#493 of 547 "Shelbydude" Just Curious by bri66 May 01, 2007 (10:58 pm)
I know no one knows for sure what Ford will do next week never mind next year, but have you heard anything about the continuation of the Shelby GT for 08? I was talking this past Sunday at the Mustangsunlimited car show that was held in CT to someone that has a Shelby GT currently in Las Vegas waiting for a born on date and was curious if there are plans to continue this Shelby beyond the 07 model. I seen my first Shelby GT there and I really don't like the way they attached the hood scoop. We stood together watching 95% of the show cars exiting and watched some real nice launches. Of the four GT 500's I watched leave only one got on it and watching closely it was sad to see the wheels hopping during it's launch. It was the only one too I noticed with that damn wheel hop. Too much power up front and not enough in the rear to keep up.

#497 of 547 Hey ShelbyDude I'm back! by moronix May 08, 2007 (7:40 am)
Just like a bad penny I keep coming back. I gave up on the Shelbys. I went up to Georgia and traded for a '07 Mustang GT Convertible with the California Special package (Redfire/black top/5 speed standard shift). I love it! The Mall of Georgia Ford Dealer treated me good and I'm happy with the new Mustang. I really don't need 500hp anyway. Everywhere I go I get great comments on the car. It's the most beautiful Mustang ever made. My last tank of gas I got 26.3 mpg while averaging 33 mph. So it was a good mix of city and highway driving. Mustangs forever !!

Replying to: shelbydude (Apr 30, 2007 4:46 pm) This post is etirely accurate, for those who care about such things. '08 is the last year, 8000 to be built if things go trouble free, 1000 KRs. BTW, 1000 KRs = 1 for every 4 dealers. The vast majority of dealerships wont get even one.   I also agree that toward the end of the '08 model year, premiums will peak. I'm also willing to wager that the KR will bring 25 - 30 over MSRP.

Replying to: shelbydude (Apr 28, 2007 2:55 pm) No GT 350. No more Shelbys. The bullit comes next.

Replying to: shelbydude (Apr 28, 2007 2:55 pm) I suspect the low point for pricing on the GT500 is now. As next year draws to a close, prices should go through the roof. I saw some GT500s on ebay with reserves set at 10k over msrp. Lowest I've ever seen em.

Replying to: moronix (May 08, 2007 7:40 am) Congrats moronix! I test drove a GT/CS last winter and was very impressed. I even tried to talk my son into considering one, but he ended up with a Mazda Speed3.   Shelbydude, what is your take on this? I am on the list for a SS GT500, but I don't like the shipping arrangements. I have to first accept the car at my dealership here in New Hampshire, and then ship it to Vegas and then back again. That seems reall risky and inefficient. Why can't FoMoCo ship the car to SAI in Vegas, like they do for the Shelby GT, and then the buyer makes arrangements to ship from Vegas? I have suggested this to SAI.
#502 of 547 Is anyone interested in the "Shelby GT" by mschmal May 09, 2007 (6:54 am)
The one on my showroom floor is just collecting dust and finger prints.   Mark.
