So, I "lucked" in to a spot on the list for a 2024 Raptor R in Carbonized Grey and it actually showed up last week. They want a 30K ADM (I knew this before but just wanted the right to the truck) so the drive out price is 155K. I am absolutely not buying this truck…that's insane. My question is…do yall think I could flip it and make some money, or should I just walk? People are crazy about these things right now but I just don't know if anyone would pay over 155K for it. I'm thinking the risk ain't worth the potential reward.

Check Bring a Trailer, the last one I remembered sold for $125000.

That was a 2023. The only 2024 I've seen was a dealer selling it for 175K! But I also know some people aren't getting screwed by their dealers and getting MSRP. Other dealers are putting up to 50K ADM.

Well there ya go. Deal. Shoot me an email at cph0522 at hotmail. The truck is in NW Houston and I have to let them know tomorrow or Tuesday at the latest.

Email sent.

Dumb question but what makes the R version worth $60k more than a regular raptor?

Give Texas Auto Value in DFW a call. They'll tell you what they can buy it for. They give pretty good money on high end trucks like that.

No idea but here's a 2023 from yesterday with 26K miles that got bid to $101K and didn't hit the reserve.

Raptors or Raptor R? There are only a few hundred Raptor Rs in existence.

Bronco Raptors were going for $30k over…then $20k over…then $5k over, now you can get them at MSRP and even a little less. I feel really bad for all of the people that dropped $30k over when four months later, they are back at MSRP.

Just like people did with the "First Edition" Broncos or whatever. They were listing them for $100K which was like $40K over MSRP, IIRC.

Don't know if they actually sold at that number though.

Yea, but that's because it's a Bronco. The truck is a little bit different....

That true? Anywhere that shows real production numbers? I dunno, that just seems low

Ford doesn't share the breakdown of Raptor 35, 37, and R's.

There are more than a few hundred at this point. There are probably more than 2000, but less than 6,000.

Yes a few hundred is too low. But it is not very many. There are like 3000 Ford dealers nationwide so we're talking around 1 allocation per dealer. It's very rare.

(36) 2023 R's have been auctioned on BaT in the last year.

Majority in the 130-150k range. Lots of DNRs as well.

Great meeting you TxAg20. It's a beast of a truck!

Great meeting you as well!

That's wild.

I don't understand what happened here

I don't.....People who need the latest and greatest now have always paid a premium. Doesn't matter if it's a truck or virtual reality glasses....
