I'm talking to a local dealer here in Houston, TX and they keep trying to sell 2007 GT500 to me for 10K over.03reptile said:

What upgrades?
I heard revised rear shocks and HID option, did I miss anything?
I was going to order an 08 but every dealer told me the soonest I would get the car is Sept or October and I wanted one this summer because up here in Boston it is pointless to buy a car then because it will be sitting for a long winters nap.

How did you get them to gaurantee you an 08 so soon?
Everyone I talked to said they would not get their 08s until Sept or October, that is why I ordered an 07.
Do you know if the HID lights are a go and how much do you think they will cost from Ford? I plan on replacing mine with those and could possibly apply the alloy stripes to my black coupe.
I was only saying to mess with the dealer,but i guess it didn't come across right.I'm not a bitter term poster,i'm always defending the shelby and will get one soon hopefully:read:The 08's have a few things that may sway people to wait especially with the possibility of falling prices.I don't know if it's enough to get dealers to come down on any 07's left over though.
No, It's a Mazda color.Stripe Delete said:
According to SVT (as of today), the '08's don't even start production until June, and that was a "probably". Realistically you're looking at end of July or into August before you see it if production really starts in June.LR 01 Cobra said:
That may be true, I'm just going by what the dealer told me.19COBRA93 said:
I talked to SVT yesterday and they told me they didn't know Job 1 yet!:rollseyes
Chuck I had my 07 gauranteed in 2005, when the wrong car came in I ask them to move me to the first 08 since all the 07's were already sold!

First, never trust a salesman. And that's about the same answer I got from SVT as well. I would think this sort of thing would be planned out already.LR 01 Cobra said:

It is! They just don't want to tell us yet!

Anyone have a really good color comparison between Alloy and Black? How do you think White with Alloy stripes would look? My place in line pushed me into 1st quarter 08', HID's, Mood lighting, Nav, sweet.
What is mood lighting> Will I be sorry I do not have it or should I say will my woman be sad ahha
i think it's lights under the dash and mirrors and other shit that we dont need that adds weight.
