this car looks pretty sweet, it would be cool if they made it, and considering how fast the gt is, this one has to be a lot faster!!!!

Kinda looks like a modern day Pantera.

So take the TVR n the G40 and you get this.

I think that was ol' Carroll Shelby and his new Shelby Cobra concept car!

it wasnt the new concept car for himn im sure of i say the discovery special of himi and his concept car but this is nice ok heres my rendition Ford wants to play with astin martin aston martin says leave me alone so ford punches him in the face and shuves the gt40 in his face so what do u get a higher standing car with a huge rx8 style gap in the middlie and a stunted up front end. there u go Fords a real kicker.

My friend who interns at Ford is in love with that Daytona concept. I love everything about it except for the body. This retro-styling has got to stop. :(

Interesting concept but I don't like it.

One of the first cars to go 0-100 and back to 0 in less than 10 seconds. :)

that top view looks sweet, but there is something weird about the profile. I think it has something to do with the way the window terminates at the rear. I dont know, just looks a little bulky in that area.

Otherwise, nice ride

Bill Ford was not impressed with last years Shelby concept so he had them build another one b/c of the huge public attention the first concept drew. This is suppose to be based off of the Cobra, but rather the Daytona Coupe.

Automotive News / August 16, 2004

Ford Motor Co. took the wraps off the Shelby GR-1 concept coupe last week, saying the vehicle could succeed the $140,000 Ford GT. The GR-1 is a front-engine, rear-drive two-seater that uses the same platform architecture as the Ford GT. The company has said the car, if approved, would cost about $80,000.
