No doubt R's will be more limited supposedly. Biggest glitch in more production are the CF wheels. Expect yearly improvements, competition and used units showing on the market us up tick in production.

Production of R's will be between 500 to 1000 per year over 3 to 4 years.

ADMs are lunacy right now. Price gouging at its finest.

If you want a collectible at the right price now it's the Boss LS. If you want the latest greatest with any possible future appreciation you may see gifted to your dealer by a GT350 with ADMs.

I can wait.

Started looking around for a car with technology pkg white blue but seems like dealers are asking 10-25k over msrp- is that the norm for this vehicle.

Same info that I keep getting from my small Ford dealer in central Florida. He gets offered cars from other bigger dealers @10k over MSRP. I'm in no rush. So, will wait for my dealers next allocation from Ford.

Yes it's normal, certain dealers out of California are snatching up any allocation they can find from other dealers offering 10k over MSRP and selling them for more. It's the must cut-throat American car to purchase since the Ford GT.

Update: My car was just changed to status from "produced" (23Oct) to "Released" - waiting on shipment now

Are you sure you don't want the Alcantara Recaro race seats as you get in the Track Option?

I cant find an R for sale anywhere, let alone for close to MSRP. These cars are hard to grab that GT cars.

Non-R's with Technology Pkg are a dime a dozen. Good luck finding one with Track Pkg. Dealers have no idea what they're dealing with as usual.

Forget about getting an R until production ramps up and stealers run out of gullible buyers.

Happy to wait for the froth to die down just as it did with Z/28.

I'm in the same boat although I do think the froth is a bit bigger than the Z28.

Best I have found on non R car is 5K over MSRP- I cannot believe people are actually paying these markups. I would buy a 5k car.
In Florida do not know how one can drive a R car with no AC.

You can add back A/C in R if you want it.

Took my buddies gt350 out for a short drive yesterday. Specced with sofa seats and only 50 miles on the odo. Seats are mounted way to high for me. 6.2 with no legs and all torso. Interior quality is pretty nice. I've never even looked at a mustang before. But the engine in this thing just sounds so freaking awesome. Felt like it sounded better with sport exhaust turned off. More natural sound that way. But have to get back in it when broken in.
Looks and feels big.
I recommended TRAKCAR brake in procedure to the owner. Chin at Sebring next weekend. He didn't look to impressed. 😝

Stopped in at my local Ford dealer yesterday and they have not even seen a GT350 in any configuration yet.
