Shelby KR available

[Fubar]

Gentlemen, I know some of you will be interested in the new Shelby KR, to be available soon. I just got word that Stanley Ford in Desoto got an allocation for one and must have their options submitted by Friday (2/29/08). I will not be a player but if you would like to give them a call, ask for Tim Stanley. Expect to pay over sticker.

Ew, really? I guess I will reserve judgement until I see it.

Agreed, for me I think blk on blk is the only way to go

Silver with blue stripes sounds fine to me.

The KR would probably look mean in almost any color...

The Vapor Silver is a very neat and eye-catching color in person.

I though he ordered it because we are in Dallas and it is the Cowboy's colors. You can always sell those guys a car. When I talked to Stanley he said it was because that is the color you see advertised more often... who knew?

Here are a few pics. Notice the engraving on the wheels. Taken from the Toronto Auto show this Feb.

I have been told the color on the KR show car was a Mazda color that was not even used on any Mazda vehicles. FWIW, the Vapor color was the hot ticket on the 08' GT500's because everyone assumed it was the color shown on the KR. Not the case. I personally think the Tungsten that it replaced was a better color. I tried to get a Tungsten 07 but the dealer would not budge. Happy with the White/blue scheme I got.

Now why didn't they detail the fenderwell behind the wheel? That looks awful.

 

[KJRGT]

Agreed Motivater, but I also think the brake caliper presentation for a show car, even if a production model, is very weak.

ditto that! not much attention to detail for a show car.
