Ok your being willfully dense. If you think one of the biggest auto manufactures in the world could not build a car cheaper themselves on their assembly lines then having a secondary boutique company like Shelby America bolt on after market parts by hand. I don't know what to tell you? I understand Shelby buys S550 Mustangs from Ford and then installs Ford racing catalog parts on it at a gigantic profit. I don't even know why you keep bring that up? It's like have a conversation with a child with you. You have to be old enough to remember the 2003-2004 Mustang Cobra? It was a completely in house built car. It came with a super charged V8 and was built with a IRS!!! That's right a completely redesigned suspension! Is Shelby America completely redesigning the S550 suspension? No but you'd think they are by the money they are charging! Shelby isn't designing anything! They are flipping open the Ford Racing Catalog and bolting on parts! You could do that in your driveway. THE COBRA HAD A STARTING PRICE OF $34,750!!!!!! Inflation hasn't increased $34,750 into $88,700 (cost of a super snake) in ten years!!!! The Super Snake has less design content when you compare it to a 2004 Cobra but costs considerably more! Ford COULD build and sell the car for 65-70K. They don't need Shelby!
