Food for thought Shelby is producing less Shelby GT's for '08 probably cause
there is no real demand to mark the cars up so much. Allot of BS if you ask
me. If Shelby had his head on right he would bury the hatchet with the GT350
name use (1984 Mustang GT350 20th anniversary lawsuit) and add some balls to
this bastard car he made.

Regarding prices dropping don't forget the addition of the Camaro and new
Dodge taking some of the sales in this market segment.

yeah that is what I am thinking. .but I go to autotrader.. they are all
selling that range. . question is what really is their bottom dollar..
I havent even driven anything newer than a new 03 cobra and 04 mach1.. not
even sure if it handles well or what..

deal is written up contigent on buyer liking the car, they wont let you
test drive them until a contract is written up

He might not want to sell the specialty cars. They get a lot of attention
then buyers end up buying regular ones. Dealer where I bought my 05 GT had a
Shelby marked up to 55k so no one would buy it, just as an attention getter.
Had a sweet all black Saleen marked at 90k with other Saleens for 57-65k.
Didnt want to sell the black one yet.

at $55K I'm assuming you are talking about a GT 500... which is in
fact different that the Shelby GT... which i'm thinking is what the OP
was referring is the Shelby GT... which in IMHO is really nothing more
than a bunch of overprice appearance parts... that aren't really that
good looking...

I noticed the other day the local dealer has an 07 Shelby GT sitting
on the lot... half tempted to see what kind of numbers they are
looking for... they also have a new Bullitt that's been sitting there
for probably close to a month...

No it was a Shelby GT, he marked it up to avoid it selling.
I wasnt impressed by the appearance either. No wing, ugly rims.
