Yea, its the cover story in Motor Trend last month maybe, I cant remember. Its a sweet car. It would be bad ass to have that thing. Its gonna be the last Shelby design ever. Shelby said that hes gonna retire makin those kind of cars.

I like it, but the headlight design could be a tiny bit different.

I watched the show that showed how they built it. The engineers were POUNDING on one of the pistons with the handle of a hammer to get it in. Not exactly the most mechanically inclined people in the world for a 1off car it seemed. Normally you just apply more pressure until the piston slides in, but no, they pound the shit out of it to get it in. ;)

Ford is making some good changes to the line up. I've heard that they're doing away with "SVT" and re-naming everything after Mr Shelby. For example, no more Mustang SVT Cobra or Cobra R, It will be the Shelby GT500/350 R.

Not to mention they hit the looks of that car right on the nuts. If I had money, I'd buy one :rally:

yeah i saw that show with them building it too, its a gorgeous car. actually the whole new ford lineup is looking pretty good actually. the interiors are getting better (i like interiors) and the exterior styling is getting much more modern. the new Lightning, mustang, some of the foci, all look pretty damn good.
