As long as the dealer has allocation for the car you should be OK. As for the navigation, I personally would not want it. I would prefer the shaker 1000 instead. For $2k I can read a map. But it is just a matter of personal preference. Although I think it would be a little odd for a mustang since I would have a hard time looking at the screen while flying down the road.

Replying to: shelbydude (Feb 20, 2007 4:22 pm) The rip off comes from the fact that Ford is only producing a limited supply of Shelby Mustangs. This creates an artificial shortage of units available to customers who like to buy the car. I don't mind that if they are then sold on a first come first serve at the MSRP. But dealers recognize they have the customers who want the car in a bind. They are taking advantage of the situation by charging thousands more for the car than Ford Motor Company intended. This is not Ford policy. This is simply dealers taking advantage of the situation and filling their pockets with money they don't deserve. It's not like I can go somewhere else and get a Shelby Mustang. Dealers are given the exclusive monopoly to sell this car and decide to stick it to the customers for whatever they can get. If it were a normal supply and demand situation then Ford would make as many Shelby Mustangs as they could sell. That's standard business practice. If ford makes too many F150 trucks and can't sell them it's because they are trying to force vehicles on the public that they don't want. Blaming the customers for that is silly. So we have different points of view. You are entitled to yours and I'm entitled to mine. So not only will I not purchase a Shelby Mustang, I will never purchase a Ford of any kind again. That's also my right. Peace....

Replying to: nipntuck (Feb 20, 2007 9:03 pm) Here is a link which shows the Navigation system. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mustang-Shelby-GT500-with-Nav-System_W0QQitemZ140- 085845185QQihZ004QQcategoryZ6236QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem This is a car currently on Ebay. I ask the dealer to order my car in Ebony Black with White Stripes and Black Interior. I am not interested in the Shaker 1000 Shelbydude because of the extra weight and the room it takes up in the trunk. I also don't like all that "base" at my age. If I were 20 years younger-maybe! Thanks for the help in advance. Is it wise to order a car from a northern Florida dealer and then have it delivered to a southern dealer? Is this possible and ethical since this dealer sells his at $20K+? Retired in Cape Coral Florida |
