National high volume low margin Ford dealer?

[Bill Pemberton]

Likely Tech Group only 2016 GT 350s and for guys who want to track the beast ( like many on this Forum), that would not be their choice.

But there are always folks out there that will never track the car. Check as to why they are at the Auction though-- am always skeptical, when a vehicle is a super hot ticket, why would it ever have to go to the Auction?

Look into Santa Clara Ford store. They had two black TP 350s. I was working with a rep there. I told him that North County Ford in Vista was going to sell me one for only 1k ADM. he said they would match it. I was all about it then the oil cooler recall happened, they couldn't sell it to me, so after waiting for the fix, I drove my Boss more and was over it. They never listed the 350s or put them in the showroom. Good luck man.

Hi Bill,

I wondered also why such low mile and high demand cars are at auction. Sometimes if I call the dealer I can find a little info but also likely I get someone who has no clue. From personal experience I do know of a couple of guys who "thought" they could drive/love a stick & then quickly changed their minds. Another guy bought his "dream car" and wife made him sell it after a neighbor complained of the loud exhaust. So I don't know, but that does seem a like a lot of 350's, of course I can find a lot of Vettes too.

Thanks for the interesting discussion, I'll keep the thread going until I end up with something.

I bet you are right. Either one package or the other.

Sigh.

Update I have found 3 black 350's in SoCal for $3-3.5 over sticker without trying too hard. Phone calls. If I show up with my checkbook out probably drop a little from that especially month end.

Still looking.

The dealers with the R's are wanting 10+ over. Maybe when the 18's are on the lot's I can get one for sticker (if there is one left).

Not for nothing but a GT350 over sticker is a rip off at this point. People are getting below MSRP if you look out of your area. Car transports aren't really all that expensive, even the higher end ones.

F paying anything over sticker for these cars. Waste of money IMO, and giving into this crap just fuels future raping by dealers.

Yep my thinking likewise.

Agreed.

If someone is selling anything that is truly one of a kind or at least rare, then let the bidders have at it. As great as these cars are, they are not either of those.

Agreed!! I'm a capitalist and not against dealers getting ADM money, just not my money!! Patience is the key...
