Well, after 2 years of crazy relentless research on the Shelby GT350 I finally purchased one last Saturday. I have watched every youtube video, read nearly every post on this forum, every single day. So I want to thank all of you who posted all the information and pics about this car which made me become obsessed with it! I have to say this car is absolutely amazing! It's even more amazing than what I expected and I had high expecations! Instead of measuring mph it's sph (smile per hour) :headbang:

Now on what I bought, I bought a 2017 Race Red with electronics package, stripe delete, and car cover with 2 miles on the odometer. I drove 4 hours to get it.... that was a fun 4 hours back home!!!
I haven't slept much every since I decided to pull the trigger, like a kid at Christmas.

I haven't driven a manual in 17 years, but this car is a breeze to drive. The exhaust note, power, and the handling is unmatched for the price! I'm a car guy, but never owned a performance car... always practical vehicles. I read all the magazines and watch all the car shows I can. Yep... I'm a car nut! Yes, I like to research. But never jumped in to make a purchase. But this car lures you in and I couldn't stop thinking about it. With the encouragement of my wife I finally did it.

Sorry for sounding so crazy about this car, I can't help it, I love it! It really looks better in person than in pics or videos.

More pics to come. I need to wash it from the long journey.

Very nice...... Think about either painting or wrapping the roof in black. Just a suggestion.

One of my favorite colors.
