Dream concepts

There have been many happy returns this year, at least in concept forms, such as the Challenger concept, Miura concept, Camaro concept.

Now what would be your choice of a new one to come?

I voted for the Shelby Cobra, but I'd like a Shelby Daytona Coupe more (see Ford Shelby GR-1 concept).

Re: Dream concepts

there already is a shelby cobra concept. what's more, it's even full functioning. check out the article

http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/...ive/index.html

v10, 600hp, 3200lbs...car and driver estimates a 0-60 time in only 3.2s.
i really really REALLY hope ford makes this car...not that i'd ever be able to afford one to own, but just because it's awesome.
it seems production could be a reality. it shares a lot of stuff in the structure and suspension with the gt, and after ford stops producing that, they've got the plant and the production space readily suited to making the cobra. let's all cross our fingers

Re: Dream concepts

Out of the choices above I'd have to say I would like the Shelby Cobra to be made. I think it looks the best, IMO.

Too bad the owner's locked up for selling coke.

I didn't vote for any of them, honestly.
