You can spec "no paint" for your alloy Shelby. However, Shelby will paint your car, but Kirkham will not.

Patrick...morons? Really? All that therapy gone down the drain. The Shelby name does add value for some, nay, many, but not everyone. This is definitely old territory.

For me the added attraction WAS the billet aluminum pieces, gauges that actually work, battery in trunk, etc. The R&D was one of MY reasons for buying a Kirkham. I'm hoping that some of that new R&D on the $1MM Larry Ellison Cobra will trickle down to the older and obviously new Kirkhams.

Appreciation was not a purchase decision point for me when deciding which Cobra to buy. There are other reasons, but why bore everyone to death.

Chocolate, strawberry and vanilla. Everyone likes a different flavor.
