SVT Performance Package (Option 67F) will you be able to get this on a GT?

SuperSugeKnight

GT500 only. You get a new rear spoiler, 3.73 gears, no stripes, and new wheels.

On another forum there was speculation that the SVT option (67F) was a GT option not a GT500 option.

It's listed under Shelby here. Actually the source of the info found it listed under Shelby Convertable.

It would be nice if it was an option to have SVT Cobra badges instead of having Shelby on your car.

Thanks Brad that's looking for 6spd auto.

A GT 500 covertable option makes the most sense, maybe the GT500 coupe will get 3.73 gears standard

I kinda like the Shelby name in the back, that's the only place that I can think of that actually says it.

I'm wondering if you take away the Shelby, is it still a GT500? or is it now an SVT Cobra?

I also like the name GT500 more than the Shelby.

Someones a lil slow

So is that link the sole source for declaring the Package 402A as the California Special package?

I'm a little skeptical because of the way the dealer from gminsidernews stated, "402A Package looks to be return of California Special." Doesn't sound too definitive to me - so I'm hoping for a second source on this.

What i'd like to see will not happen in the near future, but I'd rather have an SVT Cobra than a Shelby GT500.


I know what Shelby used to be, but all it is now is his licensing slapped on a Ford car.


I know why Ford does it. It's the same reason original Shelby GT500's sell for way north of $100,000. Ford's trying to get the nostalgic baby boomers in for the GT500 they did or didn't have back then. The SVT monicker carries far more weight with me. I'd personally choose a car that was SVT over a Shelby. I'd probably even $100 more for it to not have Shelby on it.

Any idea if GT/CS be available at launch?
Or if it will be at the LA Auto Show?

NOOOOOO don't make another cali special jeeez! lol

Take the Shelby logos off. Problem solved.

Let see...

Shelby logos:

1 trunk
1 Center armrest

SVT logos:

4 rim centercaps
2 door sills
1 air filter inlet
2 valve covers
1 speedo

It's an SVT. Now go buy one.

2k7gtcs

That's not quite the same.

I realize its a SVT. But its also a SHELBY. Taking the logos off doesn't change that fact.

Just like removing all the badges from my GT, which is also a GT/CS didn't change that fact either.

eci

good lord.

Your GT/CS is a GT with stickers on it. You are just making excuses. Everyone who is a Mustang fan knows the 07-10 car is an SVT Cobra with some logos on it. We all know who designed and built the car. SVT. You just can't mentally get over the fact that it doesn't say "SVT" on the top of the sticker? Excuses.
