Twin Supercharged 800hp 427 V8


hello guy?

Yeah, that' pretty much voids having an automatic. LOL Give me an auto Twin Supercharged 800hp 427 V8 anyday.

That's a hella nice car though.

I was reading about this coming up a week or so ago. They were expecting it bring big bucks.

I was lucky enough to get a ride in an original Shelby Cobra when i was younger. I was at my uncles house and his friend had one that he eventually auctioned off. IIRC he got like $70k for it. This was back in about '88 or so. Not many people can say they've driven in a real Shelby Cobra.

I'm gonna get one of the kit cars and put a built SR in it.

lol DO IT!!!!!

dont do it








please?

Wow 5 million bucks, I guess some people just have so much money they dont know what to do with it. I on the other hand am scrimping ang saving to buy my New Wheels lol

i was gonna buy it...but i foundout it was auto and decided to pass :P haha

wow and the other is now gone.

wow....that is a really nice car, uber rare, and looks to be heavily restored and maintained. The fact that it was owned and driven by Carrol Shelby adds more value to the car.

wow. looks hot. 5mill? i'd sure want that too

I love it. my grandad used to have a real cobra.

if i park that at the mall and go shopping for 30 min, will it still be there when i come back out?

i highly doubt anything would be left

Think it'll spin em?

hmmm 5 bugatti veyrons please.

my dad was there..he said it was insane!! he got a 68 chevelle SS, not as cool as the cobra haha

fuck it. i hope they drift it.




:cj:

pudding yummmmmmmmmmmmm, you know that shit is funn to drive, and i bet you that puddin mofo gets tat shit sideways on the regular, not intentionally. but still tats alot of power in a light car too keep straight.

I'd rape that thing on the track.
Not gonna lie.
I'm gonna slip it some scotch and snatch that tang.

LOL 5 million for a Found On Road Dead all because Shelby farted in it

Common people it's just a joke lighten up and stop leaving me all these negative rep points.

now, that's funny

nice car but I pissed everytime I flip channels only to see hours upon hours of barret auction on the Speed channel or Nascar... sigh..

Damn fucking straight. I dont care about rich ass punks buying cars. Fuck, they dont even sell race cars really. I wanna see people bidding for the winner of the last Nextel Cup and shit like that( Its America, no one would pay for LeMans/F1/Rally cars.)
