Yuck. Those were 2 1/2 years you could (should) have been enjoying your car. If the CSX serial number is high on your requirements list I guess that is part of the game. I could never see myself putting a deposit down for an expensive item from an organization having a history of delivery problems. Even if you get your car (as you did), I would be sweating every minute wondering if my money was wasted. That is one of the reasons I purchased a used Superformance. I knew what I was getting. I could get it the same day I issued the check.

I would have no problems buying new from any of the established manufacturers. Superformance, ERA, Factory Five, Backdraft, etc. All excellent reputations. Not a hint of delivery problems. But there is something about dealing with Shelby stuff that gives me pause.

And with this particular issue/lawsuit - who know what the facts are? I do not care.
