New Shelby

My Shelby arrived at the dealer 8/22 but I didn't get to pick it up until 9/6 because I was out of the country for work. I would have posted about it earlier but my keyboard was screwed up until yesterday.

The car is absolutely amazing!! I've put about 1,100 miles on it the past two weeks which is probably 60/40 freeway/city. I can't find enough reasons to take it out and drive it. It pulls like a freight train and I can't seem to get enough of it!!

Here are some pictures I had taken right away. I'll have some other pics soon of the window tint I recently had done.

A big thanks to Matt at Ed Schmid Ford in Ferndale and to Deysha for all of the updates throughout the process!

Here are some pics with the window tint. 20% all around, minus the windshield.

It looked good before, but I think it looks a lot better with the darker windows.

Sexy! Everyone here will be against it, but I'd do 70% on the windshield too...a) it gives the windows a more uniform shade, so your front tint isn't as obvious; b) it helps for night driving because your eyes take longer to adjust looking out your windshield without the tint (and bright headlights) then looking to your side out the dark side windows. Just a suggestion!

No, no it is not a stretch.

This is exactly how a GT500 should look.

He spec'd it exactly how I would have, except I would have gotten glass roof too.

Best car on the site.
