I may see an 07-09 gt500 in my future if prices drop even more on them As far as the new shelby its gonna be badass, you guys think itll hook though ? ( noob question I know lol)

My local dealer has a mustang (not sure it its really a 2013 or not) covered up where only you can see the outline of the car and a huge sign that says "2013" "its comning"

 

[twisted_GT500]

Yeah...I doubt it's a 13. Probably 12 they covered just to make people curious

I think the average driver going have a hard time getting that to hook with street tires, I could be wrong, but that's my guess. Prob see them run in the 12's at like 125-130MPH LOL.

It has to be a '12 or older. The '13's won't even start production until March (Job 1 is 2-27-12).

Should be Dec 1st. That's when the order banks open for the '13's.

 

[iRoush]

Prices!!! Oh yes, prices! Contacting my dealer today.

LOL, you did read what I wrote right? Prices aren't released yet. You can call your dealer all you want, but prices you won't get until at least Dec 1st.

Gonna need some good tires for sure!
Heck our 08GT500 is stock and it sure as heck needs some better tires to hook good, and it has less than 5500mi. on it so those tires are plenty fresh!

I REALLY think they should add this to the GT500 stock even though they would have to bump the price tag up a bit.

Did you really just ask that question? Do you think it has escaped any diehard Ford fan's notice that Ford has embraced 2 of the most important engine sizes in Ford's last 30 year history?
