Maybe a dumb question, but What are the "Shelby" differences between a GT and a Shelby GT? Performance difference or pretty much cosmetic? Stripes and a dash plaque? Nice car BTW, just wondering the differences.

pretty car man.

I kinda dig the no spoiler look as well. Its very clean.

The only thing that would make that car look better if it was in my driveway.

well that and change out that 891" radio antena

I'm sure there's more differences that I'll be able to list here.

The GT500 is supercharged and pushes out over 500hp. It has 14" Brembo Brakes and a much more aggressive performance/handling package. It's the highest performance car that Ford's ever produced so that is their way of justifying the additional $15,000 for it ($60,000 pricetag).

And no, they're 10" JL Audio 10W1 V2's.

I plan on removing the dealer **** sometime soon. Hopefully today or tomorrow.

Well, they took off the Dealership Sticker. They weren't too thrilled about having to do it, but they did it. The rear end looks so much nicer now. :)

Ya know what the McDonald's dudes in the back do how when you go into McDonald's and ask for a cheesburger with no pickles?

Sweet car!!!

Wait; you have a Shelby GT, not a GT500, right?

Gorgeous car. I saw one just like it the other day in a showroom here. I think it looks so much better in person than in photos. Congrats and have fun with it.
