I don't care for the new car much yet but the presentation was cool for the most part. The think that killed it for me was old Carrol Shelby, turned it right off as soon as his greedy ass hit the stage.

I really liked the design of the new hood and the wheel choice was very nice. Thought the gold was a cool color on it too. Would of liked to see more interior shots of the car though.

BTW, Ashley Force look like she was 60 years old with her closeups in High Def!

I watched it. I thought it was a good segment. Definitely looks better than in the pics. Cant wait to see one up close in person now. Still have reservations about the back end.. but we'll see ;)
