Default '08 GT 500 exhaust on a '13?

Hi all,
My neighbor sold his 08 GT 500 about a year ago and still has some of the stock parts for it sitting in the basement. While I know that the appearance mods will not fit due to body difference (along with most performance mods too), I was wondering if the exhaust itself would fit?

If not, $300 isn't too much to spend in the scheme of mods planned, but if I can save a few bucks, why not

I also feel as though this is a quick and simple, "no" answer - so by all means excuse my ignorance if it is.

Thanks,
Ryan

First, it won't fit because of the difference in the mounting for the 2013.

Second, why do you want to put a pair of stock GT mufflers for the automatic on your car? That is all that the GT500 had - off the shelf, stock GT mufflers that were used on GT's with an automatic. It wasn't until 2010 that the GT500 got a different muffler than the GT. So if you did buy them, $300 is way too much for what they really are.
