According to this article The Shelby goes 0-60 in 4.6 sec but that air filter problem was kinda funky for me.

I think the only car I will take over the Evo are: A Lambo or a Ferrari

i'd give it up for a ferrari. then i'd sell the ferrari, buy my EVO back, finish modding it, put a huge downpayment on a house, then pocket the rest.

I would stick with my EVO. I can't stand the interior of those new mustangs. Also, the heavy weight of the shelby is a turn-off for me, but straight line perfomance of the shelby is impressive.

I dk I think I'd probably take the Shelby to be honest. Something about that car I always thought was just so badass, since day one.

i know a lot of kids with SC cobras, theyre fast no doubt, but most of the time theyre too busy fixing **** that broke from just regular driving. ford isnt known for quaility. this is a shelby tho so it may be built better. evos have their fair share of problems, but all in all, its a very well built car. plus evos are more fun to drive and have a lot possibilities and potential. id probably tade my evo for that 07 911 turbo

Well, If I had to get something that I could afford, it would be a BMW 335i. With a reflash and exhaust of course.

Realistically speaking, the only sports car that I would trade the Evo for is the C6 Z06, as I could afford that car in 4-5 years.

The Shelby GT500 is a joke. Heavy, slower than a base C6 Vette, and about the same amount of money. No thanks.
