    Just bought a black 2007 gt 500 with 5700 miles, love the car so far, but after reading some of the problems people have with the clutch im kinda worried. I did buy the extended warranty but i dont think a clutch is covered under that. Havent noticed any problems with it so far, but it does have low miles.
    anyways im located in VA, name is Eric.

    Hello and welcome. You will get good info on clutch experiences here. I also have an 07 Shelby GT500. I did modify it to a 725 Super Snake at about 12,000 miles. I had to replace my clutch at about 15,000 miles. I think the extra hp and torque shortened my clutch life. I don't think it was totally the cause though. That's my experience. Again, welcome!
