RogerS Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 I think what your saying is that when Ford found out it was a Shelby they did not give you the rate........it that correct? And just for the record the 1995 Cobra "R" model was also listed as a Mustang GT and titled as such. It was the base car that the model was built from.

ShelbyCobra826 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 I haven't received my title yet from GA to have the car registered in NC, but I believe that Michael listed it as a "Shelby GT" in one place and an "SGT" in another. I'm not very familiar with the details on this, but I do remember that he went out of his way to get the car documented as a Shelby everywhere he could, but I'm guessing that most dealers treat it just like any other Mustang GT when completing the paperwork.

04Retro Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 In most States it will be registered as a Mustang GT per the Ford vin #. Your insurance company will treat it as such--THUS it is highly recommended you have a talk with your Insurance comapny and get an adjustment for added value otherwise in an accident they will just pay you for a Mustang GT. You need to do more then just call-get a rider on your policy for the added value or you are vastly underinsured. As for Ford Finance-they can do what they want depending on how cars are selling...until recently they wouldn't give good rates on normal GT's...GT500s and Shelby GT's are such low production vehicles and generally 'move' so they haven't decided to offer 'deals' and exclude them. Their money, their rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reino Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Back to the title/registration question. My SGT is titled as follows Year - 2007 Make - Ford Model - Shelby GT The dealer actually asked me what I wanted for the Model and said "you might as well put Shelby GT, your paying for it" I thought it would be nice to have "Shelby GT" on the title. As for the insurance, State Farm thinks its a Mustang GT. I didnt even think of putting a rider on the policy. I will do that tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much what I expected from my discussions with Michael down in GA. Unfortunately, when it was titled in NC, this was overridden and it went back to the standard 2007 Ford Mustang Coupe 2-door, or whatever. It appears that NC has recently linked to the national manufacturer database (or whatever)... As for the insurance, State Farm thinks its a Mustang GT. I didnt even think of putting a rider on the policy. I will do that tomorrow. While it took about a month for my State Farm agent to go back and forth with the underwriters, they finally got it right. Luckily, I started this process when the car was ordered, not received, so everything was in order when it arrived. Basically, they bumped the value up by $8K for the conversion, but kept the class listed as a standard Mustang GT. That way, in the event of a total loss, the payout is $38K (I have confirmed this multiple times since), but the rates are very similar to a standard Mustang GT as only the increased value, and not the performance, is being recognized.
