The GT350R

[VoodooBoss]

Do you think the recent reduction and "fire sale" of the Z28s for 20% off will have any effect on pricing for the 350 and R? With GM having to reduce their vehicles (Buick, GMC, chevy) including their unsold Zs maybe that was expected by ford and is why they were saying we would be surprised about prices? I wonder when we will get more regular 350 info like specs or pricing.

I don't think it will have much effect on pricing but I'm sure Ford is watching it closely. No doubt it will help keep pricing reasonable. I don't think we'll see specific pricing until the order banks open or shortly before. We might get a range or ballpark number though.

So just imagine that you're a Camaro Fan Boy and paid $5-20K ADM to be the first kid on the block to own a Z/28 and then have GM lower the price by 20% plus incentives. Or you're that "car collector" guy that thinks the car is going to be worth more than you paid for it. I imagine there's a few unhappy peeps over in the Chevy camp at the moment.

Definitely agree. I would be SO mad! Not to mention, not ALL of the Z28s and Zl1s are marked down, only those that have been on the lot a while. A coworker of mine was at a dealer recently and saw a ZL1 for original MSRP. I would be so angry being the guy to buy a Z NOW only to drive it off the lot and lose more than 20k on it when a little shopping around would have gotten a good deal...it's sad

Anyway, sorry for the thread jack...I'm just soooo freakin bored waiting for more info :-(

Geez let's hope it doesn't look like this. I do expect to see rear brake ducts though.

I don't know I'm kind of liking that! But I have grown to like the in your face look of the Black and Red LS.

Works for me.......especially in graphite with black stripes.

For me...I like the regular 350 hood and I'm not sure if/why they would change that and the louvers are ridiculous on the s550...people need to give that idea up.

Agreed. That would not be an incentive to spend over the base GT350. You'd go from the most track oriented car to the one with the most scoops and ducts possible on a Mustang. Well aside from adding one of those roof mounted driver air scoops... ;D

If the scoops are functional and look right I'm all for it but not the way this rendering looks. Below is a link to the article.

Now this roof scoop looks ok. ;D

A GT350 without Blue stripes??

Prefer Blue.

Blue with white stripes right?

Blue and white or white and blue. Vaguely familiar. :

You guys are so nostalgic ; D I'm not a huge fan of white cars but that's why they come with choices right Interesting comment on factory 6 - point harnesses. I hadn't seen that before.

 

[TMSBOSS]

Not nostalgia here. I have issues. :

My wife always asks what shade of blue are we buying this time. ;D

The first step is admitting you have a problem.

Blue is my favorite color but I'm trying to convince myself to go stealth this time.

I become more indecisive as the wait gets longer. I have been dead set on competition orange with black stripes...but the white and blue is classic and looks really good...

This wait sucks :-( I don't want to know how much tougher it'll be after I get one ordered lok

The "limited" production is the one caveat to pay attention to. Despite the Z28s sitting on lots with big discounts, if the production numbers are in the low hundreds like I've heard, it could put a damper on things....at least for a while. The key will be my dealer getting an allocation and if not, there will be huge ADMs for a while which I won't be interested in pursuing. Let's hope Ford gets the production numbers right so there are enough for people really willing to buy one, but not too many that they sit on the lots.

I wouldn't kick it out of bed for sandy feet if it looked like that. I could also go for something more subtle.

There are far too many inappropriate ways for me to respond to that!

provisions for safety equipment in a car meant for the track?!?! hallelujah if that's true.
and the double bubble?! if that's true then I'd expect the roof (and perhaps add'l parts) to be made with lighter-weight materials than the gt350.
at this point, I don't care if it only comes in primer color...I'm wanting one.
