Count me in as well. What was your situation? Is another GT500 on order from you? How did they screw/lie to you??

I'am not trying to be a prick here, but why the hell would you get another Shelby after you just went through all this???? I personally would steer far away from Ford Motor Co.
I have been involved in a Lemon suit, and I would just like to say that if other routes had been taken, you might not had to 'eat' any cash out. Also, they LEGALLY have to disclose buy back. If someone buys that car, and is not disclosed the buyback history, they are going to have one hell of a nice pay check from the dealership......AND ford.
Sorry about your troubles. I have been there, done that. Hope the new GT500 is a better experience.
BTW - a 'buyback/lemon' car also must (legally) have a sticker on the inner door jam (dvr) side, that states that car was indeed a lemon. JUST another FYI.

I tried to send a message to the only bidder on e-bay, but it keeps kicking it back to me because I have no interest in his purchase or previous sells. My friend had a lemon law VW GTI. He ended up with a new car and $3000.00 for pain and suffering. He works for Autobytel and used there lawyers. Good Luck!!!

I think you would be surprised at how little FMC may know about this. It is the dealership trying to pas it off.....they do it all the time with buybacks. That is why the 'sticker' and disclosure statement (which legally must be on the car, next to the warranty and sticker price) are required by law. This dealership did you no favors, and is trying to lie to the future customer. I wish you would have gone the legal route. That would have really made the dealerhsip be humble on reselling this, and happily refunding your money. But that is my advice, and on a subject I dont' know much about.
BTW - I tried to report it to ebay, but I could only find the pre-determined reasons for a reporting. Nothign that would allow a 'statement with the link to here'. You can get with them on live chat on Monday.
This sucks and im sorry to hear that you got screwed like this. I went through something like this when I bought my 03 cobra. I bought a brand new car with 30 miles on it and when I got it home I parked it for three weeks because I was real busy with work. Then when I went to wash it for the first time I noticed some overspray.Then I noticed the tires were not F1s, Then I noticed tape marks on the paint.
Thats when I lost it and drove it back to the dealer. they told me "we are sorry there is nothing we can do for you":cuss:
Long story short was that they were getting me a new car and they were paying my sales tax and they didnt know it yet LOL.
After I got my new Cobra (another POS) my old one was back on the lot for 35 grand.
When I called the dealer they said that it only had 400 miles on it and the guy that bought it (me) changed his mind.
I later found out that the car was a recoverd theft.:rollseyes
Now I cant wait to get my new camaro.:-D

it sounds to me as if ford is trying to do the right thing with making sure the dealer settles all you have invested in this auto. and the dealer is the one that lied to you about the car, to ford about actually taking care of its customer, and to the future owner of this car without disclosing past issues.
is this right, or do you have proof that ford is the one giving the dealer the go ahead to resale the without discloser. after all if the dealer sells the car back to ford, the dealer would only recoup the invoice price of the car and lose your 5k + the amount over invoice they sell car for to the next buyer.
i feel the dealer is mostly at fault for the entire debacle!:nonono:

as I read it, he did not pay 5K over sticker to the dealer, he bought a PL Option for 5K from an individual..(dealers were supposedly precluded by SVT from buying Power Leases to increase allocation ) . the dealer has no part in that transaction.
If the dealer is making him whole, on the price they got from him for the car, then the dealer is doing right by him, however reselling a buy back without disclosing it as such is wrong, and illegal in many if not all states.

A certified letter letter from a lawyer will get their attention and likely change their attitude in short order.
