Ok, that may be a bit dramatic, but another Shelby gram arrived today--a Heritage with 400+ miles. I have to say but for the 3 GTs I have bought from Elite, all cars I have had delivered have been new from the factory . None have looked any better than this one.

Frankly, I was never wild about the whole Gulf thing until my wife and I saw a Heritage in person. IMO, it is a car that looks far different in person than in pictures.

As always I cannot say enough about Shelby/Elite. I have an awful schedule with a ton of travel and time away from home. I had about a 24 hour window between the kids' Spring Break and business travel and sure enough Shelby managed to get it here with time to spare.

I buy cars from a bunch of good dealers but I have to say NO ONE is more responsive than Shelby. I literally cannot recall a single time in the last year calling him when he didn't personally answer the phone--day or night. He almost immediately answers emails no matter the question or issue. I have had so many dealers hide behind voicemail/email--not so with Elite.

Anyway, I have already put 75 miles on this formally low mile Heritage--I ain't the type to save it for the next guy. Thanks to all here who helped with questions. Being on a LOT of car forums over the years I can truthfully say this is the best run and most helpful of all I have been involved with. Thanks:cheers

Beautiful car. My experience with Shelby and Elite Autos was top-notch as well. The difference is, I have not yet convinced my wife that we really need a second GT or GTX1. :-)
 
She's a beauty alright. Orange 6 spoke rims and a bumper delete are a must. Congrats....

I fully understand. We suck at basketball and somehow managed to beat the Pack. I am a big Russell Wilson fan---family friend.
