Do any of you have another Ford performance vehicle? If so what is it. I stopped for an oil change on Friday and they had a GT350 on the showroom floor. I almost bought it but instead I put myself on the wait list, which I'm #1 on the dealership list for the Shelby mustang GT500. I'm so excited.

I'm surprised the dealer let you sign up for a car that does not have a release date yet, let alone any public specs/information...other than a couple of ambiguous pictures to get people hyped. Sounds fishy...

I'm on a wait list so when it's released I'm able to preorder when the order banks open and have to make sure they get an allocation. There was no deposit made or anything. I'm just on the wait list is all.

Hey Michelle, I do have another FP vehicle, 2017 Shelby GT350. That flat plane crank exhaust note is a thing of beauty! I removed the OTT White stripes and had the roof wrapped in gloss black. Here are pics:

Nice, get ready for sky high ADM's...Ford dealers are going to have a field day at $20K + ADM's... I spoke with a LFD who I know the GM well and he's considering MSRP on a GT500 but wants to wait until closer to release date (which likely means ADM)...

Your car is so beautiful. I love the Ford blue color but love how black looks on a car. I hear the engine is one of the best sounding engines on the market. The GT350 at the dealership was red which I'm not a fan of and it was less than what I paid for my raptor which was $66,000 MSRP. I'm also not a fan of the racing stripes either. I did love the car and the seats felt like it was hugging me. I'm also a little nervous to go with a stick shift since I haven't driven stick in like twenty years. Maybe I can practice before the super snake is released. I would love to go for a ride with you, but I don't think we live close to each other. I'm

I'm on a wait list, I didn't preorder or anything, just like I did with my raptor. I was on a wait list for almost a year before I was able to order it.

The Ford dealership said they won't mark it up since I've purchased a raptor from them and they said they don't mark up their vehicles. The general manager says it's bad business practice and don't believe in ripping off their customers.

Come to the dark side. muahahahaha.

a worked gt350 gets A lot more attention than most cars 2x or 3x the price. it also outruns them.

OTOH, it also gets a lot of looks from the crew in blue.

Stripes are for braggarts. :p

Wow, better keep that dealer info under wraps, that's great that they're not going to be doing ADM's on the new GT500!

there is a very good reason that my raptor is not black. :biggrin:

even with PPF and ceramic, it is a lot of effort to keep black, black.

We've done this for every specialty vehicle for the last 20 years.

As people come in asking about one and are interested in buying it we start a list. Date, customer name, address and contact info. Once we get product info, pricing and allocation information we start contacting the people on the list. First person gets first opportunity, seconds gets second and so on down the list. No deposit it taken until that point.

My 1st gen2 raptor customer was on the list for almost 2 years from the time I started the list and he took delivery of his truck.

We currently have a list for, GT500, Ranger, Bronco and the Bullitt Mustang

This is my other one..

Nice car!!

I just picked up a Teal 93'. Bought it from the original owner and it's only got 15,000 miles on it.

I also have a 97' Cobra and an 03' Cobra.

Also have a stock 2015 Taurus SHO for my commuter car. That's not actually mine in the pic- but same color, wheels, tint.
