Re: New Terlingua Car Unveiled At Sema
I just got back from las vegas where i toured the factory and got under a terlingua v6 car with the optional paxton underhood while it was being serviced on a lift. I was actually rather surprised when i saw the car in person as in the photos i thought it looked a little too over the top. However, after viewing the car in person, i have to say that it is done very tastfully and just looks like a badass ride, plain and simple. The car truly much more attractive in person than in the photos.
I have got to say that i was truly impressed by the huge bang for your buck that you recieve with this car! For the price of a v6 car plus something in the high 14,000 to low 15,000 range, you recieve what i believe is a true road racer for the street! The car has much beefier suspension (obviously), a functional ram air hood, quarter window black outs, razor wheels, baer 6 piston brakes, a tasteful spoiler, guage pod, momo racing seats, custom shot throw shifter, custom hood pins, mesh grille, front facia, side scoops, sequential tail lights, engine start button, functional brake cooling ducts, running board heat shields, (my favorite) borla designed side exhaust (make a pretty mean roar), and of course the paxton which gives the car an astonishing 375+ hp (was told by amy bolyan herself that the car is close to a strong 400 hp)!
(oh yeah...plenty of 'drunken rabbits' all over the car)
THis car will eat any stock gt 500 for lunch on the road course and cost less than you pay for a stock shelby gt! (plus it will be far more scarce)
Shelby Autos says that they are marketing the car to the youth market, but i have to say that i am seriously considering pulling the trigger on this one if i can scrap some coin together.
Just thought id share.
Best Regards,
Vern
