It has a brand new ~600hp (according to Shelby) V10, and the chassis is aluminum unibody and such...but who cares when its that god damn UGLY, I don't even think a mother could love something that ugly, lol. How could they go from the beautiful 289/427 cobra too that hideous, slab sided car? It seems very high quality and performance oriented, but too bad about that styling. :roll:

weird, it just doesn't look RIGHT for some reason, look like a box, the interior look plain too, plus i don't like the color of the interior.

it's not that big of a vehicle....it's not that much bigger then a Miata really nor does it weigh much more.

It's a beautiful vehicle; I'd take it in a heartbeat.

Well it's not as big as a Mustang or anything but it's definitely larger than a Miata, hell the engine is larger than the front half of a Miata. It will definitely be bigger than the original because of safety laws and what not.

they should have made it more like the GT and the Mustang, more similar to the original
