Is this wrong?
 
So the other day it is snowing out, salty roads, yadda, yadda... I look over and there is a brand new Shelby GT500 plowing thru the snow. Now I know if I had the GT500 from Gone in 60 seconds out in that weather, someone would shoot me for being so stupid. Does the same rule apply to the new GT500?

I say Yea :2guns:

Snowing and salty roads? I am surprised they could keep it on the road.

What a retard. They're probably filthy rich and don't really care.

Either that, or it's some younger person that doesn't have an alternative set of wheels :P

Seems fine to me, it's just a car. I would have done the same.

RWD+450hp+Snow/Ice = Death :lol:

With 8150 coupes and 2694 convetibels being produced it doesn't strike me as a collectors item. Might as well loose a bunch to make the remaining worth more. LOL

Seems stupid to me. But then again....it is a ford, so meh. I dunno.

On the other hand, if it were something like a 67 GT500...well then...then I'd have to find them....and they'd just die.

Funny... I saw a Stage3 Roush today and the guy was driving like a grandpa! :(

If I had something like that, it would not leave the garage unless it was nice and sunny outside. I wouldn't even drive it in the rain if I could help it. It just bothers me that someone would drive one of those in the snow/ice...

I was just thinking abiout the whole "Winter Beater" concept. Maybe it's because I'm poor, but I can't understand spending that much on a really cool car, and then not driving it. If I'm paying for it, I'm gonna by God use it!!

Granted, if I had an alternative, I might leave it at home in weather when someone might hit me, but I'd be driving that puppy as much as humanly possible.

this is an odd year, so far I have seen TWO! Porche's, One Vette(C6 Z06), and on FERRARI :!: :shock:

and this year is pushing toward the all time record for snowfall! :roll:
