It looks fantastic, I love it. :like:

I'm currently in limbo as to what to do with my '15. I've talked with SA about doing the widebody conversion on it, minus the Super Snake portion, and twin turboing it after. They'll do a widebody conversion as a stand alone, and such a beast still goes in the Shelby registry but not as an SA serialized car like yours. However, unless you pop for the Super Snake, you don't get that front fascia or hood as they are SS-only; it would still be a looker, but not as much so. The lead time is another bummer, it's out there and I'd miss having the car around to drive on weekends.

Then again, assuming the new GT500 market ever cools off, I'm tempted to just go that route after they've proven to be solid and the ADM nonsense subsides. But I've held the pink slip for my '15 for several years and learned it's 1 of 1 as optioned, so the inkling is to hang onto it as is for the time being. I don't really have space for another car at the moment either unless I add a sixth stall, so it's keep what I have and leave it alone, keep what I have and go nuts, or upgrade.....

First world problems.

Hard decision! The new Gt500 is awesome. I know SA is working on a wide body for it. You could wait n get a GT500 then Wide Body it! That would be sick. But I can tell you nothing stands out like the Wide body sooooo glad I went with it. If you have not seen one in person you can’t gauge how freakin nuts it is! I have had and been around some amazing cars they can’t touch this one for presence! People lose their shit when they see it! Plus with 860 hp it’s the scariest car I have ever driven hands down not even close!
