Eh the new Mustangs are not real... They're nearly 4,000 pounds anyway. That's no fun.



Anyone want to go to hell with me for posting this?

Not real? So, I imagined it for the last 3 years, huh?

Hahaha!! Yeah that was all just a dream. Wake up, they don't make Shelby's in white! (kidding).



My next door neighbor has one (not a Shelby like yours of course) granted it's a V6...but I've watched over it. I think it's got a classic layout (engine bay, drive-train) but I'm not impressed with the styling. It looks very bland, linear, and bulky in weight. You can't even feel anything because the car just absorbs everything. It's nothing impressive, like an expensive car you buy fresh from the lot and when you arrive home you sigh "ahh just another day only with this hunk of heap to take me places, oh crap I'm out 25 grand."



I think these are WAYYYY cooler and more iconic than any new Mustang.





Sounds 1000 X better too, raw, beautiful, and iconic. Especially with a catback. The convertibles are cooler of course, and look absolutely great.

An unmolested immaculate '03 to '04 Cobra costs more than my brand new '08.
