Most of you remember that dude with the "GT-R" Mustang with the turbo rotory engine with custome heads and long tubes. We all laughed cause we knew there was no such thing as a GT-R Mustang and worse yet it had a Nissan badge on it.

Well they have one now and its over 40K

I do like the side scoops though and think the new GT500 could benefit from them although they add drag.

Is this a dealer package, or was the car delivered as this from ford?

I absolutely hate dealer packages and would endlessly make fun of this 'GT-R' if that's what this is. Some of the local ford dealers here think it is fun to add 500$ worth of cosmetic garbage to a perfectly good mustang (v6 or GT) and charge and extra 15k for it. Makes me sick.

That looks pretty good (if it weren't for the GT-R badging) - I like the functional shaker hood.

But, you're right; there's no hope for this guy:

I am not sure. I would wager its a dealer add on. They say the MSRP is something like $41K so that would be from Ford I think.
They do say the tint is part of the package and I know Ford would not tint a car that dark from the factory. That and the badges are Nissan badges (or perfect replicas)

That isn't a production Ford car, its a dealer add-on. Dealers are doing all sorts of things to the newer Mustangs. I've seen Shelby GT's, GT350's, everything under the sun. Dealers will stick anything on a car in order to improve their chances of selling it.

no offence dude but this tread plus all the pics and maybe even the car need to be burned before it adds to something that the fast and furse started other then the badges it is a sexy looking car even for a white stang

The side scoops and spoiler are part of the factory appearance package. The stickers and shaker are dealer ad ons. It looks ok except for the gt-r part.
