GT PREMIUM with 3.73 = $34,090


The price is pretty decent, the insurance on the other hand is not.

I got a quote from my insurance company, and by the time I pay off the car it would cost me $50,000 not including property tax and all that other good stuff. Sucks being young.

Must be a glitch, I got the deluxe with Brembo brake package and it was 0$, the 3.73 gears were $395.

That's all I got on it, just like I would in real life.

Mine came out to $32K.....I ordered it. It is a fully optioned V6. This is more than I paid for my Terminator. Oh well what can we do?? The Shelby GT500 Convertible is $57,700 optioned "Fastlane" style.

whats the diff betweeen the 2010 gt500 and 2011?

Go here:

My review of the 2011 gt500
Pictures and info supplied by FMCO

enjoy!


There have been many upgrades implemented in the base 2011 GT500 over the 2010 model. The folks at SVT have taken those improvements to an even higher level , thanks in no small part to the optional SVT Performance Package distinguished easily by it's distinctively more narrow, over the top stripes..


gt500live---03.jpg

ENGINE & COOLING:
To start out with is the new all aluminum 550 horsepower and 510 ft.-lb. of torque engine, this is a 10 horsepower increase over the 2010 distinguished by it's silver SC and FGT Blue valve covers.

2011_GT500-Engine01_HR.jpg



The all-new 5.4-liter all-aluminum engine is also 102 pounds lighter than the previous cast-iron engine and due to it’s “SprayBore” Ford-patented plasma transfer-wire arc coating technology (PTWA). It has better cooling efficiency due to it’s superior wear resistance and reduced cylinder wall to piston friction.


2011_GT500-Engine06_HR.jpg



Added to that is a new two-row intercooler that delivers 40% better thermal efficiency so this car will perform with optimum potential even on the hottest of track days.

This 2011 Gt500 is the first modern day Shelby that does not have a “Gas Guzzler Tax” added to the cost of the car, thanks to an EPA estimated 23 mpg hwy and 15 mpg city gas milage. This is up from 22 mpg hwy, 14 mpg city on the 2010 model.

Much of that hp and fuel efficiency increase is attributed to the larger 2-3/4” exhaust, the addition of Electric Power Assist Steering (EPAS), 120 lb overall weight savings (coup) and improved aerodynamic changes to the underside of the car.
gt500live---19.jpg



HANDLING:

SVT engineers looked at the handling package as a whole, the sum of the parts if you will.

To start out with SVT engineers worked directly with Goodyear to develop tires that would offer superb wet or dry traction and precise handling. They would be complete with a race-inspired high-performance tread compound.
The tire is the all new Goodyear Eagle® F1 SuperCar G: 2 tire.

gt500live---12-1.jpg




These tires are mounted on new lightweight Forged aluminum wheels consisting of 19” front (saving 4.8lbs each) and 20” rear( saving 2.8lbs each) over the standard wheels.
gt500live---11.jpg



They then cut the ride height down 11mm in front with a 20% stiffer spring rate and 8mm in the rear with a 9.5% stiffer spring rate and the added special "red painted" strut and shock package tuned to complement the rest of the package.

gt500live---16.jpg

2011_GT500-Engine03_HR.jpg


Both front and rear sway bars were improved as well with the rear being the largest one they could fit into the platform.

The standard 355 rear differential was also increased to the optional 373’s to help increase corner exit acceleration.

The SVT Performance Pack also includes a new spoiler with a larger “Gurney Flap” which adds 2% more drag in the rear but with the help of new aerodynamic ducting the front has an additional 18% more down force over the 2010 model reducing understeer.
gt500live---06.jpg


All of these changes add up to improved driving dynamics, balance, grip and handling which translate into faster track times and 1.0 'G' on the skid pad
So much so that according to Ford , a 2011 equipted with the SVT pp was a full 3 seconds faster on a 2.3 mile road course over the 2010 model and it's 0 to 60 times were 1/10th quicker and it's 1/4 mile times were 2/10ths faster


Braking distance’s have also decreased by 7% in both 0-60 and 0-100 stopping . Slotted brake dust shield’s were added to improve brake cooling as well.

Ford engineers didn’t forget the Convertible this year either. The convertible’s now have a 30% stiffer overall chassis and 40% less cowl shake thanks to new bracing and structural foam in the "A" pillars, making it as rigid as the 2010 coup.

In addition to all this Ford has managed to decrease road noise by 20% while still increasing the exhaust note.


A new glass roof option is available for the 2011 Ford Shelby GT500, giving customers a less expensive option than a convertible, without compromising the coupe's versatility

It seems to me that without a doubt this will not only continue to be a great muscle car but also real track star as well with great power and balance.

Plus the new GT will blow it's doors off at the drag strip or open track..:banana:

$36,825

Premium GT with navigation and 3:73s

If you look around some dealerships are already offering deals off MSRP on allocations. ;-)

DON'T PAY MSRP FOR A MUSTANG GT!!! :beer:

$35,785 :( im doing it wrong

GT Premium + 3.73s + brembo package

i couldn't pass up the brembo package, front and rear brembos plus 19" al rims for $1700 isnt a bad deal, especially when you consider that an aftermarket brembo kit for just the front on a 2010 is around 3k.

The danger civic is all paid off and the trade in value is about 17k :D

don't really wanna see the insurance numbers though.

But when I got the Si I was looking at a 2009 stang GT and the insurance was actually about $10 cheaper for the stang, but since ford threw an extra 100+ hp into the mix I don't think I'll be able to insure the 2011 stang for cheaper than the civic

Mine came out to $42,345.00

Then pull new motor, add custom crank, new Oliver rods, custom Mahle pistons, and labor from Boss 330 or Livernois. Appx guess $8500.00
Don't know if it will be possible or needed to port the heads.
Twin turbo kit with the turbos hidden in the rear quarter panels. $8000.00
Blower kit. Can't decide between Whipple or KenneBell. As to size, probably under 2.6L Appx 6000.00
That way I can keep the total manifold pressure under 35psi.
Fuel system, appx 1500.00
Transmission mods for six speed auto, appx $3000.00
Assemble and tuning $5000.00

grand total? $71,345.00

And that's what it will cost to have the first 2011 GT in the 8 second bracket:banana::beer:

I already bought my Lottery ticket.
