I think I will be doing some mods....most importantly the exhaust...it is just too quiet stock. Do they make boomtubes for the GT500
?
Possibly some rims in the future too...the one thing kind of lacking on the stock GT500 is the rims. I really like the razors I just saw in another post. Possibly a CAI and tune down the road but that's probably about it. Or at least that's what I say now

lol Yea Im sure you will do all that stuff and in about a year get bored and start doing a bunch more mods...But then again thats half the fun of owning a stang idc if its a Gt500 or not....Again congrats on the purchases enjoy them both (esp the GT500 lol)

Well my girl and I spent the entire day at the Ford dealer. We brought home a 2008 Shelby GT500 and a 2008 Ford Edge. Traded in the 2007 Redfire GT and 2006 F-150 Supercrew. I almost had a tear come to my eye seeing them go....until I hopped in the Shelby and drove it home
It's a Torch Red with White stripes. The interior has the crimson inserts on charcoal. The drive was about 35 miles home and I only got on it once, but that thing is a beast. The dealer told me the supercharger doesn't really open up until you get about 100 miles on the car...I can't imagine what that will be like!!!!
I know, I know...this thread is worthless without pics. I will try to get some posted as soon as I can find our little camera adapter to upload em.
Tomorrow will be spent detailing the car since I had to drive it home and got a little bit of roadsplash.
Pics to come!
