Believe me when I say I looked no SuperCharger/TurboCharger, The car still had the orginal Aircleaner assembly connected tp the throttle body.

Got a good laugh out of this one.

PT Barnum said many times "there's a sucker born every minute."

Someone sold the poor guy a 300 horse base V6 with Cobra bling slapped on it. Oy...

I get what your saying, but the GTR is twin turbo if I'm not mistaken.

It's the terralinga. Not sure I spelled that correctly. It's a Shelby American product.

Correct spelling is Terlingua.

You are correct.

The Terlingua is a V6 Ford Mustang fitted with a Racing Team package that includes performance enhancements and modified cosmetic details by Shelby.

The Teringua also features improvements to the handling and braking capabilities that were developed with Ford Racing as well as an optional supercharger.

The model features a deep draw hood, 20” anthracite “Razor” wheels and a comprehensive styling changes including a logo with the Terlingua rabbit "Lucifer".

The package is applied by Shelby Automobiles in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Base model was 375 HP I believe.

Went to the ford site and checked out the specs for all the 2013 stangs. No listing for a 400hp v6. I'm very skeptical.

2xSSRS · 06-16-2012, 06:57 PM

I think it must have some mods of some kind.

jackyl22 · 06-16-2012, 07:06 PM

The only Shelby Cobra Ford makes for 2013 and all past models is a V8. This guy is being stupid. Think about it why would Ford put out a V6 that pretty much out does the 5.0. the new 13 Shelby is a 5.8L 650 HP monster. I shopped it before I bought my SS.

Unlike the GT500 which is a Ford production car this is a Shelby American tuner car.

Would trade my SS with 300 miles on it for a GTR any day and twice on sunday. And this is my second 5th gen.

Regardless of the engine, it still says FORD. Yuck.
