For me its more about the car I love my GT don't get me wrong and have no corals with the Boss other than the first years color schemes :P but for me its really about the dream... since I was 4-5 years old always loved Shelby's from the AC Cobra to the GT350 & GT500 not so much the Daytona but that's just personal preference I would love to have one but would rather have an AC Cobra. But for me it's more about that dream some people dream of one day owning a castle my dreams has always been Shelby. And if I buy it I would guess its gonna stay perfectly OEM only add-on will be an air freshener :P but who knows that could change... if this speech works on the Lady Boss then it's a done deal

You're probably correct as far as profit goes... like I said in above post it's more for me because I know I could NEVER own an original Shelby the first of its kind. Even if I could afford it I would be afraid to drive it for fear of scratches, paint chips. And I'd be afraid to garage it for fear of the the garage giving out and falling on it or the garage bursting into flames. With the 2014 will be the last Shelby (at least by the looks of it) and it will be something wont be TOO afraid to drive :P

I honestly don't think I'll use it that often... the adjustable suspension would be nice to have but the lighter rims aren't huge issue the extra oil coolers and the torsen differential would be great but not sure if they'd really be worth the extra money cause from what I can see the deal I'm after on this standard version is pretty awesome.

Clean house to get her to talk about getting the Shelby then begging, jewelry, more begging, cooked dinner, and then hopefully I'll have her convinced or maybe just one rollercoaster ride in the 662HP Monster might seal the deal (I'm never that lucky lol)

I think I wanted the Shelby MORE than my husband lol so no extra favors were needed for that purchase... But really, follow your dreams! If you can swing it...GO FOR IT! The 14' GT500 if absolutely insane! I never drove anything like it...sheer rawr horsepower! I still like roasting tires in third...... 
she will get over it ....can't wait to mod her out over 800+ hp....you can't do that in a GT.....just saying : D

I do that just for you cause I remember how much it bugs you. On a foot note... the more I research into this car the more I fall in love with it. I didn't know that the first car Carroll Shelby made for Ford was an Oxford White with Blue stripe GT350. I knew the car but never paid that much attention to the color scheme.

And it's not really a run-on sentence so much as it is me typing as fast as I'm thinking. And just can't get enough words out to express how excited I am about this car. lol

Yea I talked to salesman about that. He said if I wanted to run a convertible GT500 I'd have to have a rollcage welded in. Oddly enough the convertible Mustangs don't really do it for me I love the look just not my cup of tea. Course I say that and I've never driven one might be different looking out from the inside.
