Sold a 2007 Z06 for this one...it is a much easier car to live with and I love driving it! Steering is light and the supercharger builds in a very predictable manner based on throttle. (Don't push the go pedal too hard or you can get sketchy quick!) A plus is the navi package in the car; the SYNC system rocks.

Bought a 2011 Shelby in Grabber Blue (w/o stripes) last weekend. Fabulous ride, can't wait for PCM to close the blow-off valve (break-in procedure set by the PCM) and let the supercharger boost the performance.

Got my Kona Blue 11 GT500 about 3 weeks ago and I'm still breaking it in but having fun doing it.

LOOKS HOT!!!

Add on Baer Eradispeed two-piece rotors to the front, & upgrade to Baer Eradispeed's 14-inch rotors on the rear.

YOUR CAR WOULD BE PERFECT!!!! When upgrading to Shelby Alcoa's the Rotors really become visible.

As far as driving impressions...leaps ahead of it's 2009 counterpart. Better handling, better wheels, marginally better tires, and more responsive performance (IMO). Overall I'm happy with the purchase.

Okay, I need some help in picking one, they are all amazing!

1) Sterling Gray Metallic - Convertible - Red Stripes

2) Black - Convertible - Red Stripes

3) White - Convertible - Red Stripes

4) White - Coupe - Red Stripes

5) Race Red - Coupe - White Stripes

6) Black - Coupe - ( No Stripes ) plain

7) Black - Convertible - ( No Stripes ) plain


So ya, 7 to choose from at my local dealership :banana: they have a hard on with the red stripes LOL.

I wish they had the grabber blue (light) with white stripes :cryying:
Not sure if they can get one from another dealer if they find one.

But I am looking towards the all Black one ( Coupe ) and maybe adding blue stripes ?
Looks good and bad ass in my opinion, anyone have ?
Example this picture.

Either the black /red Vert or the Red / white coupe...but I'm a top down guy so your choice. I'd never been a huge fan of red but with the white stripes and comp gray rims on my red vert, I had to have it.
