To pile on a litte to Ron's posts, I would love to own a "real" Shelby, but I am very content with my piecer....So what I have to say is not because I am envious of you or any other who owns one.

You are either purposely trying to stir the nest, or you are simply not capable of understanding how to relate to others. Even your online name is meant to push people's buttons. It's as if every thread you get involved with you a find a way to separate your choice from the rest, but not in a way that is respectful of others. I look back at the way you entered this thread, and it wasn't to share the good qualities of a Shelby, it was simply to state that Shelby shouldn't be in the list because it's not a replica. Fact? Sure. Did it need to be said? No. We can argue the meanings of simple words all day, but just as when someone asks if it is real that you can be assured they are asking is it an original, the question was simply to ask comparisons of all the manufacturers. You knew that. You chose to jump in and act like a flippin snob, and then people jumped on your ass and you try to act as if people are out to get you. C'mon, think. Your posts are inteligent, yet lack social graces. The best communicators are those who can blend both, and in the end, they tend to be the folks who have stronger friendships. It's the same as a guy out here in the NW who puts a sign next to his SPF and says "This is NOT a kit". It pisses people off big time. Truthful, yes. It's not a kit. But that person is trying to trick people into believing the car is somehow original....And that is just how you come off in nearly every thread you post in related to this subject. Look in the mirror man.

By the way, I mean no offense, but I felt it was time to say something, as this sort of thing just needs to stop....
