Agreed. Many Shelbys come dressed in the 'blue uniform' of or near Guardsman. I think that's done to preserve resale which I think seems very important to Shelby owners.
In this case, I think black cherry may be beautiful unto itself but it does not enhance this car's character.
My ERA is 'blue'-but unlike any other, a custom mix. Not so much that I wanted to personalize it as I just got it to what I felt Cobras should look like. Though it's gone, I still get messages asking what color it is.
But if it were a CSX or K-car I'd have done the same thing.
That's just me.
