On 02/05/2009 at 10 pm Shelby will be releasing a new Mustang. I dont know what model but I was told it should be street legal. Does anyone know what it is? Any guesses?
Someone suggested the 2010 Supersnake or KR. Shelby. Shelby also said they are going to release a 2009 GT-R a race ready (non-street legal) 500+ hp Shelby Mustang MSRP $140,000. Kinda like the 1967 Shelby GT350. I guess thats another car I can add on my "I cant afford list"! That is all I heard so far.
