This one is one of 131 made, according to Ford Performance. Can't wait to know the numbers according to options.
2008 gt500 with 2900 miles, dropped 42,000 on her. Window sticker says 52,565 w/out dealer markup witch at the time was anywhere from 10-20,000 over sticker if I remember right.
red stripe package
premium trim
shaker 1000
ambient lighting


We installed a Corsa exhaust just as soon as we got her home. Now she sounds like a gt500 should.

What is the best muffler system for my 2010 GT500---I see you mention Corsa and was wondering if that is the best. On my 2008 GT I had Ford Racing mufflers and the drone inside at cruising speeds was terrible. I liked the throaty outside sound but not how it was inside. Sounds like this is not a problem with the Corsa. Any comments would be appreciated.
