I guess this is a Modern "Day 2" Car!! and that is a real cool thing. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/scholar.gif

I get what what your saying! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif When I look at a 67 GT500 I get that https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif feeling. One of the best looking musclecars from that era.

I'm just not getting it with this car. Maybe that will change.

I have a 05 GT, trust me, it's muscle all the way. I love the camaro, but it seems as if GM has not only missed the boat, they have not even made it to the dock yet. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: the SHELBY breaks into the 10's
 

I think I'd rather have an '05 GT and spend the $20K-$40K differential in the net price of a "GT500" (thank you greedy dealers) on meaningful enhancements. The '05 GT would end up being more potent for probably 1/2 the money. Or wait for the Shelby GT that will be a much better performance buy--less weight and less $$.

Re: the SHELBY breaks into the 10's
 

At the 45K price tag it was a great price for a great car. Greed being what it is on these cars,the new asking prices of around 65 to 70K make it not such a good deal. Id take a Saleen car all day long at 55K,or step up a few dollars and get a z06 and blow the shelbys doors in.. Graphics and name aside,a shelby is a glorified GT with more horsepower,the gt costing 28K. The extra 40K over the GT price isnt worth it. As can be easily predicted, when the 2008 shelby,whether it be a gt500kr or a better shelby, these 2007s will lose 20K as soon as the orders come in for the 2008s. I was hell bent on getting a 2007 for months but got real turned off by the dealers promising 40 people the same car and having deposits from each, but ill wait and get one with a few 1000 miles on it for 35K next year...People dont realize collectible is only a thing of the past..That was proven with every special edition car from the 78 pace car and every pace car after it,to the early ZR1s and so forth.
