I like how Shelby American decided to take up all the frunk space with a hood ā€œheat extractorā€ that serves no purpose whatsoever. Classic.

But, if the driver gets caught in a rainstorm at least the birds will have a birdbath once the storm blows over. ??ā€ā™‚

In the video he explains that it is in fact a radiator for battery, motor cooling, and airflow.

I find the whole thing to be cringey. On the sides, replace 'Shelby' with 'Police,' and it starts to make sense. I would much rather it have a 'stealth' appearance.

The side stripes are horrible. 99% chance they are vinyl and could be easily removed, at least.

Interesting, I stand corrected. Perhaps. Weā€™ll see what makes production and if it really functions. Shelby American has a rich history of cranking out some outrageous HP Mustang coupes that somehow perform worse than Ford factory efforts. For way more $$$ too.

I canā€™t decide on this car. Side stripes are yucky. The wheels are ok but I like the GTPE better.

Hood and front, undecided.

Probably the most important line from the video ā€œwe are still developing the power trainā€¦ā€

You know they want and will get more power.

Donā€™t bet on it. SA has a bad rep for claiming all kinds of crazy HP in the Super Snakes and then shit the bed in instrumented testing. Slower than regular GT500s etc. And Iā€™m talking going back more than 10-15 years not just recent stuff. I have no faith in them.

It's still ugly as sin.
I liked the look actually. It was side by side with a GT at the show and everyone was gawking at the Shelby. There was a married couple debating over the two cars and he preferred the GT with an explanation the hardware was the same under the skin. She said "Well that may be the case but the Shelby is sexy as hell." The husband conceded. :)

I was able to spend some time alone with the vehicles after hours and I can confirm the Shelby does have some hardware upgrades related to cooling. It also does not appear to have the 5 second ceiling.

Yes, this 1000%. Would not consider buying anything from SA. I have owned and may own again a Ford-engineered GT500 or GT350, and so on, but those have nothing to do with the Shelby American company. Lots of people don't seem to realize that. If we ever get a Shelby-badged Mach E, it likely won't have anything to do with SA. Ford just pays them for the use of the name.
