2007 Shelby GT-500 — 2012 V5535

A white door roundel with a large 28 stands out against the deep yellow body. Silver-and-blue stripes, blue-tinted windows and blue wheel rims tie the details together. This is the PR5-wheel version of the two pictured 2012 Code Cars.

Choosing one for your collection

Check the blue rims, the edge of the white roundel and the narrow stripe printing. A side photo should show the PR5 wheel pattern; the purple recolor changes both the rim color and wheel design.

The blue-tinted windows and blue rim edges are useful checks on a loose example. The reference does not show the original card or an unused code, so those extras need their own listing photos.

Collector questions

Do the yellow and purple Code Cars use the same wheels?

No. Yellow V5535 has blue-rimmed black PR5 wheels. Purple V5599 has yellow-rimmed black J5 wheels.
