The best deal I've found a Shelby is a dark blue with STV and Nav for $53k. The USAA pricing is almost $57k. Only problem is that it's 10 hrs

That's KONA BLUE sir and the best color mind you hehe.

Is that for a coupe or vert? That doesn't even include negotiations yet. For that matter, why locate one? Just order new...that's what I did. Made in just the way I like it.


Dan, I forgot to tell you btw, I sprung for HID/security pkg!!!

I figured I only had one shot at this, and why not get the car I really want. I got spoiled with all the HID's from my other cars. Going back to Halogen was probably not a good idea. The Comfort pkg I didn't get... don't need heated as I never drive it in winter.

first one i test drove was HID/comfort/401a/shaker1000. wound up getting 400a with RR and I'm pretty happy. I actually had better visibility with the halogens, but my eyesight is kinda weird...i like the look of the hids much better though

That's interesting. Maybe the halogens are that good...

Btw, here's the black shelby coupe we test drove at lunch today. Damn, what a sweet car. The biggest shock to me is still how smooth that tranny was. Smoother than 5.0. The clutch was softer than 5.0. Also, the car had EIGHT miles when we drove it. LOL.
