Carroll Shelby unveils CS 6 Mustang at SEMA

A new Shelby Mustang will go on sale in 2006 - and it’s a V6! Looking for the same combination of balance, power and agility as the legendary GT350, Shelby Automobiles decided to use a supercharged V6 as the powerplant for its newest Mustang, the CS 6, rather than a V8. The car is on display at the Vortech/Paxton booth at SEMA.

The centerpiece of the engine bay is a NOVI-1200 Paxton intercooled supercharger, which boosts the output of the V6 to more than 350 hp. Other performance enhancements include a suspension upgrade, Baer brakes and Borla dual exhaust.

Interior and exterior mods include:

* Custom hood
* Custom grilles
* New front and rear fascia
* Custom 20” American Racing wheels
* Shelby Automobiles badging

This is the case where buying a v6 is not a bad thing.

Thats kind of cool that they would do something for a V6 car. Not the run of the mill special edition V8 car like they always are.

Sure, but at what price? Looks nice, but I'd assume it is pretty damn expensive.

Re: Carroll Shelby unveils CS 6 Mustang at SEMA

I bet the least that goes for is 37.5k, but people will buy them because it will be a collector car.

I'd be willing to bet you could buy a 2006 GT mustang put brakes, suspension mods, wheels and tires and be at the same price.
