ingram4868 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Would that be 8,000 minus the KR's or 8,000 plus the KR's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertlane Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Would that be 8,000 minus the KR's or 8,000 plus the KR's? 8,000 GT500s plus an additional 1,000 GT500KRs. A total of +/- 9,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShelbyDude Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 I wonder what 2009's will be? CaptDave If they still build a 09 I would guess around 4,000 - 5,000. This is assuming 09 will be a short year and the new 2010 launched very early in 09. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShelbyDude Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 What? CaptDave That is what Ford claims! It is right on our certificates! It says, The Ford Performance Group and Ford Special Vehicle Team certify that Vehicle Identification Number 1ZVHT88S27XXXXXXX is a LIMITED-EDITION, 2007 Ford Shelby GT500 assembled at Auto Alliance International on 8/11/2006.

FiaCobra Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 You guys have to stop with this "Limited Edition" crap. If they limit production at 75,000, it's a "Limited Edition" run. Yeah, limited to 75k but limited none the less. Just drive and enjoy the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those aren't 2007 models! So whether they build a total of 20K, 30K or whatever, mine is still limited to only 8,150 coupes that were built in 2007!!!

diamondback Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 http://www.mustangheaven.com/Production%20.../shelbynums.htm Seems to me that these old prod numbers compared to the current prod numbers are equal if you take the increase in population from then to now. I wondering if anyone here would be willing to do some investigation and crunch the numbers to see what the prod numbers would be if population were taken into the equation.

diamondback Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Yeah it looks as though if you wanted the GT500 to be your collector you should have went the SGT route unless they dont make anymore after 2008! Yeah... RIGHT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah... RIGHT! Well according to Amy, there will be no more SGTs - at least in this body style. http://forum.teamshelby.com/forums/index.p...st&p=370463 So if you want one you need to get them while you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamondback Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 The SGTs didn't seel well because they were too pricey, two sets of markup and too many cuts out of the pie. They are still around even with rebates and in some cases, below invoice pricing. The same thing would happen to the KR if they made 8 thousand of them. I think the SGT'z have the best chance for collector status because of the low numbers. I was looking at a SGT once and I compared it against the Gt500 and for 6k more I believed that the gt500 is a better deal(IMHO). The dealer by me has the one from last year and this year still on his lot I gauruntee he would work some fantastic deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
