Default New GT500 owner!

I had recently purchased an 08' Bullitt with the intentions of leaving the power side of the car untouched.Well that lasted about a month.After doing some research and math I figured that the price of the car+Mods like a KB to start would have put me right up with the GT500.So while at the local Ford dealer checking out a 427R to see just how much work it looked like would be involved,I realize they come with Roushchargers but it was a general comparison,There it was!A no options Black stripe delete GT500 for sticker!I figured that I would have 44K in the Bullitt with 450RWHP as the high mark before I had to tear into the motor so checked it out.It is as I would have ordered it.Here are some pics if I can get them to post up.

beautiful car.....congrats....i am set to join the gt500 club mid june....I wish I could have gotten mine with a couple less add ons (like $1300 shaker 1000) but the only way they would let me order and get it for $500 below msrp is to get the few add ons and bring my msrp up to 47,330 (that was in case I decided to back out they felt it was easier to mark up...) anyway..you car is gorgeous....congrats...

She's a beauty, I have a Shelby GT and i can see my tires being bald within a few months... with 500hp you should buy stock in BF Goodrich. Have fun with it!

This was my 07' Shelby GT.They are the best handling Mustangs that I have ever driven.I loved that car.Had to sell for marital reasons.I'm sure you too will need plenty of tires!I taught my 14 year old son to speed/Powershift in this one!
