jrod Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Hey everyone, I recently picked up a 07 Shelby GT. I am absolutely in love with it! I live in LA, which has an exotic car on every corner and i still manage to get looks and people asking me about it. It feels great knowing i'm driving a legendary car upgraded by a legendary man. I look forward to learning all about the Shelby and am plannning some definate upgrades in the near future...Supercharger anyone?? :D Looking forward to meeting everyone. Thanks, Jared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFBLUE Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Welcome Jared. Did you or the dealer add the rear spoiler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrod Posted June 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Welcome Jared. Did you or the dealer add the rear spoiler? I believe it was the dealer. If I were to chose, I think I would have went with the lip spoiler style instead, but its growing on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipmodeler Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Hi Jared, Great car eh? I live in San Diego, your right about LA, I took a drive up there 3 months ago and people were pointing at my car after super exotic cars had just passed! I like the GT spoiler on your car, I went with the GT500 spoiler but it was a hard decision. My V6 vert has the Gt spoiler. It really jazzes up the car. Take care, Stephen Vick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were you, I would seriously entertain the GT500 spoiler, given that you already have holes drilled in your deck lid. Something to think about. And, welcome to you. We are glad to have you here and look forward to hearing from you in the days ahead. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelby Nick Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Jared, Congrats on your new Shelby! I can't see the picture from here, but if you purchased it at Montebello Ford I was looking at the same car. It looked great!

I haven't written in awhile but did anyone else notice the missing 'Powered by Ford' badges? :huh: RetroAlex #2946 Miami, FL ooh, good catch. That sucks. Some old guy was checking out my car the other day to figure out what company it was made by (yeah I know, don't ask me) and wouldn't have been able to tell if it wasn't for my powered by ford badges. hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and about the missing powered by ford, I'm glad that isn't on there, i feel it takes away from the flow of the car. First...welcome. We could use a few more SGT owners on this site. Even if you prefer the SGT without the badges, I would request the badges from the dealer. Then put them in a safe place in case you sell the vehicle some day. The badges are hard to come by and are not cheap. We have seen them go for $250+ on eBay. You want to get them. Now check out ShelbyPerformance.com A lot of new ways to spent you $$$$$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
