ShelbyEra08 Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 I was browsing Mecum site and came across this car: http://www.mecum.com/auctions/lot_detail.cfm?LOT_ID=DA0913-165520&entryRow=263&lottype=&startRow=261 the description is: This 2010 Ford Shelby Super Snake combines all that model’s race-inspired styling and performance with the extra features of the low-production Terlingua Edition package. Number 10 in the SS Terlingua series, this one-owner Shelby stormer delivers a staggering 850 horsepower from its Whipple supercharged 5.4 L 32-valve V-8 engine through a Tremec 6-speed manual transmission. The extensive list of modifixcations and features includes Eibach suspension, Baer 6-piston disc brakes, 20-inch Shelby Alcoa aluminum wheels, full Super Snake body and interior badging, a full roll cage by Shelby Automotive and Carroll Shelby-autographed sun visors. This highly collectible one-owner Super Snake comes with an included Carfax report. Is there a Terlingua Series SuperSnake, or someone give Mecum the incorrect info?

I don't see anything that says "Terlingua" or "Terlingua Edition" on this car. I see a CSM number for a 2010 Super Snake, I see Super Snake badging, I see Super Snake floor mats, I see Super Snake stripes but nothing that has Terlingua differences. Maybe I am missing something in the pictures? R Edited September 6, 2013 by Robert M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPRSNK Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 (edited) lol This again? Terlingua Island is like Margaritaville. It is a feeling, a way of life and it is anywhere we wish it to be. Terlingua is in Texas which is where everyone but the heathens will be in a few weeks :D Edited September 6, 2013 by SPRSNK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyEra08 Posted September 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Look at the windshield banner decal. This car is a real Super Snake but the Terlingua part is an owner modification. Steve that is what I thought, but I am getting kinda huh? when it says its #10 in the Terlingua Series. Hope the guy/gal who buys it does not fall for the fake info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve I saw the banner, but was not able to identify what it said. I would much rather have my "Super Snake" windshield banner. I need to install it someday!!

DubbsFaris Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 (edited) That car is very familiar to me.... I don't know where Mecum got the idea it was a Terlingua edition, but I seriously doubt it was from the owner. They would never mislead a buyer. And frankly, that car already has some one off items on it Shelby never did for another car. If they were smart, they would be advertising those things.

doc scott Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 It sold at a auction here in Tulsa a few months back and went to a dealer in Texas, I'm sure the dealer is being a little creative with his marketing.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubbsFaris Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 That makes much more sense to me. Thanks for clearing that up Scott. Some dealers truly have no shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
