Grabber Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 I read that the 2007 GT/CS was going to be a Limited Edition car. I read that in 1968 about 4,400 California specials were produced and that at least double that amount will be produced for 2007. Does anyone know if these low production levels are true and if this will enhance the value of this model. I am the First one to have a GT/CS in Vancouver,WA . I was able to order it in June for 1K over invoice. At that time they did not even know the car exsisted or what it was. Now they have their 2nd GT/CS on the lot for 40K. The ADM factor has kicked in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadTony Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 I saw a white vert at Vancouver Ford around noon today, was that you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grabber Posted September 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 That White Vert is the car In Vancouver that I said had the 40K price tag on. That is the 2nd GT/CS in this town. The 1st one I ordered and picked up on 8/18. You must live out this way too ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1st one I ordered and picked up on 8/18. You must live out this way too ? My guess is, they won't be worth collecting. One reason is, they are not keeping track of how many are produced ie no different VIN then standard GT. Also, retro parts are already available to change the front/back fascia so, you can make any GT a CS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtoneill Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 :bandance: I bought my GT/CS vert in Lynden, WA from Pioneer Ford for $560 under invoice using the X Plan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grabber Posted September 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 Did you pay under invoice or under MSRP. As you know there is about 2400 dollars difference ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paid $560 under the invoice price. I cannot believe people are paying the prices they are paying. I had no problem using the X Plan at the dealership and no bitching over the final price!

I had no problem using the X Plan at the dealership and no bitching over the final price! You got a great deal. Congrats. The mustang is one of Fords bread and butter cars. some of the dealers (most) are marking ADM's on all the stangs. Today I saw $1900 ADM's on the mustang V-6 GT's over at Vancouver Ford in Washington. The company I work for is a Ford partnerand I also have access to 2 PINs a year but they are useless in the state I live in on Mustangs. Hopefully that will change soon. Can you post a photo of your car. Would love to see it. Rob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AwakeinAZ: Ya you can make a clone of anything, but there is something to be said about having a "original" car, with a title that proves how it was ordered. Time will tell. We will probally all be 6 feet under by that time, so it really wont matter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five Oh B Posted September 29, 2006 Report Share Posted September 29, 2006 Did you pay under invoice or under MSRP. As you know there is about 2400 dollars difference ! X-plan is roughly the same amount (+/- $50) as invoice. X-plan buyers currently get a $500 rebate on 2007 Mustangs (inlcuding GT's and GT/CS's, but excluding Shelbys) that the general public does not get. We have already sold 3 GT/CS's, we have one on our lot available today for sale at MSRP (no ADM's of any kind!), and we have two more coming soon that will also be listed at MSRP. These cars can be ordered at-will by any Ford dealership, there is no allocation system limiting orders, and Ford expects to build about 8,750 of them for 2007, but will build as many as ordered. The only thing that is currently limiting dealers in any way in ordering the GT/CS is the commodity restrictions that apply to all 2007 Mustang GT's (18" wheels & manual transmissions are in short supply thus delaying orders for GT's with these two items). This is a one year only model with the Bullitt coming for 2008. I have been considering a GT/CS for myself. D-plan is more than 4% less than X-plan, so I'm tempted, but the thought of giving up some horsepower (versus my 2003 Mach 1) and getting a heavier car to boot is giving me 2nd thoughts. Also, I'm seen them in all 4 colors (black, white, redfire, and vista blue) and feel that a bright color is needed to really set off the stripes, front air dam and rear diffuser. Ford supposedly will offer a 5th color (screaming yellow) after the 1st of the year on GT/CS's. I'd like to see torch red and grabber orange available, as well, before seriously considering an order for one to replace my Mach 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grabber Posted September 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2006 Five O BE: What information do you have on the Bullitt. Will it be built on the same platform code ? What kind of availability do you expect. Ya got any inside information you care to share. Also I heard the order banks for the GT Shelby are not opening untill Jan for that car. Seems that is a little late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
