I was running errands the other day and was driving by a local Ford dealer and as I have yet to order a Mustang for myself I always look and drool. While cruising by something unusal caught my eye. A 2005 body style with GT500 markings?!?!?!??! No, it can't be?! I spun around and came back and sure enough it was! i pulled into the dealership and walked over to it. It was a modified V6 with the stripes and door markings all the way down to the cobra badge on the side. NO Shelby name on the trunk but it did have dual exhaust. The saleswoman I talked to said that the shop had modified the car themselves and that it and another with GT350 markings were for sale. This was the first time I had seen a Mustang so heavily dealer modified. Forgive the cude images, camera phone.[attachmentid=18998]

The blue one does have a ducktail. I was unhappy only because I was ready to buy a GT when the Cobra was introduced and now I am hot for the Cobra. I though this was like a road show car and I could get a preview only to find out it was a modified V6.javascript:emoticon(':bang:') If I remember correctly they were charging an extra $2500 for the mods.javascript:emoticon(':scratch:')

That's not too bad considering all the mods they've put into it and the time and effort you would have to do.

I saw it tooooo!!! Same day! There off 281
I only saw the white one. Tunnel vision I guess.
The louvers were seemless into the body. Looked sharp for a V-6.
I was going to drive home and grab the camera but alas...
I had chores awaiting me.

I hope they have one those LED third brake lights in the rear window beacuse they covered up the original one. I assume that's a CDC spoiler.
