After checking the mirror, you should always look over your shoulder. This is one of the basics I learned when learning to drive.

Anyone paying 25K over MSRP for a Mustang has to be nuts. For that kind of money you can buy a real sports car (Corvette).

Huh???
 
A vette??? Vettes are a dime a dozen, produced year after year after year....
 
The Shelby GT500 is only being built for two years and that's it! Much more collectable.
 
I had the pleasure of running against several vettes so far and dusted everyone one of them!!! And you call that a real sports car, moron?
 
Sounds to me like you really wanted a Shelby but just can't afford one!

Ford dealers in my area want 10K over MSRP to contract for a 2008 GT500. I have counter-offered with 5K, but no takers. Should I remain patient in anticipation that one will call back in a few months in agreement or will I have lost my "window of opportunity"?

I understand Franklin Mint is selling a very nice 2007 GT 500 for just a little over $100.

Oh I see. You don't want to drive it. You just want to store it in your garage for 40 years and then sell it.
I have an 05 Mustang and it's the best one I've ever owned but I don't like the idea of all the weight they have gained. I rember the first Mustangs (65) were about 2600 pounds and about $2600. A dollar a pound sounds reasonable. The Shelbys are getting very close to 4000 lbs!? I remember when that kind of weight only belonged to Oldsmobiles and Cadillacs.

No we like to drive our cars and we enjoy talking to one another and sharing our experiences about ownership. If you would like to join our group and discuss your pleasures and displeasures about your Mustang or about the premiums being charged I welcome you aboard. If you would rather not share your thoughts and call us stupid for paying premiums we are not going to talk with you. My name is Brian and I own two Mustangs. A 1966 coupe and a 2007 GT 500 Shelby. Both my Mustangs can be seen in my album here at Edmunds. I hope you enjoy the pictures and again I welcome you to our forum.

That's a call you have to make. My wife paid 20K over sticker, so if you have a chance to get one at 10K over that doesn't sound bad. Most on eBay from what I can tell are selling anywhere from 10 to 20K over stickers, but if you wait, you might do better. One thing to think about is is this dealer a local dealer that wants 10K or is it a dealer you may never go back to for service? If it's a Shelby you want but don't want to pay too much how bout checking on buying one of the Mustang GT Shelby's being finished in Las Vegas. They don't have the label GT 500 but they do have the Shelby insignia and I do believe they don't cost as much. Good luck.
