JeffJ Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) Interesting. Other than the Supersnake stripe being too narrow. Must be a must see with a GT500 as one of the main characters! August 30th opening. That just looks so wrong with that stripe!!! Whey didn't they get the right stripes?

2007tungstenGT500 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 thats not even a true GT500. look at the tachometer font, the steering wheel design, the rear GT spoiler, and the skinny tires tucked under the fenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cormy Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Are you sure FORD didn't produce this movie...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2007tungstenGT500 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 if ford had a stake in it, i think they would have used a 2014 model to promote new car sales and the overall ford brand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffJ Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 I'm sure it will be a typical movie that will drive us Shelby guys nuts. They will probably have one or two real GT500's for the nice scenes and then a few Mustang GT based cars to do stunts and such. I almost don't want to watch it as I'll pick it apart to bad! Oh well, good car action is always awesome. I enjoyed Fast 6 even with it's out of the world stunt fakeness and 500 mile runway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewheelman Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Hollywood! Looks great, inaccurate, but fun. What would you expect from the folks who have made all the world believe Eleanor was the way all GT 500's were made??????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandy09 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 is this going to make the prices on these cars skyrocket like the 67-68 "gt500" s either way looks like a good flick. ill probably and up getting a ticket leaving the theater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ITHERTZ66 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) "I am Legend" = total waste of time. I wonder why they used a similar color combo as Eleanor for this "other" Shelby movie? Edited June 6, 2013 by ITHERTZ66 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffJ Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 Stripes look pretty good to me or is my monitor that bad that I'm missing something? Below are stripe pics from the movie car and a "real" SS. Steve Pull up your picture of the movie car. Look at the little pop up in the corner of the clip of the trailer and the picture on the poster. Not the same car. Look at the little pop up picture vs. the larger picture. The stripe is much more narrow in the actual trailer. I think that movie poster picture is an actual SS, where the stunt cars and cars in the movie have a narrower SS stripe.

shelbymotorsports Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 Without two photos taken at the same angle its hard for me to see. I tried to grab some more screen shots, see below. It is true that the movie cars are not real Super Snakes, by real I mean a SS built by SAI with an official CSM number, but if I recall the SS parts were obtained from SAI for these movie cars. It doesn't make sense to obtain all the SS parts from us but then say no we'll pass on the stripes and make our own. Always a possibility I suppose.

JeffJ Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 (edited) Look at the distance between the stripe and the hood vents. Here's a good comparison from your pic. Look at the smaller stripes compared to the steering wheel, etc. Also, the movie car stripes are glossy. I bet it is 2-3" narrower at least.

Yes I noticed that earlier but then when I compare the hood stripe width to say the rear view mirror width or the distance between the headrests I just don't see them being 2-3" narrower. We'll know more and be able to post more in about a month. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffJ Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) Rear shots give good perspective with the brake light and license plate opening. All three stripes on the movie car are within the width of the single black stripe of an actual SS. All I know is right when I saw the first image in the trailer, I knew it was very wrong. They could have done this a little bit better. Maybe it will only matter to a few of us but....... Edited July 24, 2013 by JeffJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewheelman Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 So, Bucky back in the body shop is taking his break when the movie hot shots roll in with this Mustang all chewed up from filming and say, "Repaint it." And he does, but when he gets down to the stripes....they ain't lookin', nobody knows what he's doin' so Bucky just paints 'em as he sees 'em........knowhatimean?

Shelby73 Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Saw the movie, it was not very good! The car is not a supper snake nor are they gt500's. Sad, the stripe is wrong to skinny the wheels in the movie are the stock 2007-2009 oem gt500 wheels painted/black powder coated. Best part is close up shows tack on left Speedo on right. Yupp that aint right. Movie poster shows super snake with alcola wheels. WTF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cormy Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Nobody has mentioned the other "star" Selena Gomez Has anybody seen it yet? Not expecting an academy award winner, just nice scenery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobramach1 Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Selena looks like she's 10 in the movie and her acting is horrible. One thing that should be noted about the car not looking right is that they do sort of make up for that when Selena says she bought a super snake AND THEN customized it to her tastes. That gets them some leeway in the looks of the car overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secondo Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Wow so she put the Mustang GT wheels/tires and gauges in it? Ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSSNAKE Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 So it's my granddaughters birthday, she likes the disney characters (Selena Gomez) and my wife likes movies with more action and less talk since english is not her first language and I thought perfect, This would be a great opportunity to see this movie and a great birthday present! An hour (+) long chase scene with about 10 minutes of "acting". We all agreed it was an "ok" movie but at the end, my granddaughter say's; I don't get it, you mean the vilian put the hero through all that just to prove he "still had it"? My response, uuhh.......good question, Happy Birthday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
