Anyone received a new GT500 yet? I hear they're being shipped to the dealers finally.

Yesterday I met with my local Ford dealer where I trade regularly and ordered one in performance blue. Apparently my order was the last allocation for this dealer for 2020.

It sounds like it will be a few months before it arrives. Has anyone else ordered the 2020 GT500 yet - and if you have, what did you hear for a delivery date?

Looks like I need to start looking for a buyer for my 2015 GT350, from the production run of 100 cars for 2015.

I asked my guy about it. Same guy that owns a Chevy dealership I referenced in another thread.

Truth be told, I’d much prefer the GT500 over the vette. He told me they are going for stupid mark ups and that I should wait. He sold me a 17 GT350 which seems like forever ago. Along with all my work vehicles.

Not super interested as ive got my sights elsewhere, but I’m a big mustang fan. And the reviews of this beast are off the charts.

I’m looking forward to your incoming thread.

2015 was a good year and low production. On top of only 100 they made 37 GT350Rs.

What color is your '15? Any add-on packages?

Andad · 25 February 2020, 11:47 AM

Very nice John.

Specs are amazing.

Looking forward to your review.

GB-man · 25 February 2020, 12:15 PM

Look forward to the incoming pics. What a car

Technology package, 50th anniversary white with blue stripes. (I added the dark gray wheels a few months after it was purchased.)

Yes, the mark-ups are wild - $25,000-$30,000, even more for a carbon fiber package. I got mine for sticker or it wasn't going to happen.

I'm not a white car guy but that's nice. That's really nice.

Like this? If so, thumbs up.

Can anyone post the specs here (in a nutshell). Don’t need every last detail.

More pictures too please and thank you.

John, sounds like a heckuva machine ... can’t wait to see the incoming

Shelby will always be my dream car. Nicely done fellas

I believe that is the Ford performance Blue color! Here are a few more photos with the carbon fiber package - to include that huge trunk wing.

037 · 26 February 2020, 03:07 AM

Sick.

Did you order stripes as well? Same wheels?

The spoiler isn't bad. If it's in the rear view then you could unbolt it and save it for track days.

I didn't order the carbon fiber aka track pack.

I did order the white stripes.

Still a solid config.

Can't wait.

How many miles on the white horse?

I had an allocation lined up, but bailed a month into it. I really want to love the GT500, but I'm not ready to give up on rowing gears yet. I ended up switching my order over to a GT350R. I would love to get a ride in a 500 though. I bet they are a blast.

superdog · 26 February 2020, 04:28 AM

My raptor is this color.

I love this color!!

RW16610 · 26 February 2020, 07:27 AM

Wow, it's very nice! I can certainly see why it's got so much interest.

AzHadEnuf · 26 February 2020, 11:43 AM

Oh my! You are my hero John. Enjoy!!!

maylebox · 26 February 2020, 06:31 PM

Congrats on the incoming. My best friend picked up a 2019 Shelby GT350 last weekend and I got to take it for a test run. Fast, fun, and great looking. I can only imagine what it'll be like driving the 2020 GT500. Enjoy.

springer · 28 February 2020, 11:38 AM

Thanks everyone. Summer can't arrive soon enough!

locutus49 · 28 February 2020, 11:42 AM

I owned a 75 Mustang. It was so slow I was cruising down the highway and arrested for illegal parking. I switched to Porsche.
