Eitherway im sure the salesman was pissed

He must of thought he already had you in the bag.
Oh yea I had him shred it before I left. But in s strange twist my heater stopped working this morning. I left it in the cool setting last night and went to turn the heat on and nothing. None of the settings would change. I cold air. So had to drive to work with no heat.I could hear a clicking noise behind the dash like the blend vent was stuck. Shut the car off when I got to work andb let the car sit while I did PT. Got back in just now and the heater and settings work again. I think she was trying to teach me a lesson.

Everyone has temporary neuro misfirings that cause extreme and illogical thinking from time to time. Good thing you were able to regain your mental capacities!

How can you compare a Shelby GT to a base Camaro? Maybe a Shelby GT to a ZL1 or even a SS not a base Camaro.

Fair.

But I think that's partially because, historically....none but the upper levels were really worth buying, and in the past 15-20 years to about 5 years ago, demand all but died. I think those two aspects have changed dramatically.

5 years from now he like a lot of people here will be drooling over the 6th gen Camaro which will probably be faster (or at least close to) and more refined then the old GT500. The only Shelby's worth anything were built decades ago. The ones built now are nice cars but I don't see them selling in the six figures in 40 years.

There is no mustang from the 05-09 generation i personally would want except maybe the GT500. I wouldn't be able to get past that cheap interior.

She has given you the cold shoulder. Buy her some new shoes and maybe she will come around again.
