Enjoy









HUGE SHOUT OUT TO ZACK HOBBS-My salesman that got the car here QUICK...didn't order till March 28th

Me and the 2 week old as of 2PM baby.

Me and the baby, the shelby, and the boss











Under car pictures suck, but it's what I had to work with.

I don't have much of anything to compare it too, and add in the fact that I only put in 40 miles of driving so *that honestly, were too busy acting like a kid* I can't give a really good opinion.

If I had to , it's that the car feels very solid. It's a blast to sit in, and feel around you. Loads larger than my '99. Powerful, feels planted.

Again, I'll have a real opinion later as I gain some comfort..I was on edge driving it,scares me a bit

Lol... Well be safe... My 08 with its 750++hp still scares me too...I just love all the improvements on the 13.. Basically everything us older model guys did as mods over the years they put in the 13... I'm destined to get a 13 or 14 one day to add to my stable with my 08... Well have fun with yours and keep us posted!!

Like I said congrats!

I'd slap some black or even matte black stripes on that baby and make it look MEAN.
