RE: Bullit verses Shelby GT comparison
I still don't see where you get your 7000 dollar difference!!!
1.) You don't own either car.
2.) I paid $34,788 plus TTL&D for a Shelby GT
3.) I would have paid 32,555 plus TTL&D for a Bullitt
Real world difference is $2233. Make your judgement based on that, not the $7000 you talk about. Those are two real prices from competing dealership while I was really buying a car and not just typing about it on my keyboard.
There are no extra gauges on the Shelby! I have no idea what you are talking about there. Why would that hood scoop need to be functional? The car lacks a 4 barrel carb. There's a reason why the hood scoop is non funtional.
I will be putting 3:73 gears in my car. That is the one thing I really wish it had. Oh yeah, and the Bullitt has a cooler shift ****, IMO.
That's the real difference. Here are your real skid pad numbers as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlqjChw9H3A
That's the Edmunds video where they really hate the Mustang and love the STI...before they even test either car. I have never quite seen a car as ugly as the Subaru STI, but to each his own.

Yeah wouldn’t that fit right along with the rest of your Bull$hit. Not!
It is a 2007 SGT, you got caught with your foot in your mouth calling me a liar or idiot when ultimately you are a big-mouthed blowhard who doesn’t quite know as much as you think you do.
If you actually do work so closely with so many Ford dealers, you can find this car with its VIN. I doubt you do, but if you indeed do you can locate this car now. This method allows you to prove you were not overstating your connections with Ford dealers and prove you don’t know everything there is to know about SGT pricing all at the same time. Give them a call; I’ll wait for your public apology posted here.
Here is the VIN: 1ZVHT82H875315943

2. Showing the dealer markup does not prove anything. Like I said before, I was at a dealer last week that had a base '08 GT500 with a 70k sticker on it. Do think that dealer isreally only going to except 25k over! Maybe a year ago. Now they will probably let it go for 5k over. That sticker you to took a pic of has probably been on the car since they to delevery of it back in mid 2007. If they are really sticking to that markup then like I said, just laugh at them because that is a f*ckin joke.
3. Did you not see the links I provided you!
4. A mutual friend of mine purchased a '07 SGT three weeks ago for 33k before TTL&D. That is $500 under the dealers cost of $36990 and then less the factory discount on all 2007 mustangs(except GT500) of $3500, bring it to $33,000. My other buddy is in the market to purchase one to sit along side his '03 Mach and has decided that he wants an '07 for no more then $32k before TTL&D. He has talked to a dealer in Texas that would do somewhere in the low 31's but he wants white and it is black.
Point is Shelby GT's are selling for just a couple grand more then the Bullit. Period.

RE: Bullet verses Shelby GT comparison
Now that the initial shortage is over, dealers in my area are starting to sell Bullets at around $500 over invoice, which is around $2000 off MSRP.
At current pricing, I think the SGT's and the Bullets are bothgreat cars, at very attractive prices. The GT500's, at MSRP, are too, which is what I paid a few weeks ago.

RE: Bullit verses Shelby GT comparison
The rebates do not apply to the 08 Bullitt. I know, I looked at one before buying my 08 GT two weeks ago.
The SGT is nice and a good attention-getter, but I am not into fake scoops. To each their own...

RE: Bullit verses Shelby GT comparison
Agreed!
At $33,000 or less the Shelby GT is a very good deal!
But at even $38,000 not to mention $48,000 the SGT is simply over priced.
Now, at that price if I could get one with stripe delete, scoop delete, and add the GT500 seats and factory 3.73/1 gears I would be all over the SGT. Oh, and mine would definitely have the Shelby front brake cooling ducts. Or I guess I can just stick with my new Bullitt...
For what you get I think the SGT should be priced about the same or slightly lower than the Bullitt. Either one of them the Bullitt or the Shelby GT priced in the low thirties is a lot of Mustang for a fairly (relatively speaking) reasonable price, and is a very good thing for all Mustang enthusiasts!

No rebates are offered on the Bullit. I see the Bullits going for just over 30k and the SGT are going for 33k. Yes the SGT is a 7 grand package. Like you said, its not worth 7k. Which is why these cars are selling for under cost plus a $3500 rebate, making them a good deal at 33k.
