Okay here is the deal. I have a close relative that just took over a Ford dealership in upstate N.Y, I live in Texas. The area up there is apparantly not very good for selling high end mustangs so they are willing to sell this car at a greatly reduced rate. They also have two Saleens, one of which is a rare Parnelli Jones. I attached the picture of the GT500. Shipping the car will not be a problem.
hey everyone! lol...yeah dont come in here and get a sale lying!!!you loose credibility! i am actually a salesgirl for a Power store! I have actually sold a few GT 500's which are scary fast!!!One thing i didnt know is that you dont get the boost until the odometer reads 50 miles. I drove it and was like wt*!!! i almost lost a sell bc we test drove two...
Anyways!!! My email is DiazC@autonation.com so if you do need a good deal, email me so that I can give you some more details.. BTW...I am the only retail salesgirl here and apparently all of the nearby dealerships just fyi
not to try and contradict you on that, but i only read it off the GT500 owners manual. I did drive it for six miles ( our test drive is 3 miles but we did it twice) and no boost came on
I dont know where you got that, but it sure would have been nice for me to get the boost in
I had to have my customer come back and let me drive it It was awesome!
Mine had exactly 4 miles on it when it delivered to my dealer (it was a transfer) and I requested that they do NO dealer prep on the car because it requires them to drive it for a few miles. I wanted to be the one who 'activated' the supercharger myself.
On my test drive mine activated. I was at boost around 10 miles on the odometer.
Now that's my own personal experience, but it was already common knowledge amongst all Shelby owners.
Your 2007 Shelby GT500 Power Train Control Module (PCM) strategy
contains a feature to limit supercharger boost pressure and engine speed
to 4000 RPM for the first five consecutive miles of vehicle operation or
50 engine start / warm up cycles. This feature is enabled prior to
shipment. If neither of these conditions have been satisfied prior to
customer delivery, full power will not be available.
It's amazing how many interpretations people that read that come up with.
She said she drove it for 6 miles and no boost came on. I wonder if she knows that no boost will register on the gauge unless she puts her foot in it.:thinkerg:
She said "I did drive it for six miles ( our test drive is 3 miles but we did it twice) and no boost came on."
Now did she actually drive it for 6 consecutive miles or, as I read it, she drove it for 3 miles twice. I'll assume that to mean that after 3 miles they stopped (may have shut the engine off) and then did it again, therefore the 5 consecutive miles as required to activate the boost was not reached which would mean 'no boost'.
You may be right, but given the quotes she has used, I don't feel she knows much about the product she is selling. Such as:
" One thing i didnt know is that you dont get the boost until the odometer reads 50 miles."
"boost came on"
"boost in"
It's all good though, because I've only found a couple of salespeople who have as much knowledge about the GT500's as those of us who frequent these boards.
Good luck with the sales Christinado4.:cheers:
