Several Shelby GTs are being offered on ebay already. I saw one with a buy-it-now price of $45,000. Some are bidding for the price you are willing to pay over sticker.
What I found most interesting is the actual window stickers shown on the cars. Take the price of the GT, most are about $31,000, and then add the Shelby sticker. The sticker details what is added. The package costs $7,390 plus a $1,000 gas guzzler tax of $1,000, making the Shelby package $8,390 over sticker. That puts the sticker on most Shelby GTs at a total of about $40,000!! If you ask me, that's about $5,000 too much.
My dealer, who has a Shelby now in Las Vegas for the conversion, said he thought $6,000 would be about right and that would be 100 percent profit for Shelby.
I saw that many of the Shelby GTs had no bidders.
Going to be interesting to see what happens.
