So sorry to hear that tough times have caused you to sell. Keep your chin up and if you can go to the bash....do go. You do not need a Shelby to attend. The event is more about the people.

 

ditto - it's bad enough to lose a car but, never let them take away your enthusiasm or desire to get another .

Sorry to see this and it must be really tough. Sounds to me though that you'll be back soon, plus as Grabber said its more about the people; family and friends.

I am sorry to hear this, but I truly hope as time passes so will your problems and that one day you will enjoy sitting behind the wheel of another shelby. Hang in there and keep fighting.

A few years ago when we were in a previous drought we had to sell our boat to make land payments. Selling the boat wasn't the issue=it was the fact that we had to so I know what you mean. My hope for you is that the new year brings better times.

Things do happen for a reason, and they will work out for the better. See ya at the next go around.

I know how you fill......................... I am having to sell a LOT of stuff that I really want to keep, to pay Bills each Month. On top of all that, I am also needing to raise the needed Funds for buying a Townhouse. Good luck.

It is sad that you've had to resort to selling your Shelby. You obviously have your priority's correct. Always remember better days are ahead. There was a time in my life that I also had to make some difficult financial decisions. I believe there will come a time where you will come back out on top. Things do happen for a reason, I would still go to the event as others said its about friends and family.

Sounds like you we're able to get rid of a car payment and pay cash for a used Vette and have 10k left over for other needs by selling your Shelby.

 

My 2 cents - save up cash to buy your next Shelby so you will not be put in this situation again.

:spend: I guess based on your original message I made the foolish assumption that you fell on hard times and had to sell your car for survival. I’m not asking but I HOPE you have a plan if things don’t go right. To me thinking of only having $10,000 to survive puts a sick feeling in my stomach.

Sorry, but to me, that comment falls into the Nosey Rosie category. I never liked Noey Rosies and passive agressive people. Granted the OP opened the discussion but give him a break.
