I must agree to that whole heatedly.
There was a guy here saying he though all Shelby's were overpriced which I don't see HOW he thought that unless he ran into only dealerships with huge mark-ups.

I again though must say the GT350 is definitely way overpriced.
They know they can sell them at that keeping the production numbers
super low for the collectors I would say.

I'm not a HUGE fan of it myself although it's not an abomination or anything.
But that's opinion.

As far as overpricing I believe it is that because of the performance for the money.

friend of mine picked up the 624hp version. it is heavily marked up. but my friend has Shelby connections, i dont think he paid a lot of markup.
he likes it a ton. he also has a 67 GT350 with a Paxton SC. so i can see why he got the new one.
i believe the markup is a collector price that people will buy.
i like the GT350, besides the huge markup, very nice Shelby!

There is no denying that is a sweet car, I love the way the exhaust come together in the middle out back.

One of the things that really bothers me about it as stupid as it may sound,
is the exhaust location.

I don't like that location at ALL.

I visited the Shelby factory two weeks ago and there were no less than 4 being built when I was there.

I don't mind Shelby making a ****load of money and jacking up the price on the GT350.

It's a race car, just like the '65 GT350/R as well.

But the name needed dropped from the SVT model YEARS ago.

It's an SVT product and his name is stealing the spotlight, and increasing the price.
