How to find a specific 2007 Shelby gt500 in the US.

bshclh · 01-16-2008, 07:09 PM

I have it on good authority (a dealer) that there is one more 2007 Shelby GT500 that's black with the red stripes. Basically, the red appearance package - http://www.2008shelbygt500.com/RedStripeGT500.htmBut, the kicker is it will take an extra $13K to have it shipped here.

I'd be fine with waiting for a 2008 that is black with the red stripes (yes, this is a special color mix that is sooo close to what I had when I bought my first cobra many years ago that I'm not on a quest..). But, turns out the Black w/red stripes is only available in 2008 on convertables and I'm pretty set on coupe.

Now, if I knew what dealership had the car, I'd probably (after calling, doing background work, etc.) fly there for a couple of hundred dollars, and drive it back. But, the local dealership, for obvious and understandable reasons, would not benefit from passing that info on to me.

So, with the web being what it is (I'm confident the cure for cancer is on the web, but nobody knows the URL), does ANYBODY have any idea how to find out where this 2007 Shelby GT500 with the red appearance package?

Thanks!

You have to look it up on http://www.dealerconnection.com/ I beleive that's the website at least. There is a secret way to log into it that only dealers can where they can browse the inventories of nearby or usa wide ford dealers. You need to find an actual auto dealer to do it for you, I beleive there is one on here who owns a GT500, or you could just try contacting Clevenger. I'd do it fast though because the car is going to sell fast.

There's four on ebay, of which, 1 is a 2007 coupe. The others are 08's

To be honest I would just get black with Stripe delete and Paint the stripes on. I still don't understand why the GT500's have Vinyl Stripes instead of Paint. Vinyl = Cheap, also doesn't hold up very well over the long run either.

I don't know which dealership you are at, but I hope it is one on the list. Please don't mention me to them, and if you have any further questions, please send me a PM.[/align][align=left]PS[/align][align=left]If you do decide to go with one of these, please let me know before hand. I always like to know if I have helped someone out.
