Shelby American announces 50th Anniversary edition of 427 Cobra

Since dealers purchase and not the consumers I would expect the usual suspects to buy them out. Remember it took something like two years from announcement to final delivery of the other 50th anniversary cars so inventory at any one time is very small. A few will be end user preorders, but most will be spec buys.

SAI announced to the dealers that the general public can now by-pass the dealer network and buy direct from SAI Las Vegas

That makes sense since customers deal directly with SAI when having a Mustang modified. I'm sure some will disagree with me but I don't know what value-added a dealer brings to the table.

Not really relevant. The Mustang modification is post title. All Cobra activities are pre-title, and Shelby, as the manufacturer, now has a retail outlet.
