Shelby Automobiles to Build 350hp V6 Mustang

The biggest Shelby news from SEMA today offered not a single opportunity to insert "pimping" into it. The company announced it's building a super-hot V6 Mustang, the CS6, which will sport a Paxton supercharger and 350+ horses. The model will finally bring some much-needed sporting cred to the V6 Mustang (pictured), long derided as a hairdresser's car, despite a relatively inspiring 210hp stock in the latest model. The company says the CS6 will "remind enthusiasts of the old GT350 — fast and strong but light on its feet." In addition to the engine mods, the CS6 will get a custom hood, brakes and 20" American Racing wheels, as well as special Shelby Automobiles badging.

  • Light on its feet with 20" American Racing billet anchors? Ha. The lack of understanding -- or concern -- with regard to unsprung weight is startling. Also, since I'm sure the price will exceed the stock Mustang GT, I just don't see the point. Fast Mustangs have big, N/A V8s. Blown sixes? Just wrong.
