What was the mark up on the GT? I don't think anyone back then was marking a car up 100K? I've talked to dealers wanting 135K mark up. Glad I found mine at a "reasonable" adm, but I don't thing ANY ADM is reasonable. Now, if I sell it in a few years and make my ADM back, then that wouldn't be terrible
Thats dreaming though, cause the only car in recent history to appreciate is the GT.AZ BOSS, I'm sending you A PM of a dealer I know who maybe can get you in at MSRP. He had me down for a 17 at MSRP but he pissed me off with his R adm so I told him I wouldn't be doing any business with him anymore. So, he's yours.
Maybe domestic, but I've seen some people make some CRAZY money on the recent rare Porsche and Ferrari models.
Yeah, 918's and such.
I had a buddy whose dealer offered him $300k just to not take delivery of his 918. That would have been a sweet ROI on his deposit if he had taken the money instead of the car, but the car is worth more now anyways. Plus you get insider circle privilege which gets you everything. GT3 allocation, GT4 allocation, GT3 RS allocation. Gets to sell those without every taking delivery.
I heard a similar story. A friend of mine owns the Porsche store in Denver and he offered his customer $250k not to take it. He ended up selling one to that client, then he personally purchased the second one. Ridiculous cars.
The insider circle thing was designed to prevent flipping, and that's what Ford should have done with the GT. If you keep the 918 under three years, you keep the privileges for 6 months. If you keep the car over three years, you get ten years of privileges. That's insane, and would be a total no brainer. At 250 units a year globally, Ford could have done that and not made a dent in the other fun toys.
On the other hand, at just over 3 years, 918s may flood the market.
It might be what Ford is doing with the GT.

$450k?
Different situation. Trust me. ;-)
400k base plus options and tax 450k easy. 400k in ca will be 440k otd.

My local dealer (at the time) wanted $200k over MSRP for a FGT when it came out, crazy!
It won't.
GM stated the me 1le is three seconds faster than the old one on a 2 min track which puts its about 2 seconds slower that the z28 at Milford.
Randy ran the 350 about 1.8 seconds slower than the z28 on a slightly longer track. With the same tires the 350 non r should be close to the z28 times.
