    Had the 2009 Shelby GT500 a week now and love it! Has 1000 miles on it!
    Traded in my 05 Mustang, loved that too... but... it's not a Shelby!
    I'm in Anaheim CA,... I'm an illustrator at an electronics manufacturer.
    Glad to find this site!

    The window sticker said Lemans top stripe and GT500 side rocker stripes. Shelby Blue for $595. I can't find any evidence that they were there.
    Personally I like it better w/o stripes. The car had my name on it!::D

    Yeah, I stumbled on to that false bottom the first day I got my car. Then it took me over a month to find out what that blue button on the key fob did,,,duh. Did you get your certificate with build numbers yet? If not call Ford Performance at 18003673788.

    I downloaded the window sticker yesterday and also ordered the certificate!
    Just called my sales guy and he looked up the Key cut code, which I didn't have. So far things are going very well!:thumbup:

    That was Dale Earnhardt's car number. Probably in honor of Dale.
