That's fine with me. I'd actually have to have another car to drive most of the time. But, yeah...this thing would be a blast to drive around on the streets just for the sheer shock value. I'm betting it's loud and makes the nicest sounds!

It would look hot without that rear wing but I'm guessing that it's necessary on high speed corners for the added downforce.

Agreed.

Edit: That's like saying the front and rear wings on the Ferrari F2004 are rice.

There isn't much point in comparing custom built cars with stock from the factory cars. If you want to compare this with custom builts you should compare it with things like this..

Lingenfelter Corvette

"0-60 MPH 3.2 seconds with street tires
1/4 mile 9.50 @ 145 MPH with street tires
Estimated top speed 230+"

The grey hood is extremely tacky and the rear wing is ugly. The chrome exhaust tips look sweet too....

"The grey hood is extremely tacky and the rear wing is ugly. "


The hood is cool, it harkens back to the original Mach One.

And as for the wing, this car was built by Saleen, which means that wing is designed to be functional, not for looks.

I think the Mustang would to run in the GT class...where as the Viper would run in the GTS class. I know that the Corvette C5R is in the GTS class.
