Don't get me wrong. I love the car, the heritage and the the quality...and everything they are trying to accomplish. Just seems to me like they went the wrong way. Just my 2 cents... |
[quote=Bernica;1349539]Nope. I suspect the majority of them will be on container ships to places unknown!

I'm still trying to figure out how anyone can build seriously expensive replicas of circa 40+ cars that never existed? That takes smoke and a lot of mirrors.
One day Ferrari will catch on and build replicas of the other 34 1964 GTOs that they didn't get around to building as nobody bothered to order them. But had they had the orders - they would have made them. So best make 'em now, it's never too late (obviously). Around $20million a pop should do the trick...... |

$20 Million a pop? That would be a "bargain." Shelby is about survival at this point. They've got to figure out something to do with a 50-year old car, so they try to keep creating buzz and excitement, by exploiting their brand and customers. Let's see there's the Terlingua Edition, Bill Elliott Edition, 40th and 50th Anniversary Editions, FAM Edition, Completion Series Edition, Competiton Series Edition, and next year it's the Gumball Rally Edition. |
For a cool 1/2 million bucks you get a car that CAN NOT EVER be legally licensed and/or driven on any public road IN ALL 50 STATES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dats expensive art!!!!!!:LOL::LOL: david |

It turns out that is likely not true. It is true 100% in CA . The MSO contains no restrictions. When I asked about it it was more of a free form discussion than an answer, but the best summary I can give is that CA was an absolute NO but there was no claim of an absolute YES in other places. So to follow the progressions, other jurisdictions may not have the restriction that CA places on the power train/vehicle assembly. Others besides CA do as well. However, said vehicle will also likely never be licensable in those places that do place restrictions. That was as far as I went since I could sense it was sensitive topic. I'll wager with pretty high odds that vehicles will find their way on the streets in some places. I can pretty much guess at places I wouldn't even try and I can also guess a few places where you might have a shot. But if you want a guarantee, buy a muffler. |
I don't mean to throw us off course but how are real comp cars registered in CA?
|
I would look to the likes of Lynn Park for that answer, if there is one.

Of course, we're just speculating. The press release states they cannot be registered for street use. Let's see what happens. I'm sure the authorities will be watching closely. |

You betcha places are watching. I'll guarantee you CA will have a BLACKLIST. |
