Rendered Speculation: Cobra Venom

wow... it looks really, really hot! i hope it will be built someday.

THIS IS A BMW Z8 ALL CHOPPED UP. NICE JOB BUT TO BASE AN AMERICAN ICON ON A BMW IS A DISCRACE

One word to describe those headlights: Yuck! This concept needs a better face. I mean it's 2008 and this is the best they can do? I think the legendary name itself deserves better; nothing looks balanced about the car. I know it's only a concept, but I still get the impression that this design was thrown together over night, without any real thought given to it's linage. The Series 1 was a beautiful design, imo, but had the cheapest looking interior that I've ever seen in a 100k plus car. But this thing looks like something fresh off a Korean car company's drawing board (I like foreign cars, btw, just nothing Korean). I wouldn't feel this way if it was just another concept but were're talking the legendary AC Cobra here, and so far, they've fail with this one. Jmho.

I'm liable to all sorts of insult for suggesting this, but it reminds me, in an obscure way, of the BMW Z8....?

JPM dont you read others comments it is a bmw z8 chopped

Hummm, i seem to remember Ford thought about 'reviving' it... strange seeing as, though shelby were no longer involved, the Cobra has been made continuously ever since, and still is, by AC. it never actually went away, so why all this talk of reviving it?

I like it, it looks like a Snake and thsi car would be an essentially all new model for Shelby. Owing nothing beyond slight family resemblanes to older shelbys'. Other than that it can look as different as it wants. Bear in mind also, that this is just a 2d sketch so the production will be somewhat different(nicer/more aggressive looking). Do It.
