If you found one at msrp and didn't buy because of a stripe defect, I don't think you really want one. You can replace the stripes for under $250 from bigwormgraphix, and they'll look better without the gaps that the factory stripes have.

I live in South Carolina, but bought the car in Arkansas. I don't have any special connections. I just did a lot of calling and negotiating. I've never paid markup before, but didn't feel like hunting anymore and this one had all the options I wanted. I would not pay any more than $5k over.

I paid $5k over 2 weeks ago for mine. MSRP was $79,xxx.

I meant the customer doesn't traditionally directly pay full parts catalog cost for components either. Take the GT350 for example. The carbon wheels are like $29k when priced out by themselves. Well, the R isn't $29k more than the base 350. I was just saying that using his logic that the DCT...

People actually buying the cars will opt for Recaros though, as long as there are no constraints. And the 10spd ZL1 outran a McLaren 570S around Willow Springs (I think) with Randy Pobst at the wheel. With Ford having access to essentially the same transmission I can't see the DCT being a must...

I have to disagree on the Recaro thing. When someone looks for 13-14 GT500, don't they desire the Recaros? And the same with GT350's? Those seats should be standard and the other seats offered at no cost.

The trans cost is moot point. Drivetrain costs are always astronomical in the early days when priced through parts department. You don't pay that cost directly when you actually purchase a car though. Take an 03 Cobra for example. When I 1st got mine I worked for Ford. They were around $34k new...

Just for giggles, what was your rationale on the $85k start price? For what it is and vs the other pony cars $85k max is where it should've been. Still would've been the most expensive Mustang ever and priced above the ZL1 and Hellcat Redeye, which is overpriced. The packaging is jacked up...

Whoever is making Ford's packaging decisions on these Mustangs needs to be ousted. I mean this car is expensive as far as a Mustang goes, no doubt. So when one forks over this level of cash, some of these packaging decisions look suspect. I feel like for $75k, why not include the B&O system...

If these transmissions are fragile and people start doing traditional GT500 mods this will be a severe wakeup call for many. I wonder was there any real benefit in not just using the 10spd auto?

.

High wings normally hinder top speed not help in achieving it. Surely Ford will offer at least 2 options since their showing a high wing like that first thing. Someone responsible for those decisions has to know that not everyone will want that.

You do realize the GT350R completely lost on every performance metric except subjective opinion, right? ZL1 is faster on the road course, better on the road, and a hell if a lot faster in a straight line. Oh, but the GT350 does have that sweet exhaust note (sarcasm). And I'm sorry. I'm not...

Notice that the SS 1LE ran the same time as the GT350R. I think theres something to be said about that. And also, if you watch the Ignition episode with the ZL1, the same white car ran a 1:26. I know the saying different days, different this and that, but for Randy to be almost 2 seconds slower...

I said this in the other thread, but $92k.........damn! I hope the dealer at least include a gallon of KY. I never new a crankshaft could make people so crazy.

$92k?! When will the madness stop?

No wonder everyone has been raving over the GT350 exhaust. It's artificailly enhanced inside the vehicle, a la BMW. Though this doesn'the affect whats heard outside, For a purist type car, this seems really cheesy to me. I stumbled upon this info on a neighboring mustang forum. This is quoted...

Anyone know the story on this one? I really hope it didn't leave the factory this way.

There has been some claims that the GT350 could run neck and neck with a Corvette Z51. I never thought this was true and now Car and Driver has confirmed it for me. I snagged a snippet of the article. The track was Willow Springs. The Shelby did better than I expected but was still over a second...

I'm Though my interest on acquiring this car has pretty much been driven to zero by adm and salesman incompetence, I may have found something interesting today. I found a GT350 that I'm pretty sure had a problem, other than its $97,000 asking price. Correct me if I'm wrong but look at these rear...

The C7Z has been catching a lot of flack lately. I personally think it's a little unfair given the car's overall capabilities. Should it be a little faster stock? In my opinion, yes. But overall the car still is on supercar levels in every performance category. I also hear many people wanna...

I sold my GT500 back in April to a member here. I had planned on just being content with my beater. The C7 had my interest also, but with the options I wanted the car just wasn't quite in the budget for me. So, I'm brownsing one of the Vette forums one day and find out the C7 is now eligible...

2013 GT500 for sale!!!! (Pics Added) I have a 2013 GT500. It is red with black stripes. It has track pack, electronics pack, and Recaros. The only mods are front splash guards,window tint, and an Airaid oiless air filter. Oh, it also has a lock pick and backup camera (license plate frame). It...

Sold my 08 Z and came back home to SVT. It was a great car but I was just planning to downsize and get out of the fast car scene for awhile. I had always admired what Ford did with the 13 GT500 but they were always a little out of my price range. Well..... it's amazing how things work out...

Hey guys the search function isn't working for me. Can you guys with lowered GT500's show me some pics and list the springs and supporting mods. I'm thinking about coming back from the dark side and if I get a Shelby I'm definitely gonna lower it. Also does lowering affect the Performance...
