You just named the Ford GT from '05-'06, they've already done it.

Ford did have an ALL Fiber Carbon Mustang at the The Woodward Dream Cruise in Mustang Alley this past weekend. I didn't get any pictures of it because it was a serious downpour at the time. Not sure if it was a GT500 or not.

There was a company that made carbon fiber 07-09 shelby bodies for the rolex grand am series. The complete body cost $35K and I think was 3" wider than stock all around.

From that site-
The car weighs 3355 wet. We dropped about 400lbs + prior to adding super charger, intercooler, oversize radiator, Huge brakes etc..

Thanks again for the comments, hopefully as more details are released everyone will "get it" #mustang Reply

Isn't a reg GT like 3455lbs? Doesn't seem like alot of reduction for all CF. Definitely not worth $135k...lol no way in hell.
