The Shelby Cobra is in my opinion the best looking British car ever built (I've always thought it was Amrican. Thanx for the corrections :) ). Although it has a timeless design, I've already seen some redesign attempts by design enthusiast and by the company itself, but only few of them really made a new design that features the best of the original and adds some more speciality to it's appearence with the modern touch. Shelby itself didn't make a good looking car that deserves carrying the name of the original Cobra. I really hope this attempt does.

For all of you non-car-freaks who don't know what I'm talking about, here is the original Cobra: [link]

Didn't know it was british, but agree about the design. Recently went to a classic car show with over 600 cars, and probably around 400 unique ones in total. Quite a lot of duplication, but that aside, the few cobras there were the best looking and best sounding in my opinion. hoping to get one in the next few years instead of the GTR i always wanted.

It's better than the original AC Cobra! It's the greatest car redesign attempt I have ever seen! I'm a big fan of Shelby and Ford and lots of other brands, and I can't upload my car designs because, well, I'm just 11 years old. Very nice!

The body was bought by Shelby from a British company called AC and that's the only part if the car that is British Shelby(American) put a large v8 in it and changed the running parts. So yes technically the body is British but the rest is American.

Come on. We need a few more views of this car. It deserves to be seen in all of its glory. Great job.

I adore the smooth texture which makes it look extra sleek and fast and accentuates the muscle of the car. The lightning-like light coming from the headlamps is badass too! I'm not a particular fan of the new Cobra concept (I remain a faithful old-school worshiper, and the curves of the old one are far superior to the new streamlined look) but it's undeniably hot and is recognizable as a Cobra without trying too hard to be retro, like the new Challenger.
