Default SHOULD I TRADE MY 07GT FOR A SHELBY GT

Hi evryone I was wondering if I should trade my car in for a new leftover shelby gt this dealer has two left, their looking to get 28,500 for it plus other incentives I can probably qualify for my car now has udp's, 4;10'S, a tune, cai, and boomtubes. I was going to change the midpipe and do fuel rail deletes but what do you guys think keep it or go for the shelby?

Everyone is going to tell you no, but if you want it get it. You only live once, so if the Shelby GT is what you want, by all means BUY IT!

I know its no gt 500 but I'm guessing I can get it lower plus It would be worth a litte more in the long run than my gt I don't yet I might go sunday last day of the month so anything can happen i guess i got time to really think it through.

I wouldn't in terms of performance. Wouldn't be worth the hassle to me... but if you want to drive a Shelby, by all means do as you please.

This is a question that only you can answer and should be based on several factors including:

- Your financial status
- The deal the dealership is willing to give you
- Your plans for the car

Really I would only change the exhaust out which I have on my car now and any billet pieces I can take from the int. I would keep it basically how it is with a little mods just to keep the value of the car plus with the 0% intrest its better than what my inerest is now and I have good credit I just think at the time for what I paid for my gt and the interset now I can get a shelby for a lower price plus zero intrest.

If you can get a good deal on the trade in I would say return your car to stock. Get the shelby and transfer the mods if the shelby is worth it to you. Personally I wouldnt trade my GT in unless it was for a GT500 or a 2010.

i really like the shelby gt's.....like everyone said, if you want it, get it!!!! as far as holding value, ummmm that is unclear....the first s197 that i drove was a shelby gt...with your mods you are probably stronger than the shelby's 319 hp motor....have fun and keep everyone updated!
