Local Dealership has 3 "Grabber Orange" w/ silver stripes. What's up with the $52k price tag? Weren't the '07 GT500's going at that price?

06RedfireGT · March 6th, 2008, 08:02 PM

What's a GT-C? I've never even heard of that.

Man that thing looks nice and low on those 20 inchers.... Not sure I'd go with a $4,500 brake kit with no real upgrade in power, but at least it doesn't look horrible. Think $16,000 would go a lot further though.... Factor in the discounts on stock factory GT premiums, that's more like a $22k to $24k upgrade.

Looks sweet, but way expensive and overpriced IMO.

usafimj · March 6th, 2008, 08:31 PM

It has about 20hp and 10 torq more than a regular GT. Buy a regular GT and do the same and it'll be cheaper

mustang fanatic · March 6th, 2008, 08:44 PM

Its all about the status.

05mustang_TT_charged · March 6th, 2008, 08:44 PM

05mustang_TT_charged · March 6th, 2008, 08:52 PM

if they are I am about to order me some in black

onederful100 · March 6th, 2008, 08:53 PM

the razors are all deep dish like that. but i wouldnt buy that, its about 11k more than what i paid for mine + the mods, i dont care about the shelby name, but for 11k less mine is faster and i like the looks of mine better too, but thats

06VistaGT · March 6th, 2008, 08:54 PM

Backside determine the deepness right? Come in 6 or 5 1/2 Backside.

06RedfireGT · March 6th, 2008, 08:57 PM

That is a hideous cloro combo

OC_GT · March 6th, 2008, 08:57 PM

It looked great, it sounded really good, it felt great, but the hurst shifter would be the first thing I'd replace with my MGW. I also notice the hood scoop was attached with rivets approx. 1-1/2 to 2" apart around the sides and back. Sorta looked like an afterthought.
+1 on the status...needless to say I left the dealership with a woody!

FireryDriver · March 6th, 2008, 08:57 PM

Umm only an idiot would by this car. In my humble opinion this shit wagon isn't going to sell more than maybe 2 cars. 1 to a rich idiot and the other to his spoiled rich daughter

oldernewbie · March 6th, 2008, 09:39 PM

Enough already, Mr. Shelby.

07gtmustang · March 6th, 2008, 10:23 PM

the mustang is way over maketed imo

In all seriousness I've heard that argument too many times to count... why is it a bad thing people like to make special editions of the Mustang? Were you going to try to collect them all Redfire?

I mean, the car is probably the best represented in terms of aftermarket support I've ever seen... and we all know lots of people would rather buy turnkey modded cars rather than mod their own.

I would much rather mod my own car, and definitely look forward to it, but why is it a bad thing for people to make cars for other people who don't want to mod their own? It certainly isn't diluting the Mustang name or anything... in fact with how over priced these premodded cars are, I'd say they go a long way towards bolstering the Mustang image....

Just my $0.02.

Still wouldn't buy the GT-C.
