Well, I don't know any Ferrari owners or restoration guys, so I wouldn't know about color changes. I can loosen-up my ideas about how Shelbys should be. I'm just trying to find my first one. I'll just take my future car back to factory paint, even if I don't like that color or I can pass on it and wait to find another one. Anyways, I just really like Shelbys, so I'll buy one some day.
