Haha! Yeah, me too. That one was bone stock under the hood from what I've seen, though he has done a Paxton or Vortech on others.

I was curious when they said they wanted the scoops to be functional. They talked about them getting air to the rear brakes, to an amp, or both. I wonder if they actually did that?

BTW, did anyone catch that CDC will be producing the body kit? That sure seems to hint that they will sell the body kit by itself.

I liked the way the car looked. IT would depend on the cost though. I bet it will be pretty darn expensive, like a Saleen. the car will be getting a custom, hand applied paint job. I can't justify paying a lot extra just to make a car look pretty. I bet these cars won't be costing much less than a Shelby, 40k at least.

This may sound screwy but, the front end looked better in his first rendering (the one where the car has shelby stripes) than the actual car. It looked less bulky.

That's the beauty and the flaw of hand drawings. They look cool, but are rarely an absolutely accurate depiction of what the car is going to look like when finished. In this case, the car didn't look as good as the sketch.

Reportedly the price I have seen and heard batted around will be around the Shelby cost of just under 40K. Most likely 38K is what I would guess to be somewhat competitive to sell the 2500 amount.

No offense but for the same money a genuine Shelby car is going to keep its value a lot better than a Foose bodykit

I agree completely Dustin.

The car is nice but with it mainly just being appearance mods, not sure if any suspension work was done, I will gladly take the Shelby over it.

Kris, I am assuming you are the one who did the PHR Camaro concept? That thing was all over the Net.
