This Shelby is plain sick

I had seen a vid on this a while back, but not this one, so I though I'd post it up. Especially since I have none of my own....

Not sure which it is but I'm pretty certain it's powered by an LS series engine. I think it's the 6.0 but I could be mistaken

If only i struck it rich. I would have a list of 7-8 cars on order, that being one of them.

Been following the development of that car for a couple of years now. Glad to see they weren't another company the promised big things and couldn't deliver.

I see an LSx AFR head and Fast intake peeking out!!!!!

I would take this over the Veyron any day. This car is badass. I think the Veyron is hideous. Not to mention this gets better performance for 60% of the price with a good ole American V8 powering it. Cant beat that.
