I would not buy an 05 or newer. I think they look like ****. WTF did they make the mufflers exposed fromt he back of the car for? And yet people line up in hordes to get one.

These are 450 hp at the flywheel? WTF is so impressive about that? You can put a blowe on an f-body and get better numbers than that, on a better looking car too (and that's not saying much for the shelby)

$65,000???

I think it's for the more money than brains club. I'm still waiting on their invitation.

ok, i just found out what the car i was talkin about is, its the Shelby GT-H, its like a regular gt with some mods, and it only comes in black with gold stripes, and what it is is a rental car made for hertz, its the stupidest thing ive ever heard of, ive seen a couple of them and i guess they r pretty rare cuz they are only making like 500, they are calling them rental racers

They made some Hertz rentals in the 60's and are replicating that with the new one. That's what it's about. mark
