Man, I'd love to own a GT350. It's the car that finally convinced me that the new S550 was indeed a pretty good looking Mustang. And the MSRP (without the dreaded ADM) could put it much closer to the range of my wallet's limit than a 2014 GT500.

But I'm totally enamoured with driving a ragtop and it'd be too traumatic to give that up. Moot point though....it'd have to be a couple of model years down the road before I'd give a Shelby some serious thought.

I can't decide between Base and Track Pack. They will look nearly identical, but TP costs so much extra

I'm leaning Base because of price. I'll likely never utilize MagnaRide to its capabilities, nor the additional cooling systems, but I do much prefer the taller spoiler and the in-dash gauges. It seems silly to spend $6,500 on a spoiler and gauges... but down the road the TP equipped car should be more sought-after than the base model, right?

while there are two that clearly won't be traded in, I hope you're right. I might be tempted to trade up.

I'm wondering how Boss and GT500 prices might be affected. I'll go out on a limb and suggest that if anything values will hold firm or even increase. There's only so many GT350's and R's being made, and the ADM will negate any MSRP advantage of the base Shelby. I think that'll put Boss and GT500 owners in the drivers seats so to speak. If I was in the market for the
crème de la crème of the Mustang food chain and a GT350 price turned me off, a used Boss or Shelby are nothing to be ashamed of....those cars are every bit as serious in my opinion.

This is my thought process i might just settle for the base. I don't think i would ever have a need or utilize the magnaride. The spoiler im sure you can buy eventually through a dealer.

I'm getting a base GT350 at $800 below MSRP. I too think the packages are too expensive for my taste. I was hoping to get nav as a stand alone option, but looks like that's not gonna happen with this year's MY.

Base will suit me just fine as this car will just be a W-E driver and stored 5 months a year.

Where do I begin


1) It's still an SVT dealership only car, along with the Raptor. Yet ST's are sold at every Ford dealership


2) The Price. Just over 64,000+tax Canadian. $72k+ taxes in. for the BASE car. $20,000 over the base price of a Premium GT coupe. And the tech package is over 9k.



Just to compare, across the model lineup. The US/CAN prices per the same cars are around average $4,000 for the base vehicle. I would have liked to see the GT350 come in around 52-54k if that was the case.

Our dollar is crap at this point, but still...we absolutely get hosed.

Yeah, that sucks for all those reasons. I've sworn off doing any more business with my local SVT dealer. I don't even know where the next closest SVT dealer is. I also hate getting hosed for being on the wrong side of the border. That's far more than the current exchange rate.

On the bright side, the super high MSRP of the new model should keep the value of my Boss higher than if the new MSRP was significantly lower. It sure eliminates any temptation to trade in the Boss.

No, they're making something like 35 2015 models to celebrate the few 1965 GT350s that were made. They will be marked up like crazy.

My local dealership is looking like they want ADM; I reached out and they "aren't accepting deposits/special orders," and it "will be first come first serve"

I was looking to be one of those people who trades in the boss for this...
