Anyone know of any dealers in IL with an unclaimed GT 500 or a potential buyer wanting to bail out on their chance to order a '08 or '09?

Just trying to locate one for a serious buyer.

Thanks,
Jim

jim we have a black rag in stock

Whats the deal with 'verts? No one seems to want them, that is all I have found so far. Black is the right color but it needs to be a coupe.

Last time I was there the Ford Dealer in Olathe KS. had two sitting on his Show Room floor, (though neither was black).

 

[DirtyBird46]

What color are they and how much over list do they want?

Justin, what do you guys want for the black 'vert?

 

[Traveler]

If I remember correctly, one was yellow, and one was red.

Olathe Ford is a pretty big dealership, they should be able to help you out.

Pilson's in Mattoon, IL has a Black on Black on Black ragtop as well.

My gf's dad has a black with white stripe coupe. I about **** myself when I found out. Jim, you should sell the coupe and the bird and put some money down on the ragtop

 

[DirtyBird46]

Todd, you sure picked the right girl!!!

I almost sold everything off for a loaded Mustang GT but couldn't do it. I get too attached to my cars. Not to mention the rather large inventory of aftermarket parts I have collected for both cars. I just need some time to put everything together and considering I am sitting in a hotel room in California, no work is getting done anytime soon.

btw-the serious buyer is my dad, so at least the car would still be in the family. Right now he is on the waiting list for a '08. If that doesn't work out, I think he is getting a black 'Vette. It is a nice car, but I bleed Ford blue and would like to see him get a Shelby. He feels the same way but does not want to play the games that all the Ford dealers are playing.

oh jim, we just got in a shelby gt as well, we just sold the rag

 

[DirtyBird46]

I talked to my dad about the GT and he said he wanted "the big dogg." Just out of curiosity, what are you guys asking for it and what is the color combo?

 

[jk69cat]

black, with white stripes, and 50k

 

[DirtyBird46]

So...that is 15k over sticker, right?

Thanks for the info, I will pass it on.

 

[jk69cat]

sorta
32k for the car,
8-10 shelby fee
10 market mark up

 

[DirtyBird46]

What is the Shelby fee? I thought the mark up was 100% up to the dealer.

This is kind of off topic, but I was checking out the Fords at a local dealer here in California and they had a nice black on black Mustang GT with the 18" chrome bullitts and they marked it up (dealer) $2k. They were closed when I was there, but I wanted to back hand them for marking up a GT this late in the model year.

if its a stick, they'll get it, some reason sticks were in demand, and the was a supply issue. i hate that they try to get over and beyond. somethign about, shebly gets x dollar for his name to be on those cars , and are actually registered with shebly , unlike the gt500

 

[DirtyBird46]

Justin, I went back today and looked at that black stang again. It is a California Special with black stripes and a 5-spd. You can barely notice the stripes on it, I think it looks pretty cool. That 2k mark-up doesnt sound so bad now, at least you get something "special".
