Not saying that the car is worth the asking price but I just wanted to show that it has a little more in it than some people think. I know that they're losing money on this deal, just look at what it has in it. I saw it in person last year at SEMA and it's pretty cool, but not for me.
The balance between styling, aftermarket features and cost that influenced so many aspects of the 2005 Ford Mustang by 3dCarbon is evident right down to its wheels and tires. 3dCarbon tightened the tire-to-fender gap by integrating a body kit to emphasize the wheel stand and improve the suspension. A high-profile rear wing and other exciting accessories create the new "Boy-Racer"โ€”one that is sure to turn heads even when the car is parked. The "Boy-Racer" body kit and accessories will also be available through Ford Racing Performance Parts distributors.

actually if that is everything I can do that entire car retail for less. About $52-55K including installs and the price of the car and thats being generous. And now realize they are a business and get to do either A.) WHOLESALE PRICING or they B.) They go to companies for sponsorships and get less than Wholesale and finally C.) both A and B. Trust me I have been around and helped build too many show cars, they are not loosing money they are banking on you buying the titles of the car. I too have seen it in person and it is a gorgeous car but they do NOT have $63K in this car if this is all they have, it better be a kick butt system in that trunk that was not mentioned. I would offer $50K and if hey say no well I'm Not saying it is not a nice car it really is but not worth the money they want.

I love the seats in that GT, probably over a grand each, but you could probably recreate that car for 15K over regular mustang price, maybe cheaper.

You would probably spend about $20K over cost of car to recreate, you could substitute some parts and keep it around $15K. The seats last I checked I found them about $1100 each.
