Most of you know about the circumstances leading up to me being able to order my GT350R. Ford has been very good to me and I feel very fortunate for being given the opportunity to order my dream car.

The car was shipped last week. I tried every way possible to pick up my car from the plant. It just wasn't meant to be. However, I was able to get it direct from the rail yard in Atlanta yesterday afternoon.

Here are a few pics from the rail yard. I'll have more pics in the next few days.

Edit: I'm having a hard time uploading pics from my iPad. More to come...

Congrats Joe !! Looks beautiful. :cheers:

When can I host you at AMP to check it out? Would love to see it. I will probably be there this Sunday with a buddy who bought a 16. FWIW

My 17MY R will be next year. Bummer :frusty:

I need to check my schedule and see what's up. I'll let you know if I head that way.

Hope You Can Make It !

I will be driving the Vette and NISMO. You can see my CTS DD in the background and my buddy's (note high tech cooling for his tech pack) AG 16.

Congrats on the R!

I'm not up to speed, did Ford sell you a R @ MSRP. (I am familiar with what happened to your last car)

I got same deal on the R as I did the Track Pack. $100 under MSRP.

Congrats on that deal!

I'm sure there are only a select few that were able to get that price (outside of being a dealer / friend of a dealer).

Congrats to you and to Ford for doing the right thing. That is an amazingly good looking car.

If you have a little time, could you please post of picture of the EAGLE as well. They are amazing birds.

Congrats the car looks great. I would say the collection of experiences you had with Ford's GT350 will make for interesting stories for years to come.

Glad to see Ford make you whole again.
