    Hey guys,

    My car goes to paint next week and I still have the option to choose what color I want.

    There will be a total of 75 Supersnakes made by Unique Performance, 7 will be convertible. I had originally chosen the traditional white and blue shelby colors. However, I now know there will be one other blue and white supersnake convert completed ahead or about the same time as mine.

    I thought having a 1 of 1 that goes in the registry would be neat. No one has ordered a yellow and black Supersnake convert yet and there is a good chance if I went that route it would be the only one.

    I know it's a personal choice but also long term having a unique car is cool and has it's benefits should I sell down the line.

    In the link below are some pictures of the white and blue Snake ahead of mine, pics of my car ready for paint, and a picture of a yellow and black GT500SR Unique built.

    Also, here are the other color options they have:

    Any thoughts?

    I don't really care for Yellow w/Black stripe scheme. I don't think it looks quite right on the old body styles. My choices would be

    1. Blue w/White Stripe
    2. Red w/White Stripe
    3. White w/Red Stripe
    4. Black w/Silver Stripe

    +1 for the Yellow/Black,
    I purchased a yellow 95 Mustang GT convertible many years ago. This was the first yellow car I had ever purchased. My reasoning was swayed by the overwhelming number of auto magazine covers that highlighted the very photogenic color. Not, that your car will need the extra attention, but it is almost impossible to miss. The insurance companies should give a discount to cars that wear the bright covering. There is a big difference between shades of yellow and I personally do not care for the lighter more mellow yellow. UPs' color is right on.
    The White / Blue is a traditional Shelby color and I can understand why that was your first choice. Either way you chose I hope you enjoy your car................Soon!
