I asked my guy if they have allocations yet and, if so, how many. His response:
“They gave us two only: Base went for $15,000 over and the other was a golden ticket went for $25,000 over.“
He didn’t know if they would get more, or when. They normally get ~six allocations per year.
Sounds like 2022 could be a challenging year to find one…

Do you believe the numbers be gave you are actual? Or was he just talking? Interesting to see people are still going as high as 25over for a golden ticket.

I bought both of my cars from him and my son works there. Known him for many years. So yes, I trust him. Good guy.
I was hoping to tell y’all to call him if he had allocations to sell. But he already has a long wait list for the next ones (if any). He didn’t imply what the ADMs might be for the next allocations.
I know last year they shipped a few GT500s overseas cause that’s where the money is. He had a Ford GT that he sat on for the required 2 years. I thought he would take it to Mecum or something. But he sold it to someone in France for $2.2M. Yikes>>>>

Local dealer to me sold their golden ticket for 30 over and base car for 20k they still have one configurable that they offered me 10k over on. I passed and was lucky enough to find one for 5k over.

LAS VEGAS — Ford Motor Co., beset by ongoing production woes, told dealers on Saturday it was pushing back allocations and that wholesale deliveries will be lighter until the end of May, although it continues to produce vehicles and fill customer orders.

I Read more into this, sounds like allocations for stock orders not customer orders.

I'm torn... I found a new '21 GT500 13K over but its my 2nd choice in color. Based on the numbe of days its been on the floor I'm confident the overgage is negotiable or atleast what it contains. Other dealerships I've talked to said allocations are being released in 30-45 days. Is there any truth to that or are all of the '22s that are going to be released already spoken for?

I'm not sure anyone can answer that unless you hear it directly from a Ford rep, or someone you trust enough to believe who has spoken to a Ford rep.. usually a few minutes of conversation will clue you in on who you can trust. As someone who thankfully just secured a legit allocation, I feel there will be more. How many? I'm not sure Ford even knows. All the plants are a complete cluster right now, KTP is like 200k trucks behind on production, and like Flat rock, they have a complete model changeover coming for 2023.

I'm new to this but when you say you secured an allocation do you mean you took delivery or submitted the order? I guess when does one know its a done deal outside of taking delivery?

I believe this is the first grabber blue metallic GT500 posted, finally. interesting stripe color selection though...

 

[hossman]

Sheesh that photo if legit destroyed that grabber blue GT500 with those hideous red stripes. That doesn’t look like grabber blue, more like velocity blue, but no matter what blue it is those red stripes don’t work at all.
