This guy will look stupid when the real shelb's come out

 

personally, i think he looks stupid right now... as does yet another "eleanor" mustang... ugh

 

Don't know if I like that ski-jump hood..

 

ugly

 

needs to be lowered....

but yeah...just wait for the real thing...

 

I think it looks pretty good . . .

 

Just my opinion, but I think this whole 'eleanor' craze is going to be looked back upon, like the customized van craze of the 70s. :notnice:

 

Theres one local to me that has put the Shelby on the trunk like that. I had a conversation with someone that thought it was the "real thing" or should I say argument....

 

 

Meh.

 

I saw how he states that the hood is very hard to find. Funny I see them everywhere!!

I agree, I think the eleanor crazy will be looked back on as the vans of the 70's.

:shock:

 

I have NEVER understood the "Eleanor' craze. The '67 Shelby had muscular looks and graceful lines, then some movie makes a rolling Frankenstein custom roughly based on one, and just 'cause it's in a movie people accept is as highly desireable?

Those of you that like the Eleanor look be honest, if some no-name company without a movie tie-in released a car with an ugly upside down foot bath on the hood, who would have wanted it? Fortunately (or unfortunately) this is America, and hype rules

 

I agree 100%

 

This is all about personal preference. If you like the look then buy the car and be happy. I find it hard to beleive someone is going to take it upon themselves to challenge you and convince you that the vehicle you just spent 30k on totally sucks. I am not a gear head by any means so I can't speak to the specific differences between this car and a real Cobra (HP I'm guessing) but its fine if people like it - no?

Personally I don't care for all the stripes and custom bits - I especially don't understand why people install that light bar. I was at my dealer and he had on in the shop they were modding. I said, "Oh cool - that one has a roll bar, that makes sense if you have that much under the hood." He quickly corrected me saying, "Nope, that thing is just for looks - people love it."

For me the light bar ruin's the elegant line of the vert. Like I said, to each his own.

 

I can't believe someone hasn't commented on those absurd bling bling rims on the car.

 

Personal Preference:
Blackout Rear Panel and Stripes on the same Car
do not make me Smile.

Lite Bar, Personal Preference, On the practical side it does offer more protection than Air.
Also, gives more structural strength to the Convert Body. IMO

 

I've seen much uglier than that

 

The riceboys will love destroying a "shelby" and posting about it on their web boards.

Also, those rims are hideous.

 

I don't really like the hood so much. But the rest of it looks pretty darn nice to me.

Of course I've never really understood why people get so uptight about what OTHER people do to their cars. If someone wants to put different badges on the car and paint it to their liking then who cares?

I mean it's not your car so why worry about it?

If the guy was trying to fool a prospective buyer into thinking it was a REAL Shelby then I would understand... otherwise why worry about it?

 

Its the same as transforming 3rd gen firebirds into knight rider replica's, people want their car to look like the car's on television and in the movies.
