CRS Jet Spares is getting ready to celebrate its 25th year by treating one lucky winner to a 2007 Ford Mustang GT convertible. What better prize could there be?
Each participant will receive a key to the Mustang, but only one of them will have the key that starts the car tomorrow at 3 p.m. Thirteen of these finalists participated in this year’s CRS Customer Appreciation Anniversary Tour, with one selected at each stop. The company will randomly select two more finalists here at NBAA 2007 from among qualified visitors at the CRS booth until noon tomorrow.
Among the Shelby GT’s top traits, claims the press release, is that “production is limited in volume, assuring its exclusivity.” What it doesn’t explain is that sales volumes have a way of staying small when a special-edition model costs 40 percent more than the model it’s based on and boosts horsepower by just six percent.
Produced by Carrol Shelby, the 2007 Shelby GT500 is one of the most hyped Ford Mustangs every produced. Produced on a phenominal chassis (Ford redesigned the chassis in 2005) with every ounce of horsepower Ford could squeeze out of an engine (and retain the full factory warrantly), this car handles and accellerates like a dream. This is the most powerful factory built Ford Mustang every produced.
