Amigo GT500 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 I had ordered one GT500 on July 2 from a local dealer. Without knowing the ETA and receiving bad service from the dealer I decided to cancel my order. So now I am figthting to get my $1K deposit....... But the story is that I started checking the Shelby on ebay and autotrader.com so after several conversations with a dealer in California the deal is done. I got the Shelby with SVTPP, Electronics Pkg, Recaro seats, Glass Roof. The final price was $53,550 + $84 for documentation fee. I will pay TTL here in Florida when I receive the car.... What do you think? was it a good deal? Is there any difference with California cars vs. other States cars? Thanks....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

txcobra Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Amigo, beautiful car with the perfect set of options (in my opinion). That price looks to be around "X-plan" / invoice, is that right?...looks like a GREAT deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crushinator Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Congrats on a beautiful GT500! You're gonna love it! However, the seats look terrible in that color combo. I mean, really really bad. Therefore, you should trade me your red striped Recaro's for my white striped regular seats! :happy feet: Just messin'. Enjoy it!

That price looks to be around "X-plan" / invoice, is that right?...looks like a GREAT deal. The window sticker says $59,420 so I think that I got a good deal for $53,550....almost $6K less!!

blown9350lx Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 What dealer did you use? I went to Sawgrass Ford in Broward ordered mine and got the best service especially since I am in Iraq I ordered my car it came in they stored it in the warehouse next to the owners Ford GT they took pics for me and made sure that the car was on the enclosed transport safe before it left for Tampa and didnt remove any of the plastics as per my request. Enjoy the car I usually go to Broward to visit friends and family and pass by towers hope to see that nice looking car there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The California cars are much faster than the 49 State cars, and fortunately you also purchased the fastest color. Win Win deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdiddle Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 Good deal on the car, you'll be very happy when it arrives. However, the above poster is mistaken....while California cars are faster, I think he confused the colors. It's the Red/White combo like mine which are the fastest, not the White/Red combo like yours....Easy mistake to make though, so all is forgiven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darewinder Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 6k off msrp is a seriously good deal? was x-plan involved. Great combo btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amigo GT500 Posted July 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 6k off msrp is a seriously good deal? was x-plan involved. Great combo btw I financed standard loan thru Ford Credit, 40K, 60 month. That was the reason that I pulled the trigger....it was a hell of deal!! The only thing that I missed was the car cover but anyway I can live without it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
