    2009 gt500kr

    I just saw a news report that Five Star Ford dealership in Scottsdale has one for sale...asking $140k for it. According to the last MM&FF that just hit the mailbox, the MSRP is $80k which is retarded enough. If I ever meet someone that pays $140k for a late model, non-Barrett-Jackson auction Mustang, I'll bite his face. Maybe I'm wrong, but this completely defeats the whole point of the Mustang.

    According to a buddy over at Sanderson, they also received their first GT500KR. Problem, for any potential buyer, is that they sold the car... almost a YEAR AGO!! He says they have four more on order...

    I saw a black one last week out here in Glendale. Also saw a black Challenger on Northern. For that price i'd rather have a gt or zr1

    GT500's are starting to sound more appealing. There's some low mileage used 07's on ebay for low 40's. If that car gets below 38 for a used low mileage car I'm in. There's a black one in MT (that's actually being sold by my buddies father) for 42,500.

    The KR is a nice car, don't get me wrong, but that is a ton of coin for a car that is comparable performance wise to a MUCH CHEAPER z06. Hell you could have 2 Z06's for that.

    Oh yeah, I really like the GT500 but just like you said, they will be worth the price of admission one they are under the $40k mark. It's the KR that they are going crazy with now on the price for 40 extra HP and limited units.

    I was just there yesterday. Not on the showroom floor(which is where you'd think they would be showing it off!)

    No way would I pay that much for a KR and just for 40hp more and a few cosmetic upgrades. I'd rather drop 20K of performance stuff into a GT500.

    There's a guy here in Gilbert that has a really hot red GT500. It's lowered with perfect wheel/tire sizing. The exhaust is incrediably(sp) loud and sound awesome.

    He's probably got a few other goodies on it, just I've never seen it up close.

    Really? I couldn't see myself replacing my Cobra with a GT500. The only other possibility would be a cammed LS2 C6 or a bolt on/tuned LS3 C6. These new vettes are SICK

    But 150K for anything American other than a Ford GT is not something I could see myself doing, but this is coming from someone who can't afford that if the wanted to... Yet
