Congrats on your SHELBY there blueshawk !!!
Nice wheelin and dealin you did !!
And you will be in the exclusive "Shelby Family"
Thats good to hear it's faster than that big block chevy !!
PS, driver or queen ???? (both?)

 

I have seen a few of the Shelby GT's around dealerships in Virginia and some, were surprisingly selling at MSRP. Some had a slight markup but the ones selling at MSRP were gone from the lot in less than a week's time. I suspect that GT500's would move justas fast if dealers would sell at MSRP. If Ford continues to build them, prices will likely come down when the new Camaros and Challengers, along with whatever new Mustang modelsFord release start hitting the show rooms.

Someone else on here already said it and I agree . . . many of us will not be around by the time any of these cars become "classics" and very few cars appreciate in value until they are classics.

 

It's a queen for sure. Love driving it mostly on weekends and when the weather is good.

 

I think $49K is a rip off. Don't get me wrong...gorgeous car!

But considering that it's a GT Mustang with only 19 (not 40) more HP, Shelby badges, stripes, Hurst shifter and Shelby signed dash. I think the markup is insane honestly!

Last weekend, I saw my first Shelby GT in person though at my local Ford dealer. They were having a car show that we went to and they took it out of the showroom and put it on the lawn. To my surprise, there was NO markup on this car. They wanted $32,000 which was only $1200 more than the black GT/CS they had. It's still there...they had it for 2 weeks so far. All the GTs there cost between $24-28K, one GT/CS (white) costs $29K and fully equipped V6s cost between $20-22K. So I think that's why the Shelby hasn't sold. Too many good deals on the GTs. I have pictures I took that I will post as soon as I get them uploaded.

The new Roush is nice but I'm thinking it's going to be overpriced as well. I like the Shelby better and I think I'd rather buy aGT and do it up myself than buy a Roush.

 

I think the shelby gt package adds about 9000 onto the price of the GT. I saw the calculation somewhere. So that puts the sticker on the shelby at about 37000-39000

 

+1
Considering that it is a GT with Ford Racing parts with S H E L B Y sticker and the parts are installed by Shelby, does it really make the car a Shelby ?
Any backyard shop can install the parts, it's not that difficult.
But, if the Shelby had e.g. 350-400 horses under the hood, that would make it a Shelby.

 

Save your money, will be at MSRP or less in a year if you still want one, the hot ADM marked up car then will be BOSS, Bullitt, Mach, whatever.

 

Hell no it's not worth it!!! Hell no!!!!!!!!

 

I agree 100%
