Default Finished my Shelby GT500.... finally.

I posted a few months ago about trading in my prius on this 2012 Shelby GT500. I'll just say I didn't leave it stock.....

Beautiful car, man. Love the mods - subtle and still aggressive!

New meaning of "pulse and glide" now!

A+ on pman6's response. So true!

this is awesome. They should write an article about you . A dude who goes from a Prius to a 725 HP Shelby mustang. Its like you said F the green thing. I want to burn some gas and have a great time. I can only imagine how hard that thing pulls at WOT. Congrats again buddy. Be safe in that beast

Looks very clean and not tacky at all...unlike most mustangs.

Mods list?

Beautiful. I love that you kept it clean looking, instead of going for flash.

Congrats again(posted on previous thread)! I love the subtle mods of the exterior, and focused on what's more important, which is the inside(hp/tq).
