Picked up a new 11 GT500 today

Well, I had one on order with black stripes and Nav. But I fell for this girl. Test drove her a few weeks ago, and she was still there today. I wasn't sold initially on the PP, but the wheels look soooo much better in person. Plus the added $3500. But my dealer ended up working a better deal on this one then I had on my order. I was also planning aftermarket springs/U&LCAs/Panhard, etc. But the more I though about how sometimes aftermarket can be noisy and ride rough, I decided that the "from the factory" PP would do. I didn't want a big drop anyway, so this is good for me. The stripes I can have painted on later anyway. Bananas for me! But here she is:

Looks great! I think getting the white/black stripes they use on the Race Red/Grabber Blue PP cars and throwing them on yours would look awesome, and be unique. I'd love to see someone try a slight twist on the available options.

Congrats, it looks amazing! IMO, it looks soooo much better without stripes. Nice work.

I'm usually not a fan of naked (no stripe) Shelbys. You can add Sterling Silver to the list of colors it still looks good in.

Wow, so unbelievably gorgeous and sleek! Almost looks Euro. Even the HID housings look like they belong.

I'd leave the stripes off. BEAUTIFUL!

Looks fantastic! I really like the GT500's with the performance package and stripe delete. If a Race Red one shows up at my dealership, I am going to have a very difficult time not buying it on the spot!! Have fun with it.

I agree with this. I'd have charcoal gray PP stripes with a dark silver (maybe Tungsten Gray, as long as it contrasts with SG but also blends in) outline. Same with the sidestripes. Would look awesome IMO!

That is a beautiful car!

What a classy color!

Please edit your OP to add Enters between each pic to eliminate the sideways scroll.
