2008vistablue Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Any chances they are going back to the nicer butt style of the 07-09 shelbys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanted2b Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 That would be nice if they did. Liked it a little better. But I never look at my butt. LOL To big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svttim Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 PLUS 1 Dont you mean 2. OK, really, yes the rear of the car is changing a bit. I believe they are the same tailights but more vertical, simular to our old boring tail lights. I hear the best part is the LED's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burning Blue Star IV Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 07-09 is bland, outdated, played out, and boring. Exactly...way too plain looking and boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2010KonaBlueGT Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 07-09 is bland, outdated, played out, and boring. And has the aerodyamics of a Semi Trailer. EDIT: Do not resist change, it will happen without you. Phill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07SGT4578 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 The 07-09 is not as porky though. I will stick with my 07. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hydroz Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 i love the 05-09 butt the back on 2010-2012 look like a donkeys ass it looks really fat, i hate the shape of them they dont look retro or nice at all in my eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whammer Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 The rear on the 10-12's looks best on a black car, it's at least liveable. I think the 13 will be a compromise between the 2 styles. I guess we'll see fairly shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hourigan218 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Liken had said before, why don't they go more like the 67 or 68 shelby's ( the cougar tail lights). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsarkis Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 I sure hope not or I will NOT buy the 2013, and most def. not the new style coming out (smaller, lighter, IRS...what I thought these were muscle cars not sports cars...). These late models are the best looking cars imo, although I do like the 07-09s more than almost anything else on the road, their just not where the 10+ are in appearances & hopefully 13s. If not I've got a keeper no biggie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2scmustangs Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 I LIKE TO SEE NEW TAIL LIGHTS DIFFERENT FROM THE MUSTANG ,,,LIKE THEY DID BACK IN 1967-1970 SHELBYS ;;; BUT I WILL TAKE WHAT EVER FORD PUTS THEM ;;;; IM JUST WAITING TO ORDER : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffJ Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 This is my buddies 2011 which he customized. Those are 2005 tail lights messaged a bit. Love the retro look, but would not be good for 2013. Things must always progress... Can't wait to see what it will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svttim Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Funny the bashing going on here from a simple question. From what I know, the GT500 will not look like the 10-12, nor will it look like the 07-09. So there New front end as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a grand tourer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, many set these cars up for track use. Isn't that a sports car? It's not a grand tourer. It's a total GT. Dual zone climate control, power steering, high stance when stock, somewhat soft suspension, huge nav screen, nice stereo, mood lighting - not a sports car.

Grabber Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Everyone has them and the shelby letters spread out. Dare to be diferent keep the 07 but stock!!! My SHELBY letters are in the stock position. They are staying that way too ! I appreciate the 2010 - 2012 look of the GT500 as it has now grown on me. I still do like the 07 - 09 better, but that's just me. Looking forward to seeing everyone get there new cars. It's so much more economical for me to just enjoy seeing you all get your new rides and see them at car shows and all the events. My wife and I are very proud to own the first run of the 500's and if we ever get another one....there is no way we will buy brand new. We will Waite a couple years and buy someone's garage queen for 20K less then they paid for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertlane Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 I wasn't a fan of the 2010-2012 rear end, however, it grew on me over time - especially in the GT500 form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of opportunities to purchase low milage GT500s that have been well taken care of by their initial owner. GT500s are still very deisrable but the frenzy (and ADMs) of the first couple of production years is gone. I actually paid more for my '07 with 3,000km on it than what I paid for my '09KR with just 252km. Buying a slightly used vehicle is a smarter move from a financial standpoint.

Dual zone climate control, power steering, high stance when stock, somewhat soft suspension, huge nav screen, nice stereo, mood lighting - not a sports car. That's sorta where I was going. Didn't understand the "muscle car" reference. I'm not sure I could identify a modern muscle car in the current manufacturers line up (road legal that is).
