The magazines weighed the Vert in at 4,000# and the coupes @ 3900#. They must have weighed them at a heavy scale or our local scale is off. My Vette weighed in # 3340# locally.

Well I like the gt500 and the gt40 HELL I LIKE SPORTS CARS!!! But......... Some owners own themselves because they dont know what the fk they are talking about. I race and beat a gt500 with upgrades and a gt40 in the same day. Was it a bus load race no but I won. The gt40 was the best because his car was so loud I had to watch my tach untill i pulled him. But the guy was cool and gave the thumbs up. The gt500 just rooled up his windows and drove off. After he talk all that ish.

I've seen some SS's priced well into the $30's back in '02.

Affirmative, when I was looking at the 98ss black, sticker said just shy of $34k. Damn things are expensive for the time.

$43K is nothing for a car these days.

It was just about $41k not counting tax and tags. The following year, they were $36k out the door.

How much did the 35th SS's go for back in 02, hell I saw them for 35k at dealers, and no offense but when you compare the Shelby to a 02 SS it aint even close. They are very sweet looking and have a forged 5.4 4V blower motor STOCK. I love my SS but GM isnt even trying while Ford is pumping out some FAST *** pony cars, you do realize the last 2 Cobra mustangs ford made have been THE FASTEST pony cars ever right? Props to Ford for these cars cause GM gave up.
