That's actually what i did, don't have the black ones anymore. The black are Ford Racing wheels and can be bought for around a $140 a wheel.

It's ok i guess. Wouldn't have been my first choice. Their suppose to be reminiscent of the scoops on the old ac Cobra's. I liked the shaker on my Mach better, but like this car much better overall.

Excuse the ignorance, but what does a Shelby GT offer over a regular GT?

Shelby GT vs stock GT:
Better suspension, better flowing exhaust(mufflers), upgraded CAI/tune, shifter(I believe-manual only), different front fascia and rear bumper(same as the GT/CS model), different grill, old school hood scoop, hood pins, Shelby badging and limited production.

25 Horsepower and the Shelby name. Its got some interior goodies, some exterior goodies, and some performance goodies. Looks pretty badass if you ask me.

+1!
Worth MSRP, but not a penny more!

FR3 handling pack, drag pack, power pack - all three frpp packages I believe. Also the "bling" that is Shelby licensed - badges, signature, etc.

Yeah...

It's because the Shelby mods lower the MPG of the base Mustang GT.

That car looks awesome. +1 on the hood scoop, tho. But, yes, you made the right choice on the wheels. The black wheels on a black car is just too monocromatic and dull looking.
