Grabber Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 I know a dealer in Virginia that has one(or two) available, price negotiable. (not over 5000) Wow, That's a great deal. Are they on the lot or on order ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grabber Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 This thread is about a 2008 model! Can put a returnable deposit down, but not able to order yet. Five Oh said that the 2008 allotment letters are not out yet. They are assumming that they are getting 1 or 2, and that is fine. Some dealers that got 1 last year might get none this year per my dealer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My2nd'Stang Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 I was "first on the list" at a small non-SVT, non-PA winner dealership for a 2007 Shelby GT500 at MSRP. Then was told that the first one would go to the dealership owner ( Was told later that he got a Vista Blue coupe with Tungsten stripes ) anyway, it now looks like I am "first on the list" for a 2008 at MSRP. I'm beginning to wonder what "first on the list" means. Good Luck to us all. DLW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stangcrazy Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 :banana piano: I'm first on list and have been paying 300 week refundable since Nov 6 06, I can't wait to get car and cruise her home, Those cars are great to have and share like LSR did for my family.

One has been delivered and the other is scheduled for 1/29/07 Coupe/Blue with white stripe. As far as lists go. Yes we started with a "LIST" of wannas and then took the first two resonalble offers and they put up money to secure they would get one. no more list for 2007--have a list for 2008 and soon as we get to start ordering all on the lists will be contacted. also have a short list for the "Shelby GT" for 2007,but have not priced this puppy yet. ebay is reporting between $1,500 and $5,000 over for this car--only 6,000 of them, so it will be hot too i do believe. Not like the GT500,but hot. Bud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud First Off Don't Come on here and insult people who put their names on list expecting to be treated fairly by certain dealerships, which in turn got screwed over by that same dealer... and CALL THEM WANNAS. They are not WANNAS cuz they would not pay your 25-30K Over MSRP. They WANNA Kept their own money in their own pocket !!! And by saying that you ACT as if they are not good enough for this car, if they wont pay YOUR price for it. First two reasonable offers my you mean the two people that would pay the most for your two cars... And what do you mean you havent priced the Shelby GT... The MSRP price has already been set.

Not like the GT500,but hot. Bud Gee Bud. Maybe I should explain further. When Ford Motor Company announced that they would actually produce the Shelby GT500, I called the local dealerships and found that most already had a "LIST of wannas" at about 10 to 20 deep (yeah, that many people on each list) and then I emailed a dealership that was not so local, and not as well known in the area. When they answered my email with "Thank you for your interest in the 2007 Shelby GT(500) and Congratulations on being the 1st one on the waiting list!". I drove down the next day and spoke directly with the new car sales manager who incidently, didn't know what I was talking about when I spoke of the Shelby GT500, so I had to explain it to him. (Everytime I said Shelby GT500 he kept looking at the GT40 they had sitting in their show room) Anyway, I paid the deposit required by this dealership and had paperwork drawn up stating "#1 on list for Shelby Mustang GT(500)", "To be sold at MSRP at time of delivery." Okay, so let me see...according to you, Bud. You make a list, and then take the 1st two "resonalble" (your spelling, not mine) can I safely assume the two highest, offers? You, Bud, in your own words have made the point to my earlier post, thank you. DLW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I wonder if it is just an over priced car that will never really become a collector that the older Shelby cars are. After all they did not produce that many of the older Shelby's. Maybe I should wait or buy a Shelby GT or Boss ?? What are your thoughts?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMCBOSS Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 You willing to wait 10 years! Thats about how long it took for the older Shelbys to show some collectibility. Forget about the future collectibility aspect - just get it and start enjoying! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
