Now wait just a second. Let's compare apples to apples. I'm betting yours (like many) is not painted (I've never seen it). Take your bare naked lady and get it painted. When I inquired about a full paint job to get my packer car repainted it was about 20K.
And I got equivalent parts service from Shelby.
I can't say the same for Roush though but that story is documented elsewhere.
