Looking to the Ford Mustang for inspiration, Shelby American just announced plans to build 98 special edition 2021 Shelby Super Snake "Speedster" cars for the U.S. market.
"From a styling perspective, there is simply nothing like it on the road," said Gary Patterson, president of Las Vegas-based Shelby American, who shuttles between homes in Logandale, Nevada, and Newport, Michigan.
"With the wide body option, it's a rare combination of sleek elegance and American muscle machismo. This is the automotive equivalent of a powerful heavyweight boxer fitted into a stylish, fine suit," he said.
This is the first two-seat roadster version ever offered of the Shelby Super Snake, which takes its design cues from a car created by Shelby American in 1967.
