This being one of a few special cars I've owned I'm always nervous taking this kind of vehicle in for service. (Joy rides, overlooking special maintenance requirements, etc.)
I didn't find a thread on dealer service experiences for shelbys, and to be honest this being my first domestic car I was worried the service would be lacking. Even when I had my f type it was just ok and it took 2 days for an oil change, also they would wash it when I explicitly told them not to (honestly their sales department was what turned me off on the brand.)
So for me in socal, North oc. Mccoy mills is so far pretty good (first service). Didn't have to tell them no car wash, they asked me and it was adhered to. Correct wt oil and amount, service guy asked exactly how I wanted the car treated, knew about the staggered tires and asked if I just wanted them flipped which I declined. I know what is said by the service manager is not always what the tech does but it did give me some comfort.
I did not purchase the car from them.
I'm not picky, I just want the oil changed with the correct weight/amount and no wash, and expect the car not to be driven full throttle on a test run.
I was recommended ken grody at first as they apparently sell the most svt vehicles in ca but Mccoy is down the street from my office and I can walk back to work (with a detour at a local brewey)
Hopefully this helps anyone in North oc, I was 50/50 on just doing the maintenance myself but with my truck half taken apart in my driveway i decided I had enough on my plate.
