How exactly would everyone that wants the shelby lights suggest ford do that. The spot where the lights would go opens up with the trunk. the only way it would work is if they split the lights, which would be crappy. i am much happier the went with this instead of trying to jimmy rigg extended shelby lights on the back.

All I can say is that I'm excited!!!!
Okay, let's see here...keep the current 05 and buy a new Cobra, trade in the 05 for the new Cobra or sell out-right the 05 and get the new Cobra? I'm SURE I could get more than what I paid for the current car. Too many questions and too much speculation too early. I learned this when the 05 came about.
I'll be talking with my dealer shortly!!!

More... This is Jay O'Connell, SVT Chief Vehicle Engineer, Ford Motor Company
I don't know if it means anything or not, but if you look at the board in the background with the red and blue/white mustangs on it, you can see that there isn't any scoops over the quarter window. Also looks like some spoked wheel in the drawings also. Then again, they are just drawings so I guess we'll still have to wait and see tomorrow

What everyones missing in the pic. is that the poster in the back ground of the red car next to a poster of a blue Shelby is the SVT Mustang/Cobra. All thats missing on the red car is the strips and the front chin spoiler, Which leds me to believe the Shelby is an option package.

Check out this link for an article that is out a few hours early. Maybe some of you have already seen it but it's the first time that I've seen or heard of it.

Red/White, Blue/white and White/Blue are probably locks as they are all favorite Shelby colors and have been seen in the pictures from Ford the last two days. I'm hoping for Black/Silver or gold.
