Florida Chris Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 I was there when the photo was taken this morning. The car looks great. The guy in the photo is with Ford in charge of marketing. Look close, in the background you will see Ford GTs. There are 85 in the parking lot behind the car. We were there for a photo shoot as well. Edsel Ford was standing about 50 yards behind the car, but he is not pictured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NVWSSV Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 Thank you for the pics, gotta watch the vid now. Make mine white (I had a black car once, never again). I can't believe so many people on other treads/boards are bashing this car, I love it and want one. Sure the riveted hood scoop is odd, but it’s kinda old school cool at the same time. It took balls for CS, Ford, whoever, to go that route. And no spoiler looks awesome. I will say that the 235's out back will have to go and the shifter is ugly, but those can be easily dealt with. Five Oh, I sent you an e-mail. EDIT: Nice vid! Ride height looks perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuscleManiac Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Please tell me that hood scoop is functional, and not a apperance package kinda scoop like on the California special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertlane Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 I wasn't certain that I would like the car at all, but it is really cool. There are only two things that didn't appeal to me: 1) The stripe says "Shelby GT" and the "GT" fender badges are still here.....so it's kinda redundant without needing to be. I think the "GT" on the fender should be omitted, because the stripe itself is great. 2) The hood scoop is cool, but I'm not too certain about the exposed rivets. It gives me the impression that some "ricer" added it and it's not a factory piece. But, some people seem to like it, so there. Other than that, I think Ford (and Shelby) are doing a good job pumping out some varients. . .and more are on the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NVWSSV Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Now that's a forumula that would rock. Toss in the 4.6L Terminator engine and wow That's what I'm talking about. Is that what Ford's talking about? I know you can't say but nudge, nudge anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
