot and the attention along with money will migrate rapidly to the next latest greatest. "R" owners who bent over with an ADM will understand how this dynamic market works when their friendly neighborhood retailer won't give them 50K at that point.

The new car, whatever they call it, will not affect the prices of the GT350 IMHO, especially, the R. Different marketing between two cars. We will all only know when they actually release the car. Now, 100G large, no thanks. But some people have money to burn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITHERTZ66 Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Could be a fake sale....just sayin....way to artificially boost market. I'm skeptical on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShakeMe Posted May 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Just came back from a local dealer. They had a base GT350 that was sold and they are getting one with the track package for $66K. The "R" they had sold for $50K over so he said. Which made me blurt out, "people are stupid". They also had a stage 3 Roush for $70K.

07gt500conv Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Was at my local Stealership yesterday talking to a salesperson. He said they were going to jake the ADM for the 17 to 8K. I asked what they are getting for the R's and he said 20K over.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilmor Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 It's really a shame that Ford doesn't prevent its dealers from charging these high ADMs such as Fiat...err Chrysler has done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twobjshelbys Posted May 28, 2016 Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 It's really a shame that Ford doesn't prevent its dealers from charging these high ADMs such as Fiat...err Chrysler has done. Chrysler didn't force anything. They incentivized dealers. They got more cars if they sold the ones they ordered. You might tack an ADM on a vehicle and still sell it, but every day it sat on the lot the fewer cars they got. It'll be more interesting to see how Ford prevents dealers from tacking ADMs onto the new Ford GT. Ford says it won't happen. It was originally thought that the financial transaction would be done with corporate, but the application process reads that the delivering dealer will do it all, so I fail to see what prevents the dealer from holding the car hostage. The process does assign a vehicle to an individual though, and there have been some dealers who state they will not charge an ADM, but of course, those dealers would have to first be selected to be a delivery point. I'm pretty skeptical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secondo Posted May 28, 2016 Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 +1 The Dodge dealers were buying from each other and charging ADM's. The smaller dealerships were buying fatcats with ADM's from the larger ones and then marking them up even more. The ones I saw in CT were $90k.

True, its happened to me before, But in this case, he could not. Hard to explain so I wont get into it. My only point is that he has no reason to exagerate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
