I agree. While initially I was on the waiting list for the 2006 Shelby, once I saw it, I backed out. U G L Y. The 2007 is nice and looks close to the classics, but it's still much too modern for me.

The rounded front ends just irritate the shit out of me. Makes every car look alike these days.

Couple of Shelbys in this area which I love to see. Every so often I hear of a garage/barn find of a GT350 or GT500 and I wish it were me. I'm actually looking for a late 60's fastback right now but don't want to have to restore anything.

I love when some kid in a 2004 Mustang pulls up along side of me, revs his engine over and over, then leaves an inch of rubber when he takes off. Make me want to yell SORRY YOUR PENIS IS SO SMALL.
