Default OH MY GODDDD!!! SHELBY GT.

Just went to my ford dealer and was looking around, I looked at the Shelby GT it was a 2007 white with silver stripes and black interior, it was beautiful, better than the GT500 IMO. it was $44,000 w/ the dealership markup. After that I looked at 2 mustangs I may get, one wasa black 2007 GT/CS, and the other was a performance white GT auto, with 18' polished wheels.


to anyone with the Shelby GT, I congradulate you on an awesome car, one of the truly finest automobiles I have ever seen.

the shelby GT's look great, but it's not worth the money.

the body kit is not worth that much and the CAI it has doesnt do much. it's been rated at 319 HP. the mufflers aren't crazy so i dont understand why it should be 60K (after dealer markup).

imo, buy a GT, get a saleen body kit, get a CAI/tune, some SLP loud mouths, and you'll be pushing out more power for less and still look amazing.

thats what Im doing.....well not that crazy, Im getting either the GT/CS or the regular GT, if I get the GT I'll put the CDC classic chin spoiler on, I already have SLP Loudmouths on my six banger, so I'll switch them to the GT, CS6 side scoops, CAI+Tune, and maybe some other goodies.

this SGT was only 44k. not too bad.

Get the black CS/GT. It has the same side scoops and front and rear fascias as the Shelby GT. So your body is already done. Then add the FRPP handling kit. Add the front grill (which is for sale in lots of places), 18" FRPP black bullitts and hurst shifter. Add the FRPP X-pipe and mufflers and anyone's CAI and tune and there you have it. I know, I have a black Shelby GT and it is the best looking Mustang Ford ever made, period.

Then you'll have everything except the stripes, Shelby hood scoop and the Shelby badging.

got mine for 39. plus thats not the point that you can buy all the parts and be faster, you can never make a regular mustang gt a shelby, and mainly thats what your paying for the history. plus the SGTs are acctually built at shelby unlike the gt500 which is 100 percent fords doing.

The one thing I don't like on the Shelby GT is that cheesy looking hood scoop. Otherwise I like the look of the car.

it's nice. but it's nowhere nearly as unique, powerful, or gorgeous as the Shelby GT500, IMO.

you mean the ford gt500.

I think the GT500 is a bit much, the SGT looks like regular S197's except a few subtle changes which combined makes it look like one hell of a stang. plus your not buying performance or handling, your buying a name, thats why I wouldnt mind paying the $44,000..... although I have some plans forthe GT.
