Never New

[P3SAR]

There is a big difference between flat out not liking a car, and that same car not being a "big deal" or a piece. For example, I personally would always choose a Vette over a porsche 911, but I realize the 911 is an amazing car.

I wouldn't personally throw the money down on a SuperSnake either, but I know those cars are worthy of respect.

Looks like a bad ass car to me. Personally I love the red GT posted on another thread.

Notice all the major negative comments are from v6 owners. . . talking down a 700hp supersnake. . .

The car itself looks good, especially the hood, but the side scoops and wheels are bleh. Nice color. I wouldn't want one personally, but I'm glad Ford owners have something they can crow about. Keeps GM in the fight. Which is good for the rest of us.

But the biggest factor was that the Super Snake had more motor than tire. It came in dead last on the track, on the skid pad, and in breaking. It was also only able to tie the SRT8 for second in 0-60 despite the fact that the Super Snake had an almost 200 hp advantage.

Whatever. It looks like a mustang with some auto zone plastic extras stuck on.

The name Super Snake originated back in the late sixties. Not sure if it came before or after Cobra production ended. But they took the 427 Ford engine used in the Cobra and shoehorned it into a 1967 GT500. As far as I know, it was the only GT500 with a 427. With the reintroduction of the GT500 in 2006, Shelby began production of the new Super Snake in 2007 as an upgrade.

Also, most of those "Auto Zone plastic extras" are actually carbon fiber and very expensive.
