Imagine the premium price these will be going for when some motivated GT owners buy theirs, then turn them around on eBay. I kind of like this concept - kind of like Ferrari does as a perk for owners - even if it does make me extremely jealous.

that link only leads to a pic gallery, is there an article somewhere? I for one don't like Ford trying to put mustang prices up that high and trying to make them more exclusive. I rather see them just do more versatile stuff with them, esp when it comes to color. the one really nice thing about the mustang has been the power and affordability of them. making them more pricey makes it harder to modify them, if people even have the guts to modify a more expensive car. keep it simple and let people customize them, make it their own.

that is a weird color combo in the gallery too....lol

Link fixed - thanks.

I'm not a fan of Heritage Blue at all, but they come in the colors of the GTs in case the owners want matching rides. Maybe HQ thought this would be a surefire way to soak a lot more money out of (rich) enthusiasts. I think it would be dumb for a GT owner NOT to buy one, simply because it is already an extremely limited edition and the resale, should they not total it in the first few days of ownership (like so many "GT totaled" stories we've heard), will be that of a true exotic. Insert comment about people with more money than brains here, but sometimes I think I'd like to be one of them.
