MUNCLE MIKES COLLECTOR GUIDE

Shelby GT-500 — 2008 L9915 Black

Silver stripes run over the black body and along the lower doors. Bright Y5 wheels keep the debut wheel design, while the smoke-tinted windows and black interior make the cabin less obvious than on the pearl-white car.

Look beyond the rally stripes

The black recolor shares L9915, the 2008 New Models 1/40 series number and 001/196 collector number. The reference lists glossy black grille and headlight details, a black plastic base and Malaysian production. The silver decoration distinguishes it from later black Shelbys with red or green graphics.

Choosing one for your collection

Use a top view to check the silver stripes across the hood, roof and spoiler. On a dark car, light scratches and wheel-edge rubs are easier to see under soft lighting than a direct flash.

This loose reference has no original card in view. The common L9915 code covers several debut colors, so it is not a complete variation description by itself.

Collector questions

Is this the black Speed Machines Shelby?
