Had an opportunity to buy a low mile 2007 red coupe with white stripe and charcoal/crimson interior that I will be picking up tomorrow if the schedule holds. The problem is now the SS issue. I love my Grabber 08 coupe and am just waiting for the call....but if I SS the 07 it will have that menacing red look and 40th tags......or maybe I just do the 40th package and some Evo upgrades on the 07 and keep both. What do you guys think? I have complete documentation on my 08 Grabber purchase, and am getting it more slowly on the 07. Very confused at this point.

40th the Red with SS upgrades and SS the GO.

MM- You got me into this mess with those photos of your car after the upgrade!!LOL. Thanks all for the input. I spoke to Doug and Cynthia today about the 40th package. I will probably do the Basic 40th package and Evolution upgrades and skip the Shelby power packages. I will SS the Grabber Orange car as planned. Not sure about the silver stripe yet...I love the way the white wakes up the red. Hmmmmmm. More to think about. Now... I better get off this darn site and go make some money!!

40th the 07 ( Red with the silver strips looks the best, IMO )

SS the 08 ( the GO with flat black stands out big time )

SS the GO

Evo the red, that way you can keep the white stripes. You can also do it progressively, and watch the money leak out instead of as a lump... :hysterical3:

"Not sure about the silver stripe yet" one step closer to a KR :hysterical:

I think you have to much money, and should give me some. :headspin:

hey supersnake its sandro I met you at the ford dealer in margate. I think you should just concentrate on one only (Grabber SS) best color combo. Unless your getting the 07 for a good deal. Good Luck!

Hey Sandro- Good memory- How have you been? Maybe we can get the cars together one nite at Steak and Shake and suck down some calories. I am really torn on this issue because while Grabber is super hot as an SS, so is the red. My problem though is caused by the fact that I am hung up about driving my cars in the rain. My original GT500 was going to be an SGT daily driver so I could keep my Viper clean. Once I got the GT500- I could not see it get wet. The one time it did(barely) I wiped down the whole underside. Then I get the red 07 and I am considering the anniversary package. But then I will have 3 cars I won't drive in the rain. This time of the year it rains almost every day in the afternoons. That's a lot of idle steel. If I just do nothing and drive the 07 rain or shine I may be happier....or I might get really upset. I definitely need some time on the couch.

That 2007 sure is nice, looks brand new! How many miles does it have? I feel your pain, I don't drive mine in the rain either. I would have to agree with you, just do nothing to the 07 drive it rain or shine. So I guess I'll be at the steak and shake with my f250 If it rains.

Thanks Sandro- It is a sweet car. It only has 1870 miles on it so it is like brand new. I just cleaned out my third garage bay today- rented a uhaul and put it all into a storage bay so that the new baby is not sitting in the driveway during the rain and hurricane season. I have a big house but not enough storage and of course no basement ....so I have to pay the hefty storage fees until I can sell off or dump the stuff. I will PM you soon and we can get together with the Shelbys.
