NFS Edition Shelby Terlingua Mustang

Written By: Rod Chong - Speedhunters.com

"I'm afraid of Americans" was the name of a David Bowie song of recent times... I have to say I can relate to this song a little bit. As a Canadian who spent most of my adult life living in the UK, I find America to be a crazy, intriguing and perhaps slightly intimidating place. Sometimes, it's every bit as foreign to me as some of you would consider say Germany or even Japan. That said, I do love many aspects of the country and its people. The can do attitude is something that I find very inspirational and have firmly adopted into my own personal viewpoint. One other element that I absolutely love about American culture is the muscle car. There is something so brash and bold about these types of cars. I think most car fans will agree muscle cars have a universal appeal about them. Doesn't matter where you are from, a tough and loud American muscle car will always bring a smile to your face.

So what is it like to drive a full blown fire breathing American muscle car? How does it make you feel? We'll look into these questions in a little bit but first a little bit of information about this special project. For the past few months we've been working closely with Shelby Automotive to create a one off Need for Speed edition version of their Terlingua Mustang. Our own in game car designer, Mike Hayes actually prototyped the look of the car inside the new Need for Speed Undercover game engine and then worked with Shelby to bring the style of the car into reality.
