Thanks SSsnake....the car seems to have everything you mentioned,the pulley on the supercharger says steeda on it. Is that aftermarket or a ford option.If you punch it at 20mph in 1st or 2nd you can literally melt the tires on this car.He wants to race my 2010 ss camaro and I am running out of excuses.

Congrats to your son....................the GT500 40th is a fantastic machine and my favorite I might add.

Yep, Steeda was not an option. Do you know if the supercharger is stock? As you could get the 40th with "SuperSnake upgrades" ie. TVS (coupe or convertible) or Kenne Bell (coupe only) however, with a Steeda pulley it is most likely stock.

 

Lol, I don't think you're going to find an excuse that'll work.

Or the car was a stripe delete car. The window sticker you got will tell you.

Hi my name is Steve and my father had started this thread. Here are a couple pics of the car!!! I love it and can't wait to find out more about the vehicle.

 

 

Hi Steve!

 

Like tlitz said, they ALL came with with (special) silver stripes so the previous owner must have removed them.

 

I can't imagine why they would remove the stripes 'cause that's what makes this car unique and to tell you the truth I've never been partial to red cars but when I saw my 1st 40th (and it was red), I said WOW that's sharp! (The silver stripes really make them pop).

 

Beautiful car man! BTW, are you and your dad going to Calisle next weekend?

Does anyone know how many 07 Shelby GT500 40th Anniversary Torch Red non-racing stripes were made? I have one and I was told there were only 20 made, I just want to make sure the facts are straight.

If you're asking about 07XL0125 then yes there were 20 red coupes with no additional cost options just like #215. Keep in mind that this build number has nothing to do with stripes as ALL 40th Anniversary cars had stripes, no such thing as a stripe delete on the 40th Anniversary cars.
