Shelby uses the Ford to make the GT500 and GT350.
Similar to Saleen. |

Shelby has be modding Mustangs for 40 years. The GT350 and GT500 are legendary. Far superior to anything Saleen does.
Plus - Shelby takes the SVT Cobra and mods it, generally Saleen takes a GT and stages it up.
SVT vehicles are top notch (no bias here). |

Mustang 2004 had very little realibility issues, it shouldn't be any different with the 2005 model. |

Shelby GR-1
| quote: |
CARMEL, Calif.--Ford's Cobra Concept at the North American International Auto Show in January 2004 was met with a cool response. Critics said it lacked the passion and emotion of the original Cobra. And it didn't quite resonate with showgoers the way the Ford GT did. But one look at this new Shelby GR-1 Concept might make those critics eat their words.
This car is a stunner.
Ford chose to unveil its swoopy Shelby GR-1 here at the 2004 Pebble Beach weekend. And judging by the water cooler buzz we've heard, most agree that this is a car Ford needs to build.
And many within Ford agree, too. The house that Henry built needs another car to offset the initial development costs of the expensive Ford GT's architecture. And the GR-1 would be a perfect successor once the GT goes out of production in 2007. The GR-1 concept is built from a modified version of the GT's platform. But instead of the GT's mid-engine supercharged V8, there's a 605-hp normally aspirated 6.4-liter V10 riding up front. And before this 2-seat fastback supercar's body panels were even created, the fully operational running chassis was test driven at high speeds at Ford's Dearborn Proving Ground.
If the GR-1 meets with as much enthusiasm at the 2005 North American International Auto Show as we saw here at Pebble Beach, you can bet the GR-1 will make it to a Ford store near you by the end of the decade.
