That could depend on if that's at the engine or rear wheels and how well it's built and tuned. PSH makes 550 at the engine with no problems.

Maybe it's a $45,000 stripe kit.

Those red line tires first came out on the GTOs in the 60s...if you saw those tires you knew it was a goat and don't mess with it.

Looked good then and they still look great today.

Response from seller:

The $50,000.00 is including the purchase price. It was built strictly per Alice's wants. We did not want it for racing so we do not have a dyno graph. We were told by the guy that did all of the performance modifications that it was at around 540.

Modifications:
Paxton Supercharger
Paxton intercooler
Performance chip reprogrammed
Billy Boat Performance exhaust system
shaker hood, tires and other cosmetic features

So "Alice has invested over $50¸000.00 to upgrade this vehicle" isn't entirely accurate. Still, a 2005 Mustang GT Coupe with those modifications shouldn't have $50,000 in it. Something to note: the first bidder was eBay user Bidder 1. The second was Bidder 2. Something seems fishy.

True, it shouldn't cost that much, but he is a celeb, and I'm sure whomever did the work for him took advantage of that.

eBay has changed to a blind bidder format to protect bidders against unsolicited contact during an auction. So all bidders are now Bidder 1, Bidder 2, Bidder 3, etc. until the end of the auction. This is a perfect setup for shill bidders.

Says at the bottom that he is selling this and will be building an Eleanor to replace it. I guess he likes the new Stang!
