  That is exactly what's in my GT350 you will love it. I used Gran Turismo also. They got it to me 3 days earlier than expected. If your driver is Dave he will get it to you sooner than you think. Good luck!

Hi Dave!
I loved the GT/SC, but sold it to pursue a family endeavor. At the time I sold, I knew I would reengage at some point and the thought of the 350 wouldn't let me sleep at night. So, I needed my sleep and therefore, purchased the car. I am as giddy as a child on  Christmas morning!  My wife thinks I need professional help, but I know I'm safe here with my brothers at team Shelby!  What a great feeling!  How's your rocket sled?

I'd be happy to. The easiest thing to do is upload them to photobucket and then you can just add the link to your post. If that fails, email them to me and I'll put them up for you while your out driving. I'm thrilled for you. The car is crazy good!  Enjoy!

Sorry for the delay, but I've been a little busy... driving a SHELBY GT 350!!!!    :yahoo:  

Just like everyone has said...This car is GREAT!!!  It's one of the best feelings in the world watching this car getting backed out of a transport truck and knowing it's yours!  What a privilege.  As I did my walk around inspection, I couldn't help but find myself in awe.  Putting the key in the ignition and giving it a turn made me realize what a great decision this was and how blessed every owner is.  I'm impressed at how easy the transmission is to go through.  As far as power, well...the car only had 50 miles on it, so I knew to take it easy.  BUT...I couldn't help myself and my curiosity spiked so I pushed it a little.  That "little" turned out to be a lot!  What a fantastic car!  The Borlas, angry and defiant,  are ever-present and a constant reminder that this is a GT350 and not a Chevy Volt.  On acceleration, there is an all consuming roar as if releasing a wild animal.  On deceleration, it growls and burbles as if agitated the hunt is over.  The fit and finish of the car will not disappoint.  I had a couple of minor issues such as the coil cover lettering being rubbed through and a corner of the radiator grill fascia adhesive releasing the aluminum trim, but Steve Mansell called me within minutes of my email.  Good people working the issues.  It's all true...no hype...get one if you can.  For those waiting...stay the course!  For those needing transport...Grand Turismo (Eric) can't be beat.

Tony, is it ok if I forward some pics to your email.  I should have some by tomorrow.

The quote on the borlas is the best one yet. Nicely said.

Yes,
Email me you pics and I will post for you. Glad you are enjoying the car. I have 100 miles on mine today, and it's only 1:30.  :shift:

Congratulations on your new GT350.  I also used Grand Turismo to deliver my car.  I totally agree about about your car being backed out of the transport truck.  I can remember the carrier opening the truck and seeing my car inside.   When he started the GT350 it was music to my ears.  I have several pictures of me taking delivery of my car and it was a very special day that I will never forget.  The car was delivered in perfect condition.  SA does a great job of checking everything before shipping.  I want to wish you the very best with you new car and I know you will enjoy every minute of your future driving experiences.
