Wow, thanks Brad!

I like the hood they have on their car. I also like how they give you actual options to add to the car and offer a full warranty.

Sweeeeettt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I especially like the rear quarter window scoops, the best execution of that design I have seen so far. I'm also digging the non-chrome wheels on the yellow car. Very nice find, Brad.

I think you may be right Dave!



I did notice it also has vents like the saleen further back on the hood as well, I missed them the first time.

I like it even more now!

The hood and the ducktail rock!!! I'm sure they will be selling the individual pieces in addition to turn-key rides.

Keeping true with form, the original GT500 did not have a third brake light, the spoiler line on the bottom continues across to the brake lights on each side.

If you look at a few other manufacturers with the ducktail spoiler on the trunk they, too, are missing the 3rd brake light. So: The spoiler replaces it

what's the big deal of not having a third brake light? IMO it looks much cleaner without it.

They can put the third light in the rear window and still be legal, so I wouldn't see that as much of a problem. And, I do think it looks much better that way (no third light).

It looks good but squeezing 550HP out of the stock 4.6L 3V engine is not good. The engine will never last. Same with the stock A/T and M/T. Neither one is rated for that much torque.

The pricing is outragous as well. You are looking at $40K just for the body kit before P/T upgrade, add in wheels tires, chassis mods, paint, and audio upgrade and you are over $50K! No thanks...

The stock aluminum V8 will withstand 500hp and it has been tested by many companies. It has been tested on dyno's & at the track. There are many companies that have been testing the limits of this engine for aftermarket items such as blowers and even the Ford Racing Dept. says "500 hp...no problem!"

So bringing the HP to 550 is not a big deal when it's not done by the guy down the street who only knows how to change an oil filter.
