Where are all the R's ?

[DAVESVT2000]

Of course they don't have a 20,000 unit run that is the 350, but you get the idea. Why in the hell didn't ford lottery off these 2500 units Rs

Where do you come up with this ?

Ford is making approx 4000 GT 350's and 500 Rs per year for two years, which is right in line with previous boss 302 and Laguna seca production, previous gen bullitt production, previous Mach 1 production (first year), etc.

I and a few others had NO problem finding our Laguna secas for sticker, I bought my 2000R for under sticker, my friend bought his 95R for under sticker.

It can be done with patience and homework.

Some people say the GT350 will be five years not two, 5 years at 500 Rs each year is where I believe the 2500 number is coming from

Right now as it stands it will be 3 years minimum. I read 4 a few times but in '15 there weren't many made. I also seen 5,000 a year so IF it ends in 17 that would be 11, ××× which should be more than enough to please thr masses, you'd think. It's already surpassed un- unique at 10k IMO

Yeah ford, be more "American" and charge us 65K straight up for a loaded 350, and tell the dealers it's overpriced by 10k .so we "americans" can give our money to the people that deserve it.

2015 doesn't count by any means. I mean c'mon, they made 50 track, 50 tech and 37 R's.

So, that's 11, 137 cars IF they end production after 2017. I've read several articles where it was going to be 4 years minimum, so if it's 4, then it goes into 2018 and that's 16, 637 units. I personally think it will be worn out by the end of 2017, so wouldn't be suprised to see it end there. Plus the new gt500 will be gaining all the spotlight by then. Those articles stating a 4 or 5 year run, had to be including the gt500 too. 2.5 years a piece ( perhaps maybe we will see a short gt500 production year in 2017)!

Ford made approx 10,000 boss 302's and 1500 Laguna Secas over two years.

When is the last time you saw one on the road ? In the four years I've owned mine, I've seen two Laguna secas in my area, and maybe a half dozen regular bosses. And these weren't regular local cars, just cars I saw in passing on the highway or getting gas at a station. 10,000 or even 1500 of anything spread out across the country and Canada can still be considered a rare car depending on where you live.

Which dealership has the R for 15k over?

 

[conceptmachine]

Depends on your idea of rare. Rare by your terms isn't the same as mine. I live in no man's land and still see 13/14 GT500s etc around at a decent clip. And those were 10,000 or less. Same with boss's ... if I maybe seen a couple total ever, that would be rare to me. Now, IF the R gets 500/ year 2 years 1037 will in fact be rare by my standards. Those I might see one or two of in my area. I know of a few actually sold around here. Haven't seen them just heard from a dealer that sold 1, 15 and 1, 16 and another dealer not real far away that sold another. Then the only other one should be my 16, then we'll see how many sell here with the 17 my ...possibly a couple more.
