Upgrade for $10k -- my first thought was "no that's stupid", then I was halfway sold on the cool factor, then thinking about it ... $10k for what looks to be new wheels plus tires, plus the extra bits, that's actually not THAT crazy of a price tag.

Anyone thinking about it?

I would not pay the premium, but that's just my opinion.

looks like 4-6k in parts roughly, but I don't like the wheels or seat covers or stripe or tail panel emblem, sooooooo nope. also think it's weird they don't list what tires they use since the value of those could vary quite a bit.

Personally for that money I'd rather get some nice forgeline wheels and choose my own other upgrades and likely still not hit the 10k mark.

This is like getting paid to translate English to English. Shelby America cooperated with FP in designing the GT350 and GT500...

Does seem like a bit of a cash grab but I guess if you are a Shelby fanatic this and/or the GT500 version are for you. Although, I don't know who would want forged wheels over the CF (assuming the platform is a R)?

 

[Chumley]

Not my kind of thing at all, but as far as these things go I don't think it's that unreasonable.

I personally don't think it's a bad deal, especially if you own a "base" model GT350. I did a rough estimate of all of the parts they put on and it comes out to be in the $7K range not including labor to install all of the parts. You also get the Shelby American team to put it all together for you so it's not a bad option. It may not make a lot of sense if you already own an R with all of its "upgrades", but $10K to make your base model 350 better may not be such a bad idea. That's just my opinion.

I agree, If I had to base GT350 I would look into getting this done, the vinyl panel stripes look good. Im not a fan of the Shelby Signature on the seats though.

This is nice if you want your car to be a little more "Shelby" and also getting a CSM number is a big deal.

But, I personally would go to the Hennessy HPE850 treatment way if I wanted to spend $10K on my car. That's more 'badass' in my preference.

I looked at this hard but, I am a hardcore Shelby fan. My issue is with the R. The R is already limited. If I still owned my Base, Id be 10G lighter

I’m not sold on it- my personal preference- I do like the leather, but that signature looks so cheesy and out of place

I think the GT500 is far more interesting.

Sure, but I don't have a GT500 ;)

I really like the forged CS21 wheels in black. I can't seem to find these being sold separately in this color.
Maybe this is exclusive to the Signature Series.

They need @50 Deep to provide them with some lugs.

And that “Shelby” graphics font... interesting
