kaylan1521 Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 I would go with the GT/CS. Simply because it is a limited editon car albeit with no additional power as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT500KR Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 Between the two I would jump on the California Special! :banana piano: He would also jump on this, so don't take his word for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUFDRAFT Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 Asking our opinions on this is like asking us to help you pick out a tie! You're the one paying for it and driving it - you should make this call yourself. :happy feet: We love them both. I bought the GT because I wanted to personalize it - my way. If you mostly want a turn-key car - jump on the CS. There is no "wrong" decision here - they both Rock. Keep us posted, you hear? Ruf - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90GT Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Buy the GT/CS. The only reason I didn't get one is because they didn't have it in a silver color. Check out this car: It's basically a GT/CS with the black FRPP wheels and spoiler delete. I love the way this car looks, clean, simple and down right evil. You could do the same by adding the wheels and swaping out the trunk lid for one without the spoiler. Or just switch the spoiler for the one off the GT500, that would look sweet too.

Grabber Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 They are both great cars. My Wife and I own a GT/CS and love it. It is a 2007 model run only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, I'd have gone for one Rob but the dang thing isn't available in Satin Silver, Tungsten or Alloy. Now I'm considering doing a front end swap with a GT/CS front clip.

90GT Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 The front clip is nice. I think it's the best one out there. All the other lip spoilers look tacked on vs the GT/CS front. I think it would add a nice unique look to my car. Now all I have to do is find out how much it will cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

90GT Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Hang on tight. Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of Ruf. Then there's the problem of what to do with the stock front clip. I'll see what happens but I'm most likely going to stick with my only performance mods rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

call911fm Posted January 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 How about a Shelby GT instead? Just a thought. i was thinking that too a couple months ago until i talked to a dealer who told me the markup would be at least 15,000 over sticker price of 36,000. no thanks ! i'll stick with something close to what i can afford . someday i'll have a shelby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call/shop around. You never know what might happen. There are some dealers left out there that will work with you. Nothing ventured, nothing gained and anything is possible.

rpenna Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 I like the looks of the CS, but what attracted me to this year's Mustang was the retro look. That being said, I'm a fan of solid color interior and exteriors, blues and blacks, so that's what I went with. It's all personal preference, it'll look great to everyone else either way, so just make sure it looks great to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcain Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Don't know if this helps any but I had the same issue. I went with a full blown all option except auto Black GT. The reason being is if you add one modification to the GT/CS it will take away from the value, secondly I can't justify the additional 1300.00+ option for the side scopes, lower bumper insert, two tone interior (Which I do not like the door panels look very cheap with the light plastic, JMO) and two black stripes that take away from the lines of the car. It doesn't matter none of the Mustangs are going to be worth anything more unless it's a Shelby and even those will go down in price, unless you place into a storage unit and bring it the Barret Auto Auction say in like 25 Years. I'd rather pay the difference in a set of Lowering springs, shocks, subframe connectors and other goodies. Or just buy the MAC exhaust Headers, prochamber and axle back for the 1100.00 and you'll see the GT/CS in the side window as you pass by. LOL RUF, For the look your wanting I've been told and seen first hand a set of Eibach Pro in front and Eiback Sport in the Rear will make your car sit level. I've not installed springs on my car yet but I think I'm going to go with the Sport line for the stiffer ride and lower stance or I may just buy the Eibach CoilOver so I can set it where I want it, don't know yet time will tell.

call911fm Posted January 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 you guys are all helping me out thanks !! i know the reg gt is the most logical choice even more with an x-plan and i can add the upgrades into the financing ( right ? ) i just like the look of the front clip . even more since they wont be making the gt/cs in 2008 which i will most likely have to order since most of the 2007's will be gone. also i have read many opinions on the cdc shaker and i really think they make the car look mean . i know it dont really help the performance much but is the look worth 800.00 bucks ? hard to decide too . as you all can tell i have thought alot about this for a long time and really want to get what i want the first time . ok i'm done .....lol thanks all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Sunshine Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 If you really like the Shelby GT, then call around to smaller dealerships and see if you can get an MSRP deal. At MSRP it's only a few thousand more than the GT/CS and already has mods done by SAI. The work may be frustrating, but if you can find a deal it'll be all the more sweet for many years to come.

KobraII Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 Hey man. Glad to see someone else reppin' Kentucky. That, and it looks like you live not even 10 minutes away from me! That's awesome. It's personal taste. I'd go out and look at a GT/CS, then a GT. You can make either the way you want to, so it's all good. Personally, I love the way the GT/CS's look, but people's GT's (cough RUF's cough) look down right nasty, and by that, I mean beastly. Whatever you want brother, I'll still roll with you.
