So I was talking to someone associated with a dealer around here, same one with the wrecked orange GT500. Apparently they will be receiving 3 KR's and the cost was around $104,000. Will have a %15 ADM.
Gt500kr.......$100,000?

i asked the ford dealer here that always carries cobra's and they said the same thing
the krs should not be 100k msrp! i can see a legitimate 20k hike over the gt500 for fords gt500kr msrp.
so now your at $65k + 30k to 50k adm's on every single kr! which is a lot more than the 15% you are talking about. try 50%+ adms!

I didn't think ford released the pricing? My bet is that the dealers are just getting ready to rape the consumers once again.
NO DEALER KNOWS WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE GETTING A KR OR HOW MANY.
More dealer BS
Price has not been released on any 08 GT500 as well.

Is that 104,000 + 15% ADM or 104,000 (including 15% ADM)??
If it includes 15% ADM then that would make the MSRP about $87,000 .....
They can suck the dingle berries off my stinky you know what for that price and I still wouldn't buy one!

And everyone thought the GT500 was overpriced?!!? ;-)
The fact is that as of today no dealer knows if they are on the list to get one or what the release price (sticker) will be. They usually go to the bigger, higher volume dealers.
The current talk is spring 2008 release. The "King of the Road" is said to have at least 600HP. Initially, they're only going to be 1000 of these limited edition kr cars built . The car will be released and begin as a beefed up GT500 w/ stiffer suspension, short throw shifter, lower 3.73 gears (base price to start in the low $50K range) and then delivered to Shelby in Las Vegas for the additional upgrades ( Price has not been release for the upgrades either but, the price that is being thrown around is to expect another $10k.
Now as "03gobluecobra" so gently put it.... the dealer gets a hold of one and you're raped. I can't wait to see one though and what it actually sells for.

I thought they said 540hp.
Either way, with only 1000 being built, 100k inc ADM's seems in line.
Make no mistake, this is a collector model for sure. If all you're interested in the hardware/hp upgrades, just get the regular GT500 and mod it

a dealer in Baton-Rouge,Louisiana took a deposit of around $25,000.00 about 3 week's ago,and has made a deal of $50,000.00 over MSRP,providing that they are LUCK-ENOUGH to get one. I think they will use the Lottery system like they did back in 2000,for the CobraRs.Also the presidents-club,if you sell your quotas,have a good repore over all with your service department,ect.What ever is all envolved for that award.So we will see a six figure price on the shelby gt500KR.That's for sure. I would also say the first one is at tha Barret-Jackson auto sell in Scotsdale,Arizona,in march of 2008,if i remember right for that event. Watch the first KR,sell for no less then 1Million-Dollars,and you can believe that Mr. Ron Pratt will be the buyer,and have the oportunity to buy the rights to #2/#3,along with #1,after it's all said and Spanky says SOLD for $1,MILLION DOLLARS.What you think,just my opnion.

Whoopie 100k for a Cobra with boltons and a different nameplate, take it to the track and an 03 will still lay smack on it.:coolman: I don't think it'll auction for a mil because the first GT auctioned for a bit over half that.

I agree. If this is such a limited run of a car at least make it really bass-ass! Oh and drop about 500lbs also.:thumbsup:
