I came across this Terminator while shopping for a new Shelby GT500 in the summer of 2006. It was sitting on a Ford dealership lot in Edmonton, AB, Canada. It had just rolled in with 865 miles on it. The previous owner had been transferred to a remote town in the north and could not take the car with him. When it first arrived, the salesman I had talked to a few weeks previous phoned me and told me I should seriously take a look at this car as it was virtually new and quite rare (1 of 72). I told him I would drive down the next day to look at it. He phoned me again about 2 hours later and said there now was 4 other fellows at the dealership who were interested and I needed to make a decision quickly. In those two hours I had done some research on that particular vehicle and decided to take a chance. I bought it over the phone, sight unseen. The 4 other fellows weren't too happy but it turned out to be one of the best decisions I made that year. The car is totally awesome, love the color, the ride, the power, the hole nine yards. It has won in 3 car shows and after engines mods it was dynoed at 658 hp @ flywheel, 542 hp @ the tires, it is a true sleeper and a lot of fun. It has a daily diet of 1 or 2 Vipers and a Corvette for dessert. Hats off to American Muscle for helping me out fit this poisonous beast. |
