I bought my '08 (Black Clearcoat with Alloy Stripes with 18 miles) on 5-31-08 and was pushed into a guard rail 2-20-09 by a red Dodge 1500 Ram who never stopped and has not been caught - yet. I bought my '09 (Vapor Clearcoat Metallic with Ebony stripes) the same day. I had just ordered the Evolution Performance stage 3, a dual high pass capacity heat exchanger, and a pulley puller installer tool. Had to call Evolution to change the year model to 2009 for the Custom Tuned SCT X3. Anyway...........

 

I had a total of 2975 miles on the '08 averaging 342 miles per month. The car was broke in perfectly with no problems. I think it only wheel hopped twice and that was my fault for improper take off. It had a little clutch chatter for the first 200 miles and I believe good technique smoothed it out to run perfectly. It was strong and beautiful! (no I am not shedding a tear) I was ready to start upgrading when this crime occured.

 

I will take my time and break the '09 in as good as I can and put the stage 3 parts on. It has 290 miles on it now and is very strong and the clutch feels wonderful - I think it has the newest clutch on it you can get - hopefully no problems. Even my fiancee says the clutch feels better. I could make a long story longer but I think that is enough. This is going to be one bad Shelby! I can feel it!

 

Those are my miles!

Just got mine last month 4/4 from MM. Drove her home ~700 miles and now I have 1300 miles on it. Clutch shuddered for about 500 miles now its smooth as silk. Weather is getting better now so I hope to rack up some more miles soon.

 

Update: 10/26/09 4000 miles and no problems with the clutch yet. Probably get lots of garage time now that winter is almost here. Its been a fun summer thats for sure!

Please help out. This is for a special project.

 

Thanks,

I got my GT500 Convertible on 23rd May 2009 (almost a month now) and have over 1,200 miles on her. I love the fact that I get to drive her all the time, and even miss driving her on those larger family outings when I am required to use my '07 Expedition EL Limited. Nothing puts that stupid grin on my face more then when I'm behind the wheel of my Shelby. Go FORD!

100 km = about 60 miles.

 

6 months of snow since I picked up the car Sept/06.

 

 

 

Whoa..I know its tough, but a hanging ladder next to my 500? More probability of damage than a parking lot. Also, back that @$$ up. I like to at least have a few beers and stare at mine for a few hrs before going inside to make love to my "shelby". But then again, the rear looks awesome too. Life is too good. Enjoy
