Shelby CS 6 Mustang Concept
Ultimate Affordable Musclecar
Big block and small block V8 owners of all types may want to take a second look the next time a “V6” Mustang pulls up to the light as Carroll Shelby International Inc’s (CSBI.PK) wholly owned subsidiary Shelby Automobiles, Inc. announces the new Shelby CS 6 Mustang concept vehicle. Shelby Automobiles, known for speed and performance through the leadership of legendary racecar driver and Cobra creator Carroll Shelby, will offer a modified V6-engined 2006 Ford Mustang, dubbed the CS 6. Packed with a NOVI-1200 Supercharger from Paxton Automotive Corp., the CS 6 is destined to be the next great sports car from Shelby Automobiles pumping out an incredible 350+ horsepower. The Shelby CS 6 was introduced at the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show in Las Vegas in November.
The CS 6 features a Shelby-exclusive Paxton NOVI-1200 Centrifugal Supercharger, unsurpassed in high performance, reliability and quiet operation. The bolt-on NOVI-1200 is based on Paxton’s race-proven gear case, helical-cut gears constructed from billet-steel, aerospace-quality high-speed bearings and an air/water charge cooler. The CS 6 will be one of the most powerful supercharger kits for the V6 Mustang available on the market and its 350+ HP is a significant increase over the 210 HP of the stock Mustang and the GT version.
“Shelby Automotive is excited to offer the CS 6 with a focus on balance, performance and affordability,” said Amy Boylan, President of Shelby Automobiles. “With the Paxton Supercharger, the suspension modifications and the subtle cosmetic enhancements, the CS 6 will remind enthusiasts of the old GT350—fast and strong but light on its feet. There is going to be a lot of excitement from speed aficionados when the CS 6 hits the market.”
2005 marks the 40th Anniversary of the Paxton-supercharged Shelby Mustang legacy dating back to the famed GT350 and GT500 programs in the late 1960’s. In 1965, Carroll Shelby fitted a prototype Paxton Supercharger to the GT350 starting the Shelby/Paxton relationship. Eleven total Paxton supercharger kits were installed by the Shelby factory and a number of additional kits were sold to customers for retro installation. The CS 6 stands poised to continue the great Shelby/Paxton tradition of producing consummate performance-modified autos.
The Shelby CS 6 is racing-styled in the custom of great Shelby cars from the past but updated to create a unique and modern design. Among the interior and exterior modifications to the CS 6:
Custom hood
Custom brakes
Custom 20" American Racing wheels
Shelby Automobiles badging
Available in the first part of 2006, the Shelby CS 6 will be sold through Shelby Automobiles Las Vegas headquarters and a national dealer network. Interested buyers can contact Shelby Automobiles at (702) 942-7325 or visit the company's web site at www.shelbyautos.com for more info.

A new hood design to encase the V8 with a single scoop for air redirection
New fender swells and rocker panels
Specially-designed front bumper, side scoops, rear wing and fenders

One set of 5.25" coaxials
Three 10" subwoofers for the trunk

Beautiful. Just beautiful. that car, looks-wise, is gorgeous.
Too bad the new Mustang, in general, is so cheaply made.
The quality of materials inside is so poor it is offensive.

The CS6 is awesome!!! And I'm not even a big fan of the new Mustang. I wonder how much they're asking for it?
The West Coast Customs....well....it looks ridiculous with all those big round lights in front. Common guys....shame on you. And the wheels are WAY too big. BIG BIG BIG is not better if you ask me.

They both look awsome. But I like the Shelby more. It has smaller lights and a smaller wing. I do like the stripes on the WCC Mustang though. In a perfect world, I would have the wheels transferred over to the Shelby along with the side, rear bodykit, stripes and the Supercharged V8.
