The morale of the story is even though you have an even chance of a bad experience , take your wife to a car event.

I took mine to Rally 5 and as we walked through the garage I hear, "that one is really pretty". I turn back to make sure I am still with my wife and see her pointing at a Heritage. The last car she found "pretty was a white Mamba Edition Viper back in 05 I bought on the spot---I pounce on any window of opportunity.

Long story short, I am buying Shelby's Heritage pictured below. Thanks to those providing opinions which turned out as I'd though they would be--folks are passionate about different colors for different reasons. Tim C., a man of many colors, was especially helpful.

3 GTs in less than a year from Shelby (though one--is going back on trade) I remain close to the top of the sucker list.

Nice work. I love the part about 'pouncing on any window of opportunity" when your wife likes a car. I am the same way. Enjoy !

Which one is going back ? white w/ blue or blue with white? See my signature for my thoughts.

It was really tough, but in the end I am keeping the white. I lusted after the blue and still think it is one of the best colors, but the white was my first GT and I had a white /blue commemorative edition Viper that I liked so it won out. It also won the family vote in a close race. I will miss the blue dearly.

Congratz! I certainly had lust in my heart for that one, too!

Congrats! Great car and it has the right number on it for the next Rally. Also, You'll have to help the rest of us learn how to make it feel as if "it was the Mrs' idea." That always works well.
