Yah, I guess it would be Parkway, probably only one SVT dealer in Waterloo, so you probably know the guy I was chirping about. Hope he wasn't a friend of yours Ed.

Still seems to be plenty of issues with delivery.
Some cars being built and have sat for over a month.
Ford is not saying much, which adds to the frustration.
Reports they have had issues, with stripe kits, seat belts,
to glove box. Not sure, but those who had received cars are quite happy.
Ford says they are building my car next week. Window sticker says rail delivery.
Dealers sais enclosed truck. SO who knows. Possible sometime in Dec.
Which means only gets to my garage, with no drives.
But at least I can drool on it, then wax, and repeat this process till spring LOL

Covered truck is probably from the rail yard to the dealer. Everything leaves the plant by rail as far as I know.

Parkway right? Any more orders coming in for 2016's, or are they done?

We're supposed to be getting 15 in total I believe, 4(?) have shown up so far, at least that I've caught sight of. All except a few are already spoken for.

Thats actually great news for Canadian buyers. Population wise, I'm betting there are not many (if any at all) US SVT dealers that are getting that number of cars for a single dealership, and given the differences in buying population and how many of that buying population are in a position to pull the trigger and buy, the chances of getting one at MSRP in Canada is actually pretty darn good. In my uneducated opinion of course.

Ohtobbad 11-23-2015 11:37 AM

The R will be difficult, But I know here you can get the GT350 at MSRP.
In the US, the top Mustang dealers get more and the get 1-R for every 4 regular 350's
If you sign up for the program in the US, they get 1, cost the dealer a $1000 to sign up.
Their is over 5000 dealers in the US, so figure it out, only 5000 GT350's being built
2016 and again in 17.
Best I can figure, 25 SVT dealers in Canada, 15 gt 350's plus 1 R
They also get the Raptor exclusive also. the new RS anyone dealer can ask for.
they will be limited also.

First head to head.

Good video.

That flat crank makes the GT350 the nastiest sounding car I've ever heard.

I knew the 350 would corner faster but figured the Z28 would real it in on the straights.

The drag race shows the 350 is also the more streetable car that it will actually hook up off the line.

7.0L to get 500hp is just archaic.

Great video, but make no mistake the Z is a bad a$$ track car that is very fast. Ford is on the right track with the 350's.
