If you can find a leftover 07 Shelby and you like to be noticed,That's the way to go!They handle better than any other Mustang I've driven.If you like to fly under the radar and a little more off the line zip and comfort the Bullitt is the way to go.Both are great cars.I never had any complaints about either purchase.

This topic is like comparing apples to oranges. I paid rougly over 41 K out the doorcfor my shelby and im totally happy i did. The main  purpose was to fill my long time dream of owning a   real shelby GT mustang. If you are going to argue paying 10 K + more for a shelby over a GT is lame it dont hold water. I will argue that if you compare the price of a 67 cobra and the price of a 67  MUSTANG IN 67  the shelby COBRA blows away a mustang in over all value. Ive heard some 67 cobras have been getting over 1 million $$. Shelby in time has never lost value ever. ANd you can bet that the 07 shelby wil be worth much more then any GT and keep its value as time passes. I bought my 2007 about 1 year ago and i have yet to see another shelby like mine on the road. My car is allready rare ..ANd last point a shelby is a different car then a Mustang GT . A shelby IS A Shelby a mustang is just that a mustang A DIME A DOZEN. You dont buy a shelby to get around everyday you buy it as a collection item totally different then a normal purchase of any average car.



Sure you do. Mines a DD and has 14K on the odo as of yesterday.

So did you see the black Shelby GT/SC at the Stillen Show? That was an amazing Shelby! They should have had drool guards surrounding the engine!

The Bullitt is now eligible for Ford cash incentives.  The amount seems to vary from $1500~$3000 depending on your location.  You can got to this Ford website and check which incentives are currently available.

http://www.fordvehicles.com/incentives/offers/

The GT500 and SGT have no incentives available at this time.

I recently went to a dealership  to check out an 08 GT/CS....inside, they had 2 - 08 Shelby GT's and 1- 08 Black Bullitt.  Price on the Bullitt aprox 33,000 and the 2 Shelby's 45,000.  Talked with the manager and he is saying that he is willing to let either go for the sticker price which would be aprox 31,500 + T/T for the Bullitt and aprox 41,000 + T/T for the Shelby.   From the small number of post I've seen, it appears that the Bullitt is the better performance bargain of the two but the Shelby is better looking and should hold value better in the time.  To me, the Bullitt is just so plain looking...it's great that it performs well, but I also want something I an proud to look at as well.  I had pretty much given up the idea of getting a Shelby due to rediculous dealer price increases on the GT500 and the SGT...but if they are willing to sell at sticker, might be worth it .  Does anyone know if the 60 month @ 3.9% interest rate applies to the Bullitt and SGT?  The manager said there were no incentives on either car.  Any thoughts or ideas are appreciated.

I DID NOT buy my 2008 Shelby GT500 as a collection item, I bought it to DRIVE!

Maybe you didn’t pay almost what I paid for my GT500 for a slightly modified Mustang GT to drive it, but I bought my GT500 to drive.  Period!

I don’t give a rodent’s derriere about resale value.  If I just wanted to look at something sitting in the garage I could have saved my money and bought a full sized poster of a cool car and hung it in the garage.

If you think these Shelby’s are going to appreciate like a 1960’s GT500 or Cobra, you are crazy.  You and I won’t be alive to see that.

Yes it is like comparing apples to orangesThe Shelby GT is $7000 to in this case $11,500 over priced.  My 2008 Bullitt is scheduled for build this week.  My cost before the $1500 incentive was $31,000, I will now be paying $29,500.  You can buy a lot of glue on scoops, brake and suspension parts, and vinyl racing stripes, and even a blower kit for that $11,500 and still have money left over.

It's like I'm talking to a retard. First off stop writing in bold and messin' around with cap locks. When did jbnetdev buy his SGT? Plenty of people paid to much for their SGT's just like many paid to much for GT500's early on. Look, bitethebullitt just paid 2k more on a bullitt then my buddy did on a SGT! Bitethebullitt got his car with rebates, most people paid less without rebates for a Bullitt. Like I have already said, the SGT is overpriced at msrp. But it's all about market value. My friend just bought the car at the above mentioned price. Sh*t at that price the car is a great freakin deal. Besides the SGT will hold its value much better then a Bullitt, and every smart consumer needs to consider this before they make a large purchase on a depricable asset. Right? Point is, the cars cost pretty much the same if you do your research and are patient.

i agree with gtragtop...its all about market value and who has what.  i shopped 3 dealers before i found my bullitt with the options i wanted.  my whole deal was to get out the door for under msrp and that's what happened by about $800.00.  this thread is telling me that some dealers are definitely more motivated than others to sell us our stangs.  i also liked the creature comforts that the bullitt has over the sgt's.  performance mixed with a bit of luxury is the way for me.  patience is the key to a great deal.  my father always said "the more you look, the more you will find something you like better."  his philosophy worked for me.

The main  purpose was to fill my long time dream of owning a   real shelby GT mustang. If you are going to argue paying 10 K + more for a shelby over a GT is lame it dont hold water. I will argue that if you compare the price of a 67 cobra and the price of a 67  MUSTANG IN 67  the shelby COBRA blows away a mustang in over all value. Ive heard some 67 cobras have been getting over 1 million $$. Shelby in time has never lost value ever. ANd you can bet that the 07 shelby wil be worth much more then any GT and keep its value as time passes. I bought my 2007 about 1 year ago and i have yet to see another shelby like mine on the road. My car is allready rare ..ANd last point a shelby is a different car then a Mustang GT . A shelby IS A Shelby a mustang is just that a mustang A DIME A DOZEN. You dont buy a shelby to get around everyday you buy it as a collection item totally different then a normal purchase of any average car.



Again my buddy just bought a SGT for $29,999.00, before taxes etc.



It's like I'm talking to a retard. First off stop writing in bold and messin' around with cap locks. When did jbnetdev buy his SGT? Plenty of people paid to much for their SGT's just like many paid to much for GT500's early on. Look, bitethebullitt just paid 2k more on a bullitt then my buddy did on a SGT! Bitethebullitt got his car with rebates, most people paid less without rebates for a Bullitt. Like I have already said, the SGT is overpriced at msrp. But it's all about market value. My friend just bought the car at the above mentioned price. Sh*t at that price the car is a great freakin deal. Besides the SGT will hold its value much better then a Bullitt, and every smart consumer needs to consider this before they make a large purchase on a depricable asset. Right? Point is, the cars cost pretty much the same if you do your research and are patient. 



Disagree, Y buy what you like best when it comes to cars!!

LMFAO

This Shelby is as great as the Saleen, Bullitt, much nicer than the Roush, and the Shelby GT.

I like the Bullitt. I test drove one. Very nice and sounds great. I almost got one, but drove home in Lilly. She picked me.

redgt,

lilly is a hotty!  congrats on your purchase.  i really can't see how anyone can go wrong with the purchase of any new v8 mustang these days.  maybe that's why there are so many different offerings from the front office.  i liked ruby too!

Boy we are pationate arent we !!.hahaha. Im a retard Ya right.. Look in the mirror !!!You guys are hilarious. To answer when I purchsed my gem it was july last year.. I actually wanted the gt500 but the dealers were whores asking for 3oK to 35 K over sticker. I dont mind paying even 10 K more but 30 K more no way in hell. I paid a little below sticker for the gt which at the time i thought was a fair deal and my feelings havent changed at all even if the prices have fallen off abit. That will not last. I do drive my car more then i should but i want to keep it in cherry shape so i can make it last till i die i will probably be buried in it hahaha.. TO prove my point i challange anyone to compare the original cost of a Mustang and shelby signature /original not a home conversion purchased about the same time that more then 10 years old and show the resale value 10 + years later and to see which car made better investment. I will bet that the shelby will blow away the mustang every time. It may seem now that ii paid to much but just wait till 10 years have passed. The fact is theres a limited amount of shelby and a **** load of mustangs. Its a no brainer !!!!The limited will be a hot item when people sudddenly see there not many to find later. All you have to do is look at the past to see my opinion is very true. If im a retard i sure am a happy one owning a Shelby...I HAVE NO REGRETS AT ALL !!!!Maybe that alone disqualifies  me being a retard hahahahahah
