well so much for the picture, but if you have seen the newer gone in 60 seconds you will know what im talking about. there is a company that builds shelby gt500's for people and sell them at a price of 99k. anyway one of the colors you can get is the eleanor color from the movie. or you can get the reverse image and get a black car with the grey stripes and it looks pretty bad ass.
