The Shelby GT is all about cosmetics and appearance, not function. It amazes me the US market still views such huge heavy vehicles as "performance" cars.
On Friday I saw a Mustang engaging in the only thing it excels at. A film crew closed a street in downtown LA to shoot a Mustang doing donuts in the middle of the road for about 30 seconds. I was surprised the city allowed a film crew to mess up the street with all that rubber.
It was probably for some Ford commercial, and it\'s interesting that this is the visual image they use to sell the car.
