[QUOTE="Tob, post: 16642469, member: 83412"] This was a marketing failure at the corporate level. Anything after that is secondary. Getting an R in '15/'16 was near impossible unless you were willing to fork over an insane amount of ADM or got extremely lucky. So the masses were left with the regular GT350 to choose from. I recall a large number of dealers ordering the Tech Package for their showroom. I knew I'd be disappointed with the 4" screen and "entertainment" system on the Track Package and I was. I'd have rather just gotten the damn delete but Ford marketing struck again and product planners decided that would only be available on the R model. It was [i]very[/i] frustrating and as an enthusiast it really pissed me off that such a well engineered car got screwed up by the people that had nothing to do with the engineering aspect. I feel like the GT500 "Golden Ticket" was a continuation of that idiocy but what can you do other than complain, or buy the Base car and do it your way.:) [/QUOTE]
