Funny how those brakes are "discounted" by $1K while this website has been offering them at $1965.99 ever since I started checking them out (around August 2010). Just saying

Yeah, but those say "Baer" on the caliper, not "Shelby". Everyone knows just the word Shelby makes it extra awesome.

In fact, you have increased the value of your car by at least $1,000.

That's what I thought about my last 2 Mustangs. There's always something newer and better.

Shush! dont need to hear it...I am already kicking myself about that whole ordeal. I was so close to buying an 11 Gt500...then backed off....now I just spent 2 grand on breaks....I have gone to far...cant sell her now.

I plan on being the cool dad with the mustang setting in the shed under a dusty tarp...in mint condition.

Probably give it to my son when he turns 16. I will have my corvette by then hopefully.

Blasphemy! Lol, you know if your son could read this he'd encourage any and every little mod that crossed your mind from now until he turns 16.

It should since it costs twice as much and does not have to make the compromises that the Mustang does. The GT500 compares pretty well with the base 'Vette.

So now the Mustang is competing against the Corvette in class? That's just old, tired and retarded X10.

The Corvette's a nice car. I've just never been into them. I'm a bang for the buck kind of guy, which is why I like the Mustang.
