It's Here

Dealer is getting it down off the truck and 'Mrs. Cobra' went to take pictures.

More tonight when I have it in my hot little hands.

Remind me specifically what you guys wanted pictures of (front aerodam, headers/exhaust, etc.)

Now that my car is no longer being moved around the AAI lot like Cain wandering the earth, guess I need to change my signature.

Congrats! Hey, I see you live in Columbus, so do I. I have a 2010 Shelby, so maybe we could meet up sometime and get some comparison shots for everyone. Shoot me a pm.

Thanks for the love guys. As promised here are some pics from this evening.

Disclaimer: She has not been to the detailers yet. Got most of the accumulated dust and bird sh*t off from nearly seven weeks of parking lot rot. Grrr...

Points of interest:

- Photo 2: Can't see it very well but the silver pinstripes on the outside of the red are definitely metallic. Sharp.

- Photo 3: The new wheel well lining kind of feels like old timey trunk liner. Not quite fuzzy but definitely textured.

- Photo 4: Someone was asking if the tips looked outsized. I don't think so but opinions may vary.

- Photo 6: New pumpkin and painted axle. Woo woo!

- Photo 7: Nice pic of the rear suspension. Note those springs, beefy sway and LCA

- Photo 8: Best view of the new 'aero panel' I could do without jacking up the car. You can see it joins the front air dam underneath and runs nearly to the sump of the oil pan.

Will do. Need to get you roped into the local stang club where you can obsess with the best.

She will see Mid Ohio this summer. Do *not* expect the ***** out 10/10ths performance we saw out of the Ford driver. He wrecks his, they get him another (probably from Ramp 51). I wreck mine and I'm living in a van down by the river.

Thanks sir. Yes, I've never seen another GT500 LCA in person so I don't know if it represents an upgrade from any prior years. I can tell you it looks like it has twice the meat of my original '07 GT/CS LCAs.

I'll give it a few launches tomorrow and report.

Looks great!!

In the pic of the rear shock absorber it looks like the fuel/breather lines have dropped down. I see a plastic retainer pin pointing upwards, the tip of the pin is right in the middle of the "SVT" label on the muffler. I presume it needs to be pushed back into place.

Thank you gentlemen. When I saw this video from the Chicago Auto show it clenched my choice:
