Charity raffle of 08 GT 500 convertible
A friend of mine told me about a charity that is raising money by raffling off a 2008 Convertible GT500 -black with red stripes. For anyone interested the details can be found here: [/align]http://www.centerforenrichedliving.org/[/align]The drawing is in April so the winner will be able to enjoy the convertible this summer! 
I bought my tickets, its for a very good cause! Good Luck!

I checked with the charity, the car is Black with Red Stripes. Apparently there were very few "official pictures" available to the Charity so they had to use one that didn't match color wise.

wtf? why not just raffle off a v6 mustang? thats usually what people do.. one of my good friends won a 05 v6 in a highschool prom raffle.. they could save $40k and put it in the charity by getting a 6'er? gt500 is over kill for that purpose and not very smart IMO

Very smart analysis there...the only thing I could think is that the car was donated by someone...its the only way I see them making $$...otherwise they would have to sell lots of ticket to get out of the red.

If The Center does not sell at least 600 tickets, it reserves the right to pay half of the collected ticket money in lieu of the car.

Not sure how they ended up with the GT500, I understand the actual car is waiting at a dealership outside of Chicago, and it is black with red stripes.
I can tell you this, I bought tickets, and if I win, I will be glad it is not a V6…. Just not sure where I will keep another one, but I can think of worse problems to have, and it is for a good cause!
