scottish steve Posted January 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Thanks to all that have replied so far. I certainly have enjoyed my car so far. I will post some pics as soon as I get back into town and maybe it stops raining ( I travel alot) . So far my only minor issues with this car are nothing to do with how it drives or handles, just some little things like the "sync" system ( which I will try to hack into to make more usable). Overall I love it. It has taken me a while to get used to driving it. I have had BMW M3, Jag R-types, rx cars but nothing that drives quite like this. My only question right now is that I have heard that the tires are pretty hard rubber and that some people have swapped out to a softer winter tire. This may be advisable here in the North west with our "damp" winters. Any suggestions? Thanks for the info on the MCA meet in Bellevue. Definately attending. Cheers Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skullkraken Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Welcome Scottish Steve, I'll keep an eye out for you as I work in the Bellevue area and I use my GT500 as my current daily driver. If we have another winter like this past year there is no need to worry about your tires. I'm still running the stock Goodyears and didn't have an issue. Just take it easy with your right foot and you'll be fine. With that being said, there were a couple times my tires were still cold after a 15 min. commute down 405. Look forward to seeing you around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VorpalBunny Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Hey Steve, I want to welcome you to Team Shelby. You will find wonderful and knowledgeable people here on the forum. I also wish to invite you to register your new car with the Shelby Registry if you have not yet had the chance. This can be done at: http://registry.teamshelby.com/.

glroy Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 welcome Steve Your a braver man than me mine is stored for the winter. Although the first year I drove it from February on. Mind you you have a sliver one and black is the fastest colour . I do tend to detail the undercarriage so I don't like to have her out in the rain Glen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
