I can't believe they're taking the Shelby letters off the trunk lid. They weren't "gaudy" at all. So now, unlike the Shelby Mustangs of old (at least the 67-70 models) the new Shelby Mustang will look unique only from the front, rather than all angles. I've already seen many GT's with the twin stripes. The old ones had side scoops and different tail lights as well as a different front end. Who wants to spend 40-45k for a Shelby Mustang when the word "Shelby" will be tiny or completely absent, and most casual observers (from the rear at least, where they will be most likely seeing it from) will simply think it's a tricked-up GT? Well..me, for one. But I'm still dissapointed. As for the hood-has Ford ever heard of RAISED HOOD SCOOPS? The old Shelby Mustangs had 'em. Helps clearance problems every time..
