2007 SHELBY MUSTANG CONV. THIS VEHICLE IS A THEFT RECOVERY FROM OUR DEALERSHIP. DRIVE LINE LOOKS OK.
WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF DOING AN ESTIMATE OF APPROX DAMAGES.I CAN E'MAIL A DETAILED ESTIMATE ONCE COMPLETED.

I took the liberty of preparing the detailed repair quote for them. Here it is:

Quantity.............. Item needed........... Cost
1........................ Everything.............. 49,885.00 (MSRP n/i dealer markup)

Thats hilarious. I guess its $20,000 for the prestige that having a car that was in a police chase, or something, eh?

Well he's also saying the engine alone is worth 20k which is BS... you can get a NEW GT500 engine for 13k

thats canadian 20k in cdn is about 13k here, including the over the border trnsport etc... So that guy has to wait how much longer to get his? He will probably get it free when he complains the dealership should have kept it inside

Yeah sure I mean prolly needs some body work. Im no expert but Im sure alot can just be buffed out. Nothing a good wax cant fix/hide.

As far as mechanical things are concerned. As long as she moves down hill on 4 wheels most poeple will be proud to say they ride(not drive) a shelby.

Update from the idiot, I mean seller...

TO ALL E'BAYERS I SOLD THIS CAR TODAY TO A RECYCLER. I DIDNT GET MY $20000 BUT I WAS HAPPY WITH THE BID. I HAD A LOT OF GREAT QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS. MAYBE I PRICED IT TOO HIGH BUT ISNT THAT WHAT AN AUCTION IS FOR.IF YOU LIKE THE PRICE BID IF NOT DONT. I COULD HAVE STARTED AT $1 AND HAD A HUNDRED BIDS ONLY TO NOT SELL IT. DIDNT WANT TO WASTE EVERYONES TIME.MR MOTORMINES IS VERY RUDE AND NEEDS TO GET A LIFE! TO ALL THE OTHERS THANKS FOR YOUR INTEREST.

And trying to steal people's hard earned money isn't rude? Me thinks he was trying to get his ADM post insurance payoff.
