Indeed, being well informed is one thing, posting the same cut and paste all over the web is another. Wouldn't you agree.

For you information I also posted the following all over the web .
At the time of my original post, the only information available was a public press release put out by Becker. Subsequently, Shelby American has posted their position ,not on this site, but in other public forums, which was the proper and correct thing for them to do.I also believe they presented their position very well. Since that time there has also been additional information provided the public which is as follows:
Shelby Sued - Autoweek
Becker Automotive Sues Shelby Automobiles | National Speed Sport News
And for the lawyers out there:
http://www.autonews.com/assets/PDF/CA83053928.PDF
You are correct that before an informed decision can be made not only do you have to have all of the facts and all the pertinent information but in this case we will all have to wait for the ultimate decision of the courts. Best, George

It is probably appropriate at this time to point out the following:
Although it is permitted to post news, such as it has been here, on Club Cobra, we do not permit discussion of the details or anyone's personal involvement in any ongoing litigation.
You may talk around it, but if the discussion migrates to becoming evidentiary to the case, the thread will be closed and archived.
Thanks

Yeah, we've noticed that you have blasted this all over. So precisely what horse do you have in this race?
I bought and sold a Shelby CSX. I bought it because I loved it and sold it because my wife hated it.
But you seem to have a burr under your saddle. Come clean.
Right now you're heading to the top of people I truly hope I never meet. Don't worry, we'll never be friends.

In paragraph 26 of the lawsuit it says...
"Relying on Defendant SAI’s promise of a 2011 delivery, Plaintiff pre-sold all five Anniversary Cars to buyers, repeating to them the promise that the Anniversary Cars would be available by Dec. 11, 2011.."
It goes on to say that four of these cars are not yet delivered. They were sold to customers.
So, are there well meaning customers who have put up $ for a car who have not gotten them?
Who knows what all the facts are. My main concern is for any folks who have put up money for a car and have no car or their money. Anybody know who these customers are (if there are any people in this boat)?

You're welcome, but there is a lot of really good info on "Cars" here. For the others, he is running into some of the issues a lot of us have gone through, and he and everyone else calls it "sorting it out". It's frustrating to think you have to do that, and honestly, I think dealer support in this area generally sucks unless you find, as it takes a little bit of research, to find the few who really know this business. And honestly, a lot of it depends, even when you go to a dealer or shop, of who the person (down to the name, DNA) of who does the work. I don't want to get into the names but there really are some really good folks here who know how to put one of these together. Do your research, take names, and they will bubble to the top. I wish I'd had the option of finding one or two of them but alas, mine was "done" (but not finished )
I wish George the best, and think he will get his finished and love it!!!
I miss mine
