Definitely the "supercharger hasn't kicked in yet" line

I think my favorite part of the auction is the "Perfect Christmas gift!!!".

"Hey Bob, you gonna buy a new Shelby Stang?" "Sure am frank, AND I figured I'll buy a few for the kids!"

I am staring at a black one right now we have had two at the dealership here 1 red with white stripes and one black on black. 500hp goes all right i just say that. Not the fastst vehicle ive ever driven but its quick.

They are going rediculously high. There is an article in Hemmings Muscle Machines comparing the '68 GT-500 to the new GT500 and the owner of the new one said he paid $20K over sticker for his.

I didn't see the belt either until I looked really close. It can be so thin because it'* really wide. You don't need as much thickness when the width is like that belt is. I may be crazy, but I would have swore I saw one for sale locally for $10,000 less than that one on Ebay?

I looked them up on Autotrader and found three from $60K to $70K. And the only ones on ebay under $50K were just listed.
