Default Careful with eBaying

Just did a search for 2005-2007 Mustangs on eBay to see how the prices are.
Found a chump dealer who thinks the Shelby GT has a 5.4 lt engine! They make that same mistake twice!
Hope the bidders know what they're doing!

Not to mention the Shelby GT500 5.4L has a fat supercharger sitting on it. All I see on this is an upgraded Intake....which means it's a 4.6L with Shelby upgrades (Shelby GT ~ 320-325HP)

Its the internet managers own fault because if the consumer is misled then they can void the contract and get out of the car if need be. Its called false advertising!

Looks like an honest dealer, he wrote me back and said he got a few emails about it so he relisted the auction. The page generator automatically put the 5.4 when he put in V8 and he didnt catch it the first time. Here is the new auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=300131035796

You would be amazed (or actually, maybe you wouldn't) at how many Ford dealers across the county don't know the difference between a Shelby GT and a GT500. How so many of these guys can sit around their showrooms all day and know less about the vehicles they sell than the buyers do is beyond me.
