congrats on the new family purchase get pics asap. I mean when i get out of college in 2yrs i will probably end up buying one of these shelbys when the price has stabilized and i have means to get it. I mean 500 hp for 45k. not bad imo and of course they had to have more power than the terminators they weigh like 700 lbs more. Terminators are excellent cars as will the shelbys be in due time

i think they are a nice looking car but they are not much faster thatn the 03/04 model. I thinkk that car and driver put it at only a tenth faster in the quarter. and one of the local owners around here just dynoed theird bofroe and after some basic mods and the numbers were kindof dissapointing. i'll see if I can find the specifics.

I didn't really take him as bragging, per se, just excitement. Congrats to you and your dad for over-paying on a bloated pig of a car. 4000 pounds? Disgusting, and it even has a solid. What were they thinking by adding that much weight to it? Add a driver and your in GTO country. Big whoop, it has 500 flywheel hp. It needs that just to compete with the 03/04 models.
