What does it mean when a dedicated 2 Prius owner finds himself drooling over Auto Show pix of the new Shelby Super Snake Mustang? (And no, My Bride will NOT be buying me one) . . . Reveal: 50th Anniversary Shelby GTS 500 Super Snake | freep.com | Detroit Detroit Auto Show | Detroit Free Press
It means you're not completely cured yet. Hardly your fault, though - humanity's baser instincts are a pretty easy target.
Base human instincts? Oh, please. It means you ought to consider the new Boss 302 Laguna Seca track version instead. That's the new Mustang to drool over.
Right On Pinto Girl! Since I have this (foreground), I am already weird? The Prius compensates for all the mpg lost in a 427 side-oiler. However the fun factor in driving it is worth being bad!
For half the price of that Snake you can get this: http://www.saginawwings.com/swift-market-place/images/ad78311b.jpg There ain't anything that Shelby can do that the Swift can't do faster with more elegance and 100 times the thrill and fun. Better looks, fully aerobatic, plus, no risk of speeding tickets. But then I've never understood the allure of cars when there are airplanes in the world - it's like getting excited by a gourmet hamburger when the same outlay will buy filet mignon.
Except, you can't burn rubber down Main Street with open exhausts, hear all the car alarms go off and scare old ladies and children off the street with an airplane unless you're dropping bombs. So whether its politically or environmentally incorrect, a Cobra is part of American history and the smiles that come back from those who know is priceless. And many women like Cobras including some old ladies.
I must concede that without the Cobra we wouldn't have had this most priceless of smilers: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-JQksYxgM0"]Bill Cosby 200MPH - YouTube[/ame]
