Vogon Posted March 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 I already have. I print most of the SS threads. One day this crap might be worth something. michael morris Not sure where you are in Georgia, but since you announced that your car is ready, I've had a 6-day weather widget for Savannah on my Mac. Just watching to make sure the weather's good when your car arrives. It would be a real downer to have to wait for any rain to stop. Lookin' good so far! Lots of people living through you SS-completed guys... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MY500SS Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 After seeing Gary's red SS in Vegas it was like damn that's the SS color for me. Then I see Amy's GO SS at the Birthday Bash and I think maybe Marji will let me get a GO GT500 to SS. And now Bud shows this GREAT LOOKING Alloy SS. That's it, I want them all. Now all I need to do is win the lottery and I'm set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Oil Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 The alloy SS looks wicked!!! thanks for putting those up, Bud. Forgive me if this has been asked+answered a million times: is the car's final ride height exactly the same whether we choose SS Shelby/Eibach suspension vs. SS FRPP suspension ? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlpineSuperSnake Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 i heard they made a black SS for a movie and is being picked up monday.....does anybody know how many were made yet??? I have no idea. But I can tell you that my Vista Blue, CSM #07SS0032, 725HP baby is very, very close to being done. Bud and SAI have been doing an awesome job cranking through this and I love seeing all of the pictures of the various colors of Super Snakes! They are all certainly beautiful in their own right. If I'm lucky, I should get the call from Cynthia next week that my car is ready to be picked up. BTW, Bud if you are reading this thread. You certainly have my permission to post any pictures of my car online that you'd like. Much like the rest of you on this thread, I can't wait!!

I've seen posts about people thinking blue may not be the best looking, with the flat black stripes. Obviously, I hope they're wrong (see signature). But it does make one anxious.

BTW, from the images it looks like you do not have the standard black SuperSnake side stripes? Is this correct? Or are they just washed out from the digital camera. Enjoy the car!

cobrafan Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 725, Welcome. You and Michael may have to get into the octagon, it is a close race. When SAI finally releases Oasis, it's going to be fun. They know to the minute when the last part was put on. If you actually drove your's on the 21st, it looks like you may capture the title. Congratulations. She is a beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your SS looks absolutely STUNNING. I will also be at Calabasas this Sunday and will definitely be looking for your SS. I've got to see her in person.

Really a good looking color. Im to old to get into an octagon and fight over which car is first. You drove you car first, but my left the day before. So I have NO IDEA what that means! What really matters is that these cars are AWESOME. I havent been able to drive mine any distance. Did you drive it back to CA. Just wandering how it is on trips. michael morris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wandering how it is on trips. michael morris I know, lets buy a video game and get in an octagon that way. HAHA. I drove it around Vegas and trailered it back home. I have been driving it around L.A. I think the ride is fine since the seats are so relatively soft. I say relatively because i have some very stiff cars with very stiff seats like the Porsche GT3 and a Ferrari Challenge Stradale. This is very drivable on long trips. I am going to drive it long distances this weekend and will post more feedback. All my friends want me to stop driving it and store it as an investment. DOn't know hat the car is worth and doesnt matter, I love driving cars, not a collector. I love the red also. Nice choice. I know, forget the octagon, lets drag race for the honors.

HAHA I'm glad to hear that you're not taking your friends' advice. These things are made to be driven, and I'm looking forward to your reviews. You and Michael get to say that you had the first 725HP SS's coming out of Vegas. Let's see, Michael's was the first NAKED SS (no hood cables or lettering), and yours was the first fully-dressed.
