As for talking nonsense ? it's statements such as Ford and/or dealers dont decide the prices, the consumers do. Not only is that nonsense but ridiculous as well.. First off it's the dealers who decide to mark up cars like the GT 500 20k above MSRP and not the consumers and although I agree the GT500 isn't your average Mustang and realize it's going to cost above sticker ? there's no excuse for these greedy ass stealerships to mark them up by 20k or more above sticker.. On the other hand, even if they just marked them at 5-8k above sticker ? this would still provide more than enough profit while at the same time provide all their loyal customers and not just those select few the opportunity of purchasing one as a means of showing their appreciation for their many years of customer loyalty instead of stabbing them in the back, it's no wonder why Ford is in the mess it currently finds itself in...Then how about the Shelby GT ? other than the car being modified at Shelby Automobiles in Las Vegas, there's absolutely nothing above the Stock Mustang GT performance wise other than the very same FRPP suspension and cold air packages that anyone can purchase and install on their Mustang GT from Ford Racing...Therefore you tell me how in the hell the Shelby GT is so above the average Mustang GT that warrants these stealerships from marking them up 10-16k above MSRP ? next I suppose the consumers are also at fault for that mark up as well huh ? You talk about nonsense, well it doesn't get much better than that and until these stealerships realize their customers come first and are responsible for putting money in their greedy ass pockets they'll have nothing else left to blame except for their own self centered greed as the reason for putting Ford and themselves straight out of business, it's as plain and simple as that..As for the Shelby GT 500 ? your statement about their being no production plans for 08 ? that's also nonsense as 08 will be the final year of production for the GT 500 unless your referring to model year 09 ? which is scheduled for release in mid to late 08..I'm not quite sure about the base Camaro but I'm pretty sure that when GM comes out with their special edition Z-28, not only may it equal the Shelby GT 500 performance wise ? but may also surpass it and you can also be pretty certain when Daimler/Chrysler releases the Challenger R/T with it's 6.1 HEMI odds are it just might surpass the GT 500 as well and if not ? you can bet that when they come out with their limited edition Challenger T/A ? and as much as I hate to say this but it's more than likely the Shelby GT 500 won't even be capable of matching it let alone being within comparison of it...
