Research :yellowcard3:.

Nice, except the SR-71s did not have any silver (bare titanium) on them, the A-12s did.

If you want to get extremely picky, the official color of the SR-71 is actually blue, & yes, it does look black as night in person.

THE Venerable name of SR-71, a true aviation legend, should not be running around on a car. JMO

So FORD get a :yellowcard3: (there just along for the ride here), Little JACK, Carroll and The Experimental Aircraft Association get three :redcard3::redcard3::redcard3: for sullying the Aircraft's name.

This car is dangerously close to stepping into my lane. The bad *** flat black Mustang is my terroritory.

No shiny shiite on my car either. If they wanted to do it right, they should have called me for styling help.

[Shelbyfestguy]

Aaahhhh if I only had money to bid.

Sounds to me like a Roush-developed ride with licensed Shelby kool-aid 'provenance.' Not bad looking tho and there's a tradition of themed Mustangs for Oshkosh. The Darkside legal team will be forthcoming! :biggrin:

Remember the 2008 Oshkosh one-off: the AV8R (http://www.autoblog.com/2008/08/05/fords-av8r-mustang-nets-500k-for-charity/) ...lots of great theme detailsin that one and very classy (even tho a 400bHP SC'd GT is now so ...2008 -lol).

[The Bone]

That car is just silly

:wow2:

I know the dough went to CHARITY but anyone that would pay that much $$$ for that car, needs to be slapped and put on meds.
There would need to be a real collective effort to knock some sense into him. JMO

lol - true ...unfortunately, that article doesn't show the interior -- the AV8R was a virtually hand-made one-off built-for-Ford design piece with many one-of-a-kind details whereas this Roush/Shelby example seems much more just a Roush with some paint and dress pieces ...and a license agreement.

However, I certainly agree with you from a cost-performance point of view ...a $.5M was absurd aside from it going to charity.

Maybe the buyer of this one will sign the check with the new $20K Mt.Blanc DNA-encoded-ink pen ...just 'cause he can -lol.

I find the Whipple charged 5.0 interesting.

Other than that, I like my stuff shiney.
