4289cobra Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Needs some input? If money were not an option if you could buy a 2008 KR never been titled still new from a dealer in Florida or had the opportunity to have a Super Snake what would your choice be? My mother passed away and left each of her kids 75K. I can get the 2008 KR for 65k or have a new Super Snake built for 100K Any suggestions?

Cali_KR Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 The Super Snakes are amazing cars, and I would certainly love to have one in my stable, but.......there is only one KING, and with the history on its side, to have to choose, I'd take the KR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT0128 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 The KR would be my choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should go for around 58K to 60K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firekiller Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 My choice would be the KR for collectability, supersnake for HP. That being said you could always add power to the KR and put it back to stock later. Best of both worlds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FordRocks1 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 If money is truly not a option I say Super Snake, the power in those things are just phenomenal. I like all Shelby vehicles but before you go and buy either one I say drive one or get a ride along and then decide. I have not had a chance to drive a SS yet but ride along yes and the instant power will make you smile for days!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiaCobra Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 KR would be my choice as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPEEDY168 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 The KR is an awesome car, but I would still take the SS. Even though it`s a post title car you can still have it custom made specifically for you and even pick it up at the factory. I would even video tape the delivery. This car would be specific to you, your SS #, your options, your pictures of them handing you the keys.... Those are things that you cant get with the KR unless you do find one untitled. I would name it after my mom. Good luck with whatever you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hydroz Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 KR hands down for me. It one sweet ride dont get me wrong the super snake is one powerful car but the kr is a collectors item Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topgun Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 what's really special about the KR? The name that's it. What's special about the supersnake? hmmmm speed ,power and more power and more power get my drift. Its a no brainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Rodgers Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 I would get a 2012 GT500 with-out Supersnake over a KR, it is a much better car in every way. Adding the Supersnake is not even comparable, it is in another league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

08KR525 Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 If you're set on the '07-'09 body style I would get the KR. I like the fact that they are a limited number, pre-titled Shelby. 65K is too high however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobrafan Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 OK, Think of it this way. You can SuperSnake power and performance the KR with the Shelby moniker, but you can't KR the SuperSnake, period. As long as Shelby is around, they will offer this upgrade. No decision. KR.

gt67 Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 For collectability I would, and did go with a 40th Anniversary which has more cool stuff than a KR and some have the same power as the Super Snake and there are only a couple hundred 40th's built.
