The first thing I look for in an ad like this is the manufacturer. When I saw Maker: Shelby American, what else could I assume? We shouldn't have to search for the truth in an ad. My vision must be getting pretty poor, because I didn't even notice the "replica" caveat, but then again, I was searching for the actual name of the manufacturer.

Shelby doesn't like people with replicas referring to them as "Shelbys" and I don't blame him. It devalues the original cars by making the origin of every car ambiguous except to the experienced.
