I'm looking to get a White Shelby GT Auto Help

I am on the search for a 2007 White Shelby GT Auto (no manual) Black Interior.

Their was one at a local dealer I was looking at, but it was sold already.

I've been able to locate some searching online, but their all manual trans. Found one auto but the interior isn't to my liking. I'm not ready to settle yet lol.

Sooo if anyone is looking to sell or know of one please send me a msg or reply to this posting I'd appreciate it Also if you know of any good sites to search on that someone might list. I check autotrader, ebay, and fords certified pre-owned inventory almost every day.

Thank so much

Try searching for Michael Morris from Wayne Morris Ford in Georgia. He is a Shelby enthusiast spoken highly of on several other forums. He is a regular on the Team Shelby forum, but that site is down at the moment. Try tomorrow. Maybe Stangsunleashed? He can find any car you seek, or so I hear, and can be trusted. Good luck. I saw a gorgeous white 07, auto, in 2008 in Denver. It had nav, the CS-6 hood, lower fogs and brake ducts, AND a supercharger, all pre-title from Shelby! They claimed it was one of only 5 blown automatics Shelby made that year. They wanted $66k in January and $46k in May when I bought my 08 SGT. It sold later in the summer for $36k. What a bargain!

Dawn: You may want to expand your searching to also look for a possible 2008 Shelby-GT. As Shelby had made several nice improvements to it that following year? CalStang

Thanks for the help

I would be interested in a 2008 as well but only one problem...they only made white for 2007 sooo I'm pretty limited there. Also their are more black and manuals, then white and auto.

As for possibly locating one new, I was told ford can only search 2008 yr models and up on dealer lots. So enless I run across one that has one I have no way of searching.

I was just looking at exactly what you want a few minutes ago. I do believe Ford put a SC in it though. I can roll by and see what they are asking on the window if you want.

Hey, thanx colby. One thing is I am trying to find one for under $30,000. So if it has that super charger then I'm sure it will be priced high. May I ask if it is at a ford dealership? If so can you tell me what one and I can try looking it up. I don't want to waste your time driving anywhere.

I live only about 20 mins from Joe Hayward Ford in Dallas, Oregon. First let me tell you that they originally tried to sell it to me back in 2007. I told them pound sand because of their jacked up price, then I ordered my 2008 (not from them). They are known for ripping people off price wise.

I will do this for you though. I will call them, talk to the owner and ask them if they really want to get that car off their lot since it's been sitting for 2 yrs.

I took some pics for you and will attach here shortly..Photobucket is down.

"New" with 5100 miles asking $45K. That's a lot of test drives.

I think they made around nine hundred 2007 automatic white Shelby GT's. I watch on ebay all the time and I see them regularly. I would say at least twice a month. That is only 24 a year so you have to be patient. Some are nearing 20 to 40 thousand miles and I have seen a few sell for mid twentys. Still low mile 07' SGT' (less than 10 thousand mile) are going for around 26,000 to 29,000 it seems.

Well I called and talked to the idiots. They didnt appear to want to budge on the price stating that its still "new". I asked them if the supercharger had been woke up yet and they ofcourse said yes. My reply was, then its definitely not new now is it.

I think they deserve a few calls from all you guys asking them how they could be so stupid to ask so much for a car that is over 3 yrs old.

Um, I didn't read each page but, a Shelby GT @ 300 hp does not have a super charger from the factory.

If it did it would be a GT 500 and have functional hood vents like my sig pic.

Also, GT 500's never came with an auto trans. Still dont. 6 speed manual only.

Shelby GT's do have auto trans but not many of them.

Ms. Saleen - I noticed your post on Team Shelby. Just give it some time!

Dealer added Paxton SC......Ohhh but don't forget for $16,500 extra you also get 19hp more than a stock GT. Lets see, I can spend about $3k on the mods or give for almost 20k...Hmmmm

There were factory installed SC's. Less than 50 Paxtons were installed on the 07's. The later 07's had an option for Whipple's. In the 08's had Whipples and Kenne-Bells.

not from the factory. That was a Shelby modification.
