what a car !!!

-Ford spent $5 million developing this car, and another $2 million just

building this particular one. This is the first and only one of this

type in existance, and was completed yesterday afternoon in California.

In January of 2004 it was sketched out on paper. In February a full

size mockup was molded in clay. Now, a year later, the real thing is on

it's way to the Detroit Auto Show. This car wasn't a mockup or a shell.

The sculptor, designer and escort for the car is hoping it will take

best of show this year. And Kitty Hawk delivered it!

This is the 2007 Ford Shelby GR1 concept car. If Ford decides to put it

into production, potential buyers can expect to pay around $200,000 for

it. The entire exterior of the car is polished aluminum, and it has

liquid cooled LED headlights. It was amazing seeing this car up close

and talking to the project leader for the studio that built it.

If only my camera could capture the sound of that V-10....
