Conceptually Ricey

On this site there is a rather Ricey looking '05 Mustang "GT-R" concept. There are not any details about the car. I am hoping that it is not a production option that the engineers at Ford have come up with just to satisfy the "Fast and Furious" market. Judging by the previous photo (of the Escape Hybrid with Bill Ford), I think it might be something that Ford came up with and not some speed/chop shop came up with. I think it sucks. It looks like there are slicks on it and that the motor seems to be modified (turbo or supercharged, roll-cage, etc.). Since it has two seats, I would assume that it is meant - not so much for racing - but looking like a race car. The side-exhaust and rear wing indicates that it is intended for a ricer with enough dough to spend on a real car but not beefy enough for the SCCA circuit. Why can't Ford make a "GT-R" model for American muscle enthusiasts that does not look like something that you would see in a Paul Walker (I had to look up his name on www.us.imdb.com) movie. Make a me a sleeper that ends up being a street-sweeper and I will shell out the bucks for it.

Waiting to see what the '06 Cobra will act like!
