My Neighbor's ZL1 Order...
turned into a 2012 Shelby GT500. WOW! What a sweet car. The car is equipped with the SVT Package, Navigation and Ricaro Seats. He tossed me the keys and said go ahead take it for a ride...which I declined due to time. The car is loaded. Employee pricing plus extra money from Ford. Out the door for about $7K less than I will be spending. He wanted a ZL1 but couldn't get employee price so went with the Shelby. I was amazed at how easy that car is to get in an out of (compared to Camaro).
I'm sticking with my ZL1 order but MAN that is a very nice car... |

That's a bad ass loooooking car, if i could buy one for 7 g's less than a zl1 that would save me 12 g's with the dealer markup. I would do that in a heart beat...........NOTTTTT ever, hahaha ZL1 or nun..

Graphite gray I think. Or Sterling, which returns this year.

I'm taking the week of as well. Had an amazing time last year. Plus Ford let us run the proving grounds and play with a bunch of their cars and take to the track with their pro drivers. Can't wait!

color is sterling gray. my non gay life partner is looking at a GT in that color. If he were taller I would make him get a boss as I just think the boss is the way to go. I have been trying to convice him to build a half story house and get a reality show with mini me and then he could afford the shelby. Sucks being short and then having to pay for a normal ceiling height house.

No doubt. Nice color combination, if I were a Blue Oval guy I would be hot for that..., the Easter Egg Ford colors on Mustang's I see the chick's all around town driving do not hold a candle to color scheme.
