I got my cobra from XKs unlimited in San Luis Obispo who never could tell me anything during the two years it took to build me car (luckily Gary P could), charged me more for shipping / delivery than was originally calculated, did not inspect the car before delivery (as shown by the disconnected fuel fill hose that I found the first day I had the car plus other things like telling me about parts that had been known to fail in the front suspension and had been upgraded in later cars but did tell me that mine had them which was discovered and replaced when I took the car back to Vegas for the frame work / rebuild) and did not include or install parts that were originally promised (with NO disclaimers regarding "specifications may change" until after the car was delivered). I have heard worse stories but those are mainly from people who had their dealer finish / build their car for them. They were the largest volume dealer for Shelby when I got my car. Needless to say they do NOT get my reccomendation.
