A Chance Encounter with a 2013 Shelby GT500

Was hanging out at a local cruise-in and out of the blue an awesome 2013 Shelby GT500 wheeled in to say hello. I came VERY close to owning one of these cars, but went with the ZL1 instead. I'd love to have one of these in my garage too! It was great to meet you and your wife, Eric. Come back and join us every Thursday.

We took the opportunity to take a few pics...

Thanks Paul, it was really nice to meet you and the crew! here are a couple more pictures that I got!

Let me also introduce my self to the rest of the thread viewers. My name is Eric. I have been hanging around for a while now and finally got my car. Its a Sterling Gray metallic with a few added options (nav,recaros,svt) tinted the windows and put LED fogs in. Enjoy the pictures!! And again, it was awesome meeting you guys again.






















And just a couple of my personal photos of my car for reference

I havent particularly liked the looks of Camaros since '92, but having seen one yellow zl1 heading opposite, and seeing Some photos the look of the zl1 (only) is starting to look better.

I haven't seen one yet in my GT500

You know, I've always respected the Shelby. If I could have gotten a 13 in some of the screaming colors they have (that green rocks) I would have considered it. But for some reason they seem to limit the colors on the Shelby.

As for the one pictured above: Truly a sick car!

and to the owner; Welcome to C5!
