If the interior is anything like the last gen Mustang...I'd pass on it like I was Jason Kidd.

BMW gave me a 2007 Mustang as loaner once and the interior sucked severely. Not to mention it was hard to see from the inside.

Look at the OP's sig...they're GINORMOUS!

Brunotheboxer · 09-07-2009, 09:44 PM

I think the fun factor of the car with the super charged v8 is starting to intrigue me. I mean 540 horses and I think 500 lbs of torque sound nice.

It was ok until the guy started boasting about cue ball shift knob

Yeah, cool that's made by a real cue ball manufacturer, but I'm guessing that buyers will be more concened with whether it will match the hanging dice.

Not all that impressed with the drag times either.

Funny thing was they kept saying they were racing into a 20mph wind but their hair was hardly blowing.
I just assumed that the cue ball shift knob was an old retro style that fit in with the car but the comment was funny. I bet the thing is comfortable in your hand though.

darkphantom · 09-07-2009, 10:13 PM

I wonder how it handles, he did say it has better suspension than the previous model....

oneintheory · 09-07-2009, 10:24 PM

Edmunds said that while it handles better, it's definitely still a straight line car, and it has a tendency to rear up a little bit under hard acceleration.

purespeed · 09-07-2009, 11:00 PM

Be careful what you wish for.

My wife drives a 07 Mustang convertible (not Shelby GT) and she loves it. The Shelby GT500 is everything they say it is and more....and here's what I mean by more:

If what they are saying is true, you can never afford to repair the car.

Example: Hood $21,000

I don't think this car will have the KR 'mark up'

With less than a grand worth of mods, you can also enjoy seeing that car in your rear view mirror.

I think you are correct...but most anything with Shelby on it is generally $$$$$$.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have that monster.

Year's_End · 09-07-2009, 11:56 PM

Definitely a badass and perfectly viable option compared with the 335i.

So much more street presence. So much faster. Apparently handles well and has perfectly satisfactory steering feel, as well as being easily controllable with throttle.

And the interior is leaps better than its predecessor, but not really to the level of the bimmer's. Whatever, it looks nice anyways.

'Cane · 09-08-2009, 12:25 AM

No thanks.
