Limited Edition Cars That Weren't; Buyers Send In Lawyers

Roush Stage 3 BlackJack When buyers of the limited edition 2007 Roush Stage 3 BlackJack, a modified Ford Mustang, bought the cars, they thought they were getting some special, thinking only 100 of those had been produced. Turns out the limited edition isn't so limited after all.

A class action lawsuit filed in New York accused Ford and Roush of producing 100 more of these cars in 2008 thereby reducing the value of the existing cars.

"The vehicles purchased by the plaintiff and the other class members were not as unique or rare as the defendants had stated them to be. Their value from scarcity and as collectors' items were and are dramatically less than the buyers had been led to believe their value would be," the plaintiffs said in the complaint.

According to Reuters report, the buyers paid nearly 60K for the vehicles.
