Shelby Cobra Mustang SVT

Looks quite a bit like the '05 NAIAS concept car.

If you look at the front grill/bumper/lower grill it looks like a McDonalds Burger Sign.

Clearly a test mule and not the finished product, but this thing should be a monster.

I loved the showcar.

Re: Shelby Cobra Mustang SVT

Are those the production rims? They look like 15's. That car needs at least 18's to look right IMO

Same here. Which is why i love cars like the EVO and STi.

I think this GT500 will be a stunner in the looks department, and don't see it as ugly, but that's hardly a big deal when there's 450-500 horses under the hood.

About wheel size, it's hard to tell. Those are probably 17's. Imo, even 20's don't look that big on the new stangs and 17's look small on them. The GT500 should have 18's standard and 19's optional from what i've heard.

Re: Shelby Cobra Mustang SVT

Hopefully the production wheels are a Ford design . Lets leave the Z06 wheels for the F-bodies and Vettes please

Exactly. Gotta respect a car that comes with 450hp from the factory and is actually semi-affordable.

Re: Shelby Cobra Mustang SVT

Those wheels are infact 18"ers. 285/40 ZR18 out back. I forgot the fronts. Actually I forgot to snap a pic of the size for ease of finding.
