This one has good paint.[;)] Even has a U.A.W. sticker in the window[:D][:D] Wife is finally happy with her new car. Has a lower rocker black stripe that is being replaced with a white one.

    I think that I can honestly say that he black stripe adds virtually nothing to the car's appearance:

    Aside the stripe and the other one was stripe delete. Dealer is going to remove the black one and install a white one when it comes in. But this one has good paint..[:o)]

    That is much more pleasant when heartfelt.

    Gas lid pushes in to open.. There is NO gas cap . They do make a lock one but it has two tabs the gas pump pushes out of the way when filling. I am putting a real gas cap on it.

    Very nice, that is about as close as you can get to having a American made car, Actually made in America with 65% American made parts by an American made company

    How does it not have a gascap? That is part of emissions around here. Mine pushes in on one side to open, locks when the car doors lock.

    I see a small little imperfection in the lower......Just kidding. That is a really sharp looking car. My son always wanted one, but one with the white stripe down it and a spoiler in the back. I think it was the GT 500. I like your better. I would love to have an original Shelby with a 429 in it though. Now that was a car. Have you ever met Carrol Shelby? I heard he was a great guy. I seen him a few times on the Barret-Jackson auctions before he passed away. Love to have his money too[:D]

    Have a Taurus that also has no cap for the fuel filler. Says so right inside the door.

    When we traded in my wife's Crown Victoria last November we were looking to stay with a V8 and rear wheel drive, so looked at Mustangs but just not enough car for us. So we went all-wheel drive in a Taurus. I don't understand how a V6 balances, but it does drive nicely. I passed the muscle car stage back when we had muscle cars about 40 years ago.

    You're gonna lose 10hp by replacing that black strip with a white one.

    Good looking car. I think the stripe would look great in silver rather than white, would accent the other chrome/silver on the car where white would be the only white on it. Just my opinion.
