im not a mustang/ford person however I got to say I like the last body style so much more than these we are looking at here.

imo this gt350 looks like a advertisement for a bodykit

For you Ford guys with 05-08 cars I think your body style looks more broad shouldered and muscle looking. This New Stangs reminds me of a BMW with the curves and wheels and etc.

I guess that's why I wouldn't buy one, because If I give them $60K+ then they better give me a vehicle that can roast 95% of the vehicles on the street.

yes, but ford now has the 5.0 to compete with the ss, and we have no direct competitor for the gt500

I'll be sure and pass that suggestion on to Shelby Automobiles, but somehow I don't think anything is going to change. Maybe they should have come up with something like Z28, ZL1 or something like that back in 1965? I mean, those labels really spell out something to the average buyer who knows nothing of GM history, right?

Alright ... that has nothing at all to do with this car though.

Because it's ugly. It's like someone raided the JC Whitney catalog for the body kit. I realize it's not finalized but there are a lot of problems with this car.

-If you thought the Camaros reverse lights placement was bad this is even worse.
-It's got GT350 and Shelby stamped on it more then some guys pimped out Cadillac with symbols all over it. Less is more here. This is like the Pauly D of cars.
-It's just FRPP parts. Where is the real race inspired tuning that made the originals great. It's sad the best Shelby comes from SVT.

Ford needs to copy that rear end off of shelby then the factory car would be perfect.
