Look What I Found This Morning

Retread · 06-27-2006, 02:30 PM

Shelby prototype was in our shop when I came into work this morning.

500 hp, 5.4L DOHC Supercharged V8.

2007 Shelby GT500 Prototype. We are fitting Stainless Steel mesh for the grill , facia and hood, in this pre-production prototype.

peliROJO · 06-27-2006, 02:34 PM

Nice, what yall doing to it?

06CivEXJon · 06-27-2006, 02:34 PM

It's a prototype. Not in production yet. It will not be a plush interior anyway.
It's made for racing primarily. You should NOT be seeing these pictures yet,
but I thought I would share.

eh...you get what you pay for.

wait a min....it cost $45K.....

J/K It is a nice car but Mustangs have always been about brute performance not their interiors.

AWESOME! I'd love to drive that car around. Do you know if the GT500s will be a stripped interior?

It'd be sweet to hang with C5 Vettes in a 'Stang. >=]

I'm drooling profusely.

SiC17 · 06-27-2006, 03:07 PM

I think the big, red "Emergency Stop" button is my favorite part.... sweet.

Thanks for sharing those pics! Just make sure you and your shop don't get in trouble for posting those pictures.

Every car should come with a bright red emergency stop button!

goooooooo!

06CivEXJon · 06-27-2006, 06:15 PM

Woah what the hell is the emergency stop button? you think it really works?

FunkNasty777 · 06-27-2006, 06:37 PM

ITs more than likely a prototype only thing. If something goes wrong, it just kills the engine or something like that.

It's a Ford...of course something will go wrong!

Maybe they have finally realized their own faults and so they added a kill switch for safety measures.

All_bets_off · 06-27-2006, 08:21 PM

maybe it's an ejection seat...

larryd · 06-27-2006, 08:33 PM

I wouldn't mind having the power but I hate the package it comes in.

peliROJO · 06-27-2006, 09:21 PM

It looks so cheap. But, if it were nice inside it'd be $80k.

For starters:
Blinker switch
A/C controls
E brake
And that front grille, looks almost like it's going to fall out.

This outside looks great though. I can almost hear it purring.
