Hello Gentlemen. I'm posting from Paris, France. Great site and many fun posts (and one or two weird ones too). I recently purchased a 2014 GT 500 Convertable. Here is a link to some pictures

I will not take delivery until the end of June when i get back to the states. I'm in Paris, France every other month and on my farm in TN in the months between. 5 years like that, I know it's crazy. But as you might imagine I have the Shelby on my mind. Today I was around town with my wife and there were many Maseratis, Ferraris and Porsches everywhere. I was pointing them out with estimates of their pricing. None of them less the 120,000.00, all of them overpriced (as is everything in Europe). In 5 years I have not seen a single Shelby (a Corvette once and awhile). These euro suprcars are so refined it makes me choke. You might say the Shelby would not work here but I don't believe so. People cruise around on the weekend exactly how they do back home in Tennessee. I wish there was some way I could get my Shelby here to France. Does anybody here know whats involved in getting the car to Europe? It would be really fun to wake up the French with some true American muscle!
By the way I paid 46,500 for the car with 10,000 miles and a brand new set of factory spec tires. I'm curious if I overpaid? I have a feeling i did. Any feedback on pricing would be appriciated.
Thanks in advance
