What about this one?

Im going to try and look at the orange one on Monday. Thanks in advance.

I forgot to ask, what kind of mileage should I expect when not driving spirited. This will be my daily driver. Also is there any reason to go for the 09 over the 07, or are they identical?

I was originally, but I will have hardly any warranty left, and like I said this will be my daily driver. I am not ruling either out at this point though.

Although the red one is very pretty, I would pick the orange one. I think the price is more realistic as the red one is only priced about $4,000 below original window sticker. Also I was not aware that the '07 had a six speed tranny as O.E. I would offer $30k for the red one and $35-36k for the orange one.

Thanks guys. That is almost the exact offers I gave them, and I think they are fair.

I like the orange a lot and I'd say offer around $35k. Wasn't '07 the first year of the GT500 production?

Mileage on the red one at 473 compared to the 09 at over 13 thousand, a no brainer IMO

I think an offer for either one in the low $30k range would at least result in a counter offer that's worth haggling over. It's a shame because Saddleup just sold her '08 Grabber Orange GT500 with only a few thousand on the odometer (2,000 or 3,000 if I recall) for $38k and it was a lot nicer than that one.

DD a shelby, eh? Good for you! I DD my car and people think I'm crazy, 28k on the clock now and I've enjoyed every mile of it, I know a guy that has a 2007 GT500 with 1200 miles how can you even enjoy the car!

Hope you get one of the 2 (I prefer the red myself)
