    new shelby

    The car is on the cover of a few rags this month, the one thing, speaking of details, that cought my eye is the hood scoop. I am sure its not functional but I really don't care about that, I just like hood scoops or vent and such. In the pics in the magazine you can see little rivits along the...

    Dealer markups against the law

    It really would not mater if it were against the law or not, all the dealer would have to do is sell the car to himself personaly then pay the tax and tag and turn back around and sell it as used and ask what ever they want for it. It would appear that with the shelby there would be allot of...

    New 2007 pkg. options ????

    I really liked the original show car extractors, but the final production car seem a little less apealing. That said I am still trying to get a price out of any of three dealers that I deal with on our fleet trucks. I realy would prefer the Shelby but if it is going to take 10 or more thousand...

    S H E L B Y

    I would have thought they could have moved it to the top of the rear window using some small led's like the used on the 06 town car or something similar, and kept the big chome letters. I liked it allot more than the little letters over to the side, I am sure that move saved them 20 or 30 bucks...

    New 2007 pkg. options ????

    Anyone have pics or ideas about the new option pkgs for 2007, I like the sound of the 07 GT appearance pkg, from what I can tell you can actualy combine the two, that would give the car a whole new look with differnt front and rear facias and a hood scoop. It kinda sounds like a roush or sleen...

    How long till we get msrp? (estimate)

    I would ask for a detailed contract in writing, complete with discosures of there factory allocation and projected delivery dates. They could just keep your money and wait till the car is not as hot as it is now. There will be dealers all over the country trying to buy the allocations of the...

    Premium prices

    I think the Halo effect is more than just showroom effect, since I also find it hard to beleive the GT500 buyer is going to settle for a minivan or expy in stead of the GT500. However I can see some marketing benifit more from all the press the Shelby car is getting, with countless magazine...

    How long till we get msrp? (estimate)

    I am going to try and remain optomistic, since ford has not released any numbers yet, that they will build as many as people want like they said in the beginning. They need the money so I hope they do the right thing. Besides I for some reason doubt the rights to shelby's name will pass with...

    Premium prices

    "Originally Posted by Johnman I hope the 30,000 workers Ford is about to lay off know that Ford is turning away eager buyers by the droves who want to buy a premium, high profit $50,000 car. I know that satisfying Shelby 500 demand would hardly be enough to save all of these jobs, but...

    How long till we get msrp? (estimate)

    With all the problems Ford has, I would think that when they said they would make as many of them as demand would call for, they would follow through. Why in these times when Ford is closing 7-9 assymbly plants do to being over capcity in its production ability compared to demand they would...

    Anyone else anxiously waiting for the '06?

    I ordered an 05 Black GT the day the order bank opened. I ordered under my fleet number and now over a year later it still shows as clean and unscheduled. I am thinking it will never get built at this point. I also no longer want it. I am now trying to convince them They need to sell me a GT 500...

    2005 Mach 1

    I am interested in that, When and who said they would never make another Mach 1, about a year and a half I had some dumb a$$ salesman trying to sell me a Mach for $1000 over sticker because it was so limmited. Ford had already said the car was nolonger limited right after it came out. A few...
