nice profit! shady but it's the Shelby way.

$180K Kirkham alum roller
$50K drivetrain
$20K Shelby badges & VIN

$250K into personal bank accounts
Nothing shady about it. It's called capitalism. The dealer likely doesn't make a huge buck. And SAI is a publicly traded corporation, any profits go to the company's shareholders. I don't see the stock rising above $0.16 or whatever someone quoted recently.

And yes, brand names, whether pharma drugs, watches, or even PET FOOD, will always bring a premium. Wow, breaking news.
