I have no idea what ohio snake is talking about..

its clearly led tails on the gloss black rear decklid panel, as well as 13/14 stripes.

If it were clear as you state, there would not be a conversation as to what year the Shelby is. Some people including myself saw the tail lights as being non LED...but the video is slightly grainy and the stripes look to be the thin ones from an earlier model.

However, SRT8Tech does point out something about that Shelby which you can see clearly...the rocker panels are the same color as the car which is a trait of the '13 and '14's. Since I can assume that car is a '14, the driver ability was not there as that car should have bettered the CTS by a half second.

Look behind the back wheels on the bottom of the 1/4 panel and look at the rocker panel covers. What color are they?? Do they match the color of the car or are they dark grey? That should give it away.
Just because it ran slow doesn't mean that is not a 13-14 GT500. Its all in the driver with these things.
Here is a pic of the side of my car. Up until 2012 they had the bottom of the sides and rear dark grey then changed that to match the body color in 2013.

Thanks for your input. That helps out.
