Hello to all,
I live in the Chicago Burbs and just found this site.
I enjoy cars of all types but really have a passion for the Shelby's.
I currently have a 2007 Shelby GT500 Super Snake and I'm looking to add a Cobra or GT 40 to the list. My car number is 07SS0041 and it is the 725 HP version of the Snake. What I have learned is; all that power is incredible, but getting it to the road is another story.
I have been looking for a Cobra or GT only a couple of months, and during the process I have met some really nice folks. People who are willing to share information, show their cars and even a couple who have let me drive theirs.

I am looking forward to reading and learning more about the GT 40 cars and anything else I can .
I am a frequent reader of several sites, but not a frequent poster.

So, I will be here frequently, but no doubt only post a little. I think many folks are much more knowledgable than I am on these cars.

Glad to be here.
Bill

Welcome Bill. A coworker has 07SS0040, also the 725hp version, red/black with carbon fiber splitter, etc. Big power, big fun. Having gone the cobra and 40 route, I would recommend the 40. You won't regret it!
