SGT0701 Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 Today while detailing the Shelby, my neighbor's 3 year old son came over to admire and offer his assistance. He said "That is the coolest car ever, does it make fire?" Then after visiting a while and asking more questions, he said something that I knew Amy would appreciate..."That car looks just like a big Hot Wheels!"

jaws Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Kids are the best. My twin 6 year old daughters already have their eyes on 'Stangs at our local dealer. One wants a red one with "fire" (flames); the other wants 08SGT0497 coupe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuLu Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 I have two nephews, one who turned 6 today, and the other is 3. Both are over-the-top in love with my SGT and I cannot visit without bringing it along. Well, the weather is sh*t here right now, and LuLu is sleeping until spring. When the 6 year old complained about me not bringing LuLu, I gave him his b-day present. A 1/8 scale die cast SGT in black, and I was immediately forgiven. Looks like kids of all ages love this car as much as I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reedae1856 Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 My 3 year old niece told me that I had a pretty car. I told her that it was a fast car and she didn't grasp the concept until I told her it was like "Stickers" from the movie Cars. Then she said "thats a fast car don't get any speeding tickets". I wonder how she knows about speeding? Adam SGT3670 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azquadz Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 That's a good story. I had a group of young teenagers take a bunch of photos with their cell phones the other day. One kid kept saying, "Cool car Man." .... I seem to find that I get more compliments from men who know about the Shelby name. A lot of the women around just say, "that's a nice shiny black car."

watch Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Since the temp is in the mid 70's in Atlanta the motorcycle cops are out and about. Had one pull up next to me at a light and say "nice car, looks great" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
