Wow!!! and no thanks!!!! Rather buy a Z06 over that car........I still believe KR owners that claim they pay reasonable insurance rates that the insurance company has no idea..........until something happens then it will be lots of 'no.....we're not paying you for those ridiculous part prices"

Its tough enough already to sell something like that but then to mess around and let a situation linger this is a
pr nightmare good luck drawing in more customers.

I've watched this one and a few other issues that KR owners and SS owners have had with getting simple stuff taken care of. Seeing how poorly SAI has responded to this, there is NO way I would ever do business with them.

If you really think about it, the only problem is with the hood. The carbon fiber splitter can be purchased elsewhere for a lot less money.

I have had nothing but great experiences with SAI...I haven't had a lot of issues, but the few I did have, they jumped all over.

x11 That is exactly my thoughts when I bought my 2010. Also the 2010 is made at the SVT plant in Flat Rock Michigan and not at Shelby's facility in Las Vegas. And because of this (and I might get flamed for this) I sorta see my car more as a Cobra than a Shelby since SVT did build it. And this might be just a internet rumor, but I remember reading Shelby had a 5 year contract and the 2011 is the last year. 2012 should be a 100% Cobra once again. And everyones seen it might have that twin turbo coyote engine, again rumor, but who knows. Time will tell.
