I have a older friend that is thinking about selling his 2009 Shelby GT, not a GT500. I know they are not a fast car but this car has 12,000 miles on it, and it's perfect. Shelby GT's were just a dressed up Mustang GT with stripes and Ford racing shocks and struts. I'm guessing $25,000.00 but I can't find any info about it online, it's almost like they never made them. I think I saw one at the last Mecum action sell for $35,000.00. Thanks for your help.

They are all over the place as far as advertised price. The GT500 are now selling for $25k.

I’d say start at $23k and hope to get $20k. But it may take a while.

At 12,000 miles i say 25k is a fair starting point and OBO. Only gt500 going for 25k are omes with high miles. I still see on lots 07-09s going for$ 32-35k

I think it will depend a lot on where they live. Around here 07-09 GT500s with sub 50K miles go for $20K-$25K. 10-11 go for $25K-$32K. So for a non 5.0 GT even with low miles if you held firm for awhile or lucked on the right buyer $18K-$20K. I would start in the $23K range and go from there.

A local guy I know here sold an 07 Auto vista blue Shelby GT to some guy in California for 25k but I think he found the right buyer. While there kinda cool if I was in the market I wouldn’t want one I’d spring for the GT500 or a 5.0. He will have to find the right buyer if he wants good money.

I dont think the gt500 price actually plays that much of a guideline. I've met plenty of old dudes at car shows that prefer low mile shelby-GT's to the "fake ford gt500" if he isnt in a hurry to offload it start high

Maybe 20k now if it was the GT/SC model it’d be worth more.


Pick your poison.

Funny how some Shelby "purists" think Ford produced GT500s aren't genuine. Did they forget Ford took over production in 1969? Pretty much making them for Shelby in late 67-68.

They probably think the Shelby continuation Eleanor's are more genuine than a factory built GT500. :D I know my car is genuine because anything that has Shelby written on it costs a damn arm and a leg to replace...

Thanks for the input, I'm just trying to help him out, he's a nice guy but now in a care facility. We live in SoCal so i'm thinking 20-25K should work.

Y'all are crazy if you think anyone is paying more for a 3V than what you can get a halfway decent 5.0 that's half as old (regardless of miles) for... It's a 3v with some basic suspension tweaks, it's worth like $15k. Not saying the car isn't nice, not saying it's crap, not saying any of that, but the fact of the matter is the market is saturated with better performance cars for less $$. This will only sell to someone who specifically wants THAT car, and at that price i'd say you're turning away a LOT of potential buyers.

Yes... Or my buddy who owns a gt500 calling my old 2003 cobra a shelby.... Just cant win
Ha! I get the GT500 being called a Cobra thing... but a Terminator being called a Shelby? That's new. FWIW I could care less if my car is a Shelby, GT500, Cobra. Its fast and thats what matters.
