TheCarSource.com Shelby Mustang List ------------------------------------ Thanks for the info Dan,I am in Vegas for a furniture Market and rented a Shelby H after ready your email and realizing they had them at the airport. DUH. The car is nice. It was funny, the guy at the airport Hertz said he had to give me a 10 minute instruction on the use of the car. It wasn't so much instruction as much as it was what they expected on the car when it came back like decals, hoods, engines etc. Under the hood they have all the bolts safty yellow painted on the threads so to try and tell if you tampered and a security wire crimped from the shock tower to the engine to indicate if you tried to take the engine out. It was a scream. Runs pretty good too.The valet at Harrahs eyes lighted up when I pulled in.I will find out tomorrow if it is Ferris Buellers day off all over again. Bob G.

I balked at the expense but he said he'd pay for the whole thing. When we got to the pickup counter, they told us that the weekly rental rate was 1200 Euros but that it only included 1000 km; there was a per-km charge after that. To make a long story short, when we turned it back in one week later, he got handed a bill for 2940 Euros or something like that--or in human terms, on the order of $4000!!!!! Yes he can afford it, but it was an expensive lesson! On the flip side, it got outstanding fuel economy, even on the Nurburgring....

TheCarSource.com Shelby Mustang List ------------------------------------ There were a couple of GT-Hs at the Bellevue, WA Mustang Roundup show on 7/16. The guy who rented one said Hertz had messed up and given him unlimited miles for 3 days. Other than stopping at the show he was driving the crap out of the car, almost non-stop he said.
