    Fellas:

    Let's pretend someone offered you $240k+ for your Shelby and you had to take the money and buy a modern performance car.

    What would you guys buy?

    I am not selling anything but was just thinking what people on this forum would do.

    Mike

    Just thought of the same thing myself after seeing the Ford GT at the SAAC-MCR show. Gulf colours. Would buy that car, if not that then a new Shelby with some descent rims.

    I am a Ford/Shelby guy no question, but the most incredible car I have seen is a Charcole F430 Ferrari spider with polished alloys. I think that is the most beautiful car in the world! Second would be the Ford GT

    I would go with a Ford GT...Blue or black, no stripes. But I also like the Aston Martin V12 Vanquish and Ferrari F430.
