Beautiful car and writeup. I think I have seen your Shelby before, are you in Somerset county?

Thanks! Nope not in Somerset I'm in Bergen but it's possible that I was driving there...mine is titanium with black stripes...and loud as hell...and usually I'm going sideways while trying to go straight...

By the way, those pics were taken BEFORE I put on the snows...I have to say...the summer tires did reasonably well.

Here's a few of the cobra for you:







It's in the shop now getting some work done...new carb, sweet snakeskin valve covers and air cleaner, lowered an inch, new matching heat shields, etc.

Will post more pics when I get it back.

I went to a dealer today to drive 2008 Speed. They gave it to me for an hour and it was a blast. I noticed the little stutter in the steering wheel, but it wasn't that bad. I think I'm sold. It was black! and it had light brown interior (the one I like the most).

Although it was pretty much what I want I think it was over priced and it was not a Bentley dealer and there were some light marks in the paint that I didn't like and too much attention from everyone in there. It had 5k miles on it. I think I get one from Germany in April. In Germany there is much better offering.

But man, it was so much fun. To me it is about everything you could ask for!

***** (5 stars)

I just had the car detailed...man I can't believe how dirty it was inside and out!

Anyway, I figured I would post up some pics...I'll take more tomorrow in the sunlight.

Note that I have the snow wheels and tires on it this time around...
