Checked out an 07 GT500 today.
So the dealer I bought my BMW from got a 07 GT500 white with blue stripe for $34k with 11k miles. It's a clean looking car with no aftermarket mods on it.
But after looking at it more I realized it looks just like my 08 GT minus the 5.4L Supercharged V8. I can't bring myself to spend that much more money for a car that looks like every other mustang out there. I wish Shelby would have changed the body style more to make them stand out more. Also a lot of the interior was the exact same as mine. Only difference was the steering wheel, gauges and shifter. Also for a $50k plus car new I would think they would add hood struts instead of the cheap prop rod.
Also I can get a c6 corvette with around 30k miles for around the same price.

Didn't GT500s have better seats? Some of them had leather wrapped dashes as well. But if that 5.4 doesn't sell you then I'd look for something else or just keep yours.

thats what i was gonna say to but wasnt sure so if your still looking to buy i think its a steal of deal and it dosn't actually look like the regular gt so Shelby FTW!

I was looking at a bunch of '06 thru '08 GT500's back in '09 when I was looking for a V6 for my wife and they were in the $36k - $40k range back then in Chicago and was considering an '08 GT500 on the dealers lot for $32k a few months ago here in Florida. I was going to offer $28k but it disappeared after sitting for about 6 months. I'd think you can talk him down from $34k.
