JeffJ Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 (edited) We were just told a couple months ago it wasn't ending. Interesting. Really? By who? I thought that the announcement came out long ago? Edit, I was thinking the announcement that came out when the V8's stopped being done about a year ago. Correct, I don't see where the V6 builds being stopped was ever announced. Last I see is that the stats for the 50th cars came out but that the regular V6 cars were still being built as of October? http://www.teamshelby.com/forums/index.php/topic/89427-2012-shelby-gts-v6-50th-anniversary-build-numbers/ Edited January 7, 2016 by JeffJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAI-Steven Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Well let me double check, perhaps I'm wrong. Steve While I'm waiting to hear back from our sales director, I noticed that the GTS is no longer shown on our Shelby.com website and I don't see any open GTS orders in the system. But we'll have a definite answer shortly. Stay tuned. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Well the good news is that my memory is not failing, the bad news is that yes the GTS is a closed program, both the V6 & V8 versions. Now I have to convince our sales director that I knew that and was just making sure he knew that Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAI-Steven Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Is the 2012 GTS packages still available ? I too have a grabber blue mustang it would be so nice to have it converted to a Shelby so late in its life.. Any info is helpful. With a quick glance it appears that Jason is the owner of the last GTS built. Congrats to Jason Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMargraves Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 How long before SAI releases build numbers? I think I had the last one built but not sure. Any such luck of the GTS being continued on future mustangs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMargraves Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Thanks Steve. I will also have to thank Frankie M. And Ralph. The sales staff @SHELBY are simply the best! I wish it wasn't 1750 miles to Las Vegas because it would be such a privilege to attend this years BASH.. They look like such a great way to see all the SAI built SHELBY's. And the meet owners of these great cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the meet owners of these great cars Jason, Build numbers will be released in the near future. I believe there is only one program before I'm able to focus on the V6 GTS program. The V8 GTS and the 50th GTS build numbers have already been posted. In regards to attending the Bash, not everyone who attends the Bash brings their car so all that's stopping you is a airplane flight. Some folks who don't bring their car but want to participate in the driving parts of the Bash go and rent a Mustang at the McCarren airport. Others who don't bring their car and aren't interested in the driving parts also fit right in as there's plenty of folks that they can hang out with.

Steve Very true Steve, in fact except for the Bash where I took delivery of my 50th Annv GTS, I never had a shelby at the bashes I attended..But still always had fun.

Glenn Greenwell Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) After looking at the GTS Upgrade package at $12,500 that appears to also be around the sweet spot for the first Shelby GT Conversions. I guess the days are gone for another large Shelby run of non aspirated V8 GT's at a reasonable price. I never understood the GTS program nor liked the way they did the font on the GTS side stripes. I believe to some extent SAI needs to go back to its roots and get an assembly line going again and turn some cars with a reasonable price point for the conversion and get them out the door in less than 90 days. gg Edited January 22, 2016 by TAPD117 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMargraves Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Long gone but not forgotten. But I have high hopes that the GTS returns, and returns at a price point everyone can afford. I do want to see the deepdraw hood on the 15 ish body style. Sai hint hint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Whoovie Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 Many Thanks, Steven. I would point out that I spent quite a bit more than the base $12,500. I guess the main difference in price of the current offerings and the GTS is the use of Carbon Fiber over Fiberglass and the mandatory inclusion of the cast 20" wheels. Seems like there is now a preference to outsource the body parts rather than cast the fiberglass themselves. The upshot being that I would have to spend 25% more than I did previously to get a Shelby GT (rather than a GTS) but wouldn't have the brake upgrade, the engine capsor the interior upgrade. To get approximately the same as what I ordered would be about +70% on what I spent. To be fair that would have carbonfiber vs fiberglass body parts, and both better wheels and brakes. however that a lot more cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMargraves Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Steven, Any word yet on build numbers for the v6 GTS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inactive Account 1 Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 The only build numbers that I know were released for the GTS were the V6 and V8 50th Anniversary Edition models. There may still be some builds in the works for other GTS years of V6 and V8 which is why they were not released yet. They usual do not release numbers until all cars in the program are completed. Here are 50th numbers: http://www.teamshelby.com/forums/index.php/topic/89427-2012-shelby-gts-v6-50th-anniversary-build-numbers/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAI-Steven Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Steven, Any word yet on build numbers for the v6 GTS? There are still five V6 GTS builds that are unaccounted for meaning they are still in queue but not built. I've asked the sales department for an update so once I hear back we'll be able to get a better idea on when final build numbers will be available.
