SVTpower Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Really? no? Will Ford/Shelby build a 2010 GT500 ?? Remember in 2006? The GT500 will be a 2007/2008 with an optional 3rd year ( 2009 ) Shall we ask the question again??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springer Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Ford has been building the GT500, not Shelby (SAI). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuisA Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Why would they? There are plenty of 08 & 09 at dealer's lots ,and the ones that sell are selling for FAR less than they anticipated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twicebitten Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 they better not build a 2010kr ,they still have to sell the 08/09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SVT NAJA Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 One thing you can go to the bank with, if Shelby were to build a 2010 GT500 KR, I'm absolutely certain the hood wouldn't be a Plasan C.C. part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDT Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Why would they? There are plenty of 08 & 09 at dealer's lots ,and the ones that sell are selling for FAR less than they anticipated. "EXACTLY" the point!!!!!!!! Why did they build too many 08/09 KRs so they would sell at a loss?????? Why stop now when your on a roll?????????

amyb Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 This is a question that should be saved for Amy. I just messaged her and i'll report back here as to what she says. The KR is a great car, there are reasons why they are on lots and that has nothing to do with it being a great car. Could we build another KR down the road....yes, are there plans right now.....nope Amy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could we build another KR down the road....yes, are there plans right now.....nope Amy Yes, they are GREAT cars....I have one........Yes, there are reasons why they sit on lots, one being the economy is the worst we have seen since the great depression, others: 2) There aren't many people willing or capable of paying huge dealer ADM's on this vehicle. 3) Fairly high MSRP for this type of vehicle.

REAL ONE Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Frankly I would be more then upset if SAI built another KR. The KR is supposed to be and was represented to be a limited production car. If SAI were to build another KR I believe it would reflect poorly on them since the KR was sold and represented as a limited production car and to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the KR. That was one of its selling points. It would adversly impact the value of the 2008/2009 KRs which is unfair to those that bought them. If a company sells a product thats represented to be a limited production product and then shortly thereafter after productoin was supposed to end for good comes out with another run of the product it would make me shy away from buying anything represented as a limited production product from that company again and would likely cause others to feel the same. This is MHO. If its limited production, and sold as a limited production car it should not be produced again. Period. SAI is doing the right thing by not having any plans to do another KR. Now if in another 40 years were are all still around and they want to make an 80th anniversary KR....maybe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiaCobra Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 To be honest, I can't see SAI building another "KR" for at least 10 years....if ever. The next moniker will be the GT-350. Only wish I had free cash for that but, investment property in the Carolinas take precedent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiaCobra Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 2013-45th Anniversary, only 2 MY's away Again, I think they'll keep with the units they built for '08-'09 because a big deal was made about sticking to the original production numbers of the 68 GT-500's.

09KR0058 Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 I'd bet they bring it back in 2018, for the 50th anniversary. Can't wait to see what that will look like! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mach 1 1970 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 I hope there are enough people on this planet to buy all these Shelby's. I bet some of 07-08 get traded in on the 2011-2012. I for one still don't like the looks of the 2010 compared to the 07-09 style.It's just not the rear it's the whole package. It also seems like alot of 2010's are loaded with options like nav which adds 2K to the price. So if you trade your stuck with options you don't want. I am talking cars on the lot.

REAL ONE Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 It seems like the overwhelming consensus is the that the 07 to 09 body style is much nicer than the 2010 and 2011s. I agree. They have a more classic Mustang appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a more classic Mustang appearance. I concur. Had my '09 KR next to a 2010 GT-500 and no matter where I looked, I preferred the 05-09 S197 style. QUESTION: What are the 2010 + models called? The 05-09 are the S-197 models. What about the 2010 + models? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
