2007 Shelby GT500 Questions...
Will owners of the 2007 Shelby GT500 be so kind as to help answer these questions for me? As used GT500's are popping up with better pricing packages, I am seriously looking into purchasing one. My current 05GT has 60k miles on it and would like to stay low miles. That and to be honest with you, it's all about the whine of the SC! Thank you...
1- What is your average gas mileage... city/hwy?
2-Do you enjoy the ride... city/hwy?
3- Is there a hop when gunning it from the line?
4- I'm not sure but... what color are the guages?
5- Are the tires to easy to spin?
6- How does it control in the rain?
7- Exhaust... rate it.
8- What mods have you done and have they made a difference? Explain.
9- Do you see yourself owning this car for much longer?
10- Is it a fun car?

What the hell... Did a 5 year old write this? Who cares about that kind of stuff when you are buying a car like a Mustang. Maybe if I was going to buy a hybrid or a family sedan would I worry about Gas Mileage, driving in rain ect...

RE: 2007 Shelby GT500 Questions...
Gas mileage is worse than the GT, traction is worse, it sounds better than a GT, aftermarket parts are WAY more than a GT. Sure it would be a blast to own one, and I have considered buying one soon too but right now I think i'm better off sticking with my GT and modding it. When I get the mod bug out of my system i'll probably buy one and leave it stock.

If you need answers to those questions then you dont need it. Not trying to be a dick. The Shelby is not for the average joe.

The people who care about this stuff are the people who drive their cars daily, like researching a vehicle before purchase and care enough to know answers to the questions they have. If you cannot be helpful than why would you even post something? I've come for help... that's what these forums are for.
Thanks for the useless input.
