Thank you for the information. Can you confirm if there are Shelby upgrades available (supercharger, hood, brakes). If there are can you list them. I really appreciate the information. I just changed my mind on color because of the wheels. Unless I see something else it will be white.

 

Thanks again.

Nothing about upgrades, which doesn't mean they won't be available. This wasn't an order guide (didn't even have the drop ship code on it), but an early version to tell us that its coming soon.

 

Funny you said that on the wheels, I just changed my order to white this morning also because of the wheels!.

I agree with your assessment of the black wheels. I want the polished aluminum wheels on the black car. My dealer tried today to order the polished aluminum wheels with the black car and the system would kick it out. That needs to be an option!

 

 

Ditto here as well. I am getting the black car but those wheels will be gone as soon as it gets here. I wanted chrome bullets on the black car.

I want steel wheels and hubcaps! I would just be replacing for Shelby wheels any way so why pay extra for Bullitt wheels?
