Default gt500 & svt raptor

i just seen both a 2010 gt500 and a svt raptor at the sametime at a dealership both where black and i can said even though i think the gt500 is not a real svt to me this thing looks amazing in person and the raptor is just sick looking and i dont even like trucks like that. now that svt is back do you guys think that they will take back the mustang and make the REAL COBRA or keep letting carroll shelby put racing stripes 0n everything and kicking the weight up on these cars

i dont think ford is going to let shelby go just yet, at least while he is still breathing. i also really 'dig' that svt raptor truck.

GT500 roll down the same assembly line as all the other Mustangs and some Mazda car. Why do you think it is not an SVT car. There is no difference on how that car is made compared to the SN95 SVT Cobra was made

ford already dumped mazda and i think they should get their ideas on cobras from svt and the roush group like they have done in the past

My point was AutoAlliance produces All Mustangs and the Mazda 6 on the same assembly line. And that Carol Shelby doesn't produce or "put racing stripes" on the GT500

To me theres nothing wrong with the new shelby, except for tires. Shelby is an American icon, i dont doubt his performance on stangs.

No the GT500 is made at AutoAlliance. The Shelby GT is the one that comes out of Shelby's Las Vegas plant (after it was assembled at AutoAlliance). Where it gets strips and weight as you put it.
