Yes that is harsh but she is lying. Ebay does NOT write the sellers description which I've copied below. I've put in red how many times she called it a KR. Steve Call all your dealer nearby... you will be lucky if one dealer has one. Not only we have one, but we have the KR in the color that is most mesmerizing. 2008 Ford Shelby GT500 KR King of The Road limited edition Mustang features a 540 horsepower 5.4L supercharged V8 with Ford Racing Power Pack upgrade, 3.73:1 rear axle ratio, short throw shifter and a beefed up suspension. The exterior of this beast gets a unique Carbon composite hood, 18-inch wheels and special 40th Anniversary badges along with GT500 KR striping.

shelbymotorsports Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Almost forgot. I wonder how ebay got pics of a KR in front of Kimberleys Ford dealership and with Frontier Ford paper plates? Not someone I would want to buy a car from.

Stalwart Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 I would sue them for it, my neighbor did that when he signed a contract for a car, they had made a $20,000 mistake. He got the car . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shelbymotorsports Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Well Kimberly has put the KR back on ebay with a price increase of $35,665 I'm guessing the previous buyer is pissed off right now. Frontier Ford is looking worse in my book. Look at these two additonal fee's for purchasing a car from them: NEW VEHICLE PURCHASES: $8.75 tire fees will be applied to all new vehicles. $29 electronic DMV fee will be apply to all California residents purchases (OPTIONAL FEE, quicker reception of license plate and registration.) What the..... Since when does a buyer have to pay a "tire fee"? Also I've never heard of a fee for "a quicker reception of plates" and I live in California.

tekheavy Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Tire Fee!! So if the car had a spare tire, would you have to multiply that by 5?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
68S08KR Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Here in Nebraska when we go to register our vehicles we have to pay a tire fee of $1.00 per tire!! On the sales tax papers we received for our KR there was a tire tax of $5.00!!! WRONG!!! Tax Assessor couldn't change it- dealer could, but i wanted to get it registered so i went back to the dealer and told them they owed me $1.00 for a tire i don't have!! ( our salesman bought me a couple soda's, too much paper work after the fact!!) I also told them that they needed to reimburse all the GT500 owners also!! They told me they would check into it!! I didn't follow up on it!! So yes they do charge a tax for tires, just another way for revenue!!!! Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportscars Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 "IF" I remember correctly, submitting a bid constitutes entering into a legally binding contract with the seller. I believe you would have grounds to pursue legal action if you bid on the item. Too bad I didnt see it first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Morris Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 She can blame ebay all she wants, but she FORGOT to add the KR package price. She did everything she was told, but who every told here to list it forgot the KR package. Now if someone had hit the Buy It Now button you might could have a legal agruement there, but if they didnt NO HARM NO FOUL!!! I dont have the money to buy the car, but if I would have seen it I would have hit the button and made them PAY me for NOT buying it!!!! A couple of GRAND to let them off is better than losing 30K!

Bob Kocon 2417 Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Take a look again. The auction wasn't ended early. As Ken said, it ended as a buy-it-now sale. The person who used the buy-it-now needs to hire a lawyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MM I am with you on this one MM. I think whoever hit the buy it now button could tie up the sale of the car for a long time. The dealer just might pay a few grand to get out of it.

My complaint is that she should have been honest and told the TS folks who called thats what happened instead of blaming it on ebay. We all make mistakes and I'm sure she got yelled at by the dealership owner or GM. Just don't make up stories that can be so easily disproved.

California does charge $1.75 per NEW tire, doesn't matter if the tires are sold over the counter or come on a new car. My last several tire purchases were from Tire Rack so I guess because they are located in Nevada they don't charge this fee. I looked on Google and there are many class action suits because of this fee being charged by dealers lining their pockets by charging it on used cars and like the GT500 charging the fee 5 times instead of four. The best part is that these fees are not going to what they were intended for. The governator has raided this tire fee account several times.

GR40Freak Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 The buyer should hire a lawyer.. that's what this guy did when he bought a new M3 for MSRP and they told him they wanted more and it was a mistake as they forgot to add the dreaded MVA. After a TON of negative press for the dealer. 1.2M hits on the thread and 126 pages... He sued and won, got the car for the winning bid. http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=127993 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NordicShelby Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 I just read a few of the pages on the BMW forum and I truely believe the dealership will have to sell the car at the buy it now price. If it was me I would without a doubt sue them and get the car for $51,520 I hope the person who bid is on Team Shelby and tells us what ends up happening.

chuckstang Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 well, it is tricky because most ads have some fine print that mention they are not responsible for typos, misprints and so forth. I think they would not have to sell it for the 52k price or whatever it is. But on the other hand, a guy I work with was looking at a new acura and the salesman wrote up the bill of sale wrong, 10k under msrp and well my buddy signed it and then the salesman said oops, sorry, my mistake. And well, my buddy threatened to get a lawyer and they sold him the car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing "unreal" about new cars selling at the invoice price. The Shelby GT saw incentives and the KRs likely will also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
