Offered for your consideration is a very special 2006 Shelby GT-H. Shelby American Automobiles serial number CSM 06H354, this vehicle is one of only 500 GT-H’s built in 2006, and is one of only 23 sold to Hertz Vice Presidents, thus never saw rental car duty. These Executive Cars were never placed in the rental fleet.   I am the second owner of this vehicle, having purchased it from the original owner Hertz VP directly. It has led a pampered life, showing only 8804 miles on the odometer, as of this ad placement. Always garaged, and never driven in inclement weather.   This car is for the discerning collector. Its pedigree is legendary, having been produced to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Hertz’s original tie up with Carroll Shelby back on 1966. This GT-H comes complete with literally a stunning level of documentation, including: original Ford window sticker, original invoice from Shelby Automobiles to Hertz for work performed at Shelby’s Las Vegas shop, what appears to be every email correspondence between the Hertz VP who purchased the vehicle new and the Hertz organization facilitating its production and shipment, and collateral ephemera made available by Hertz to the purchasing VP.   The car is in close to mint condition, although there are a couple very small paint/stripe blemishes. Car is completely original - no cosmetic item replacements, etc. Mechanically, it is excellent, and passed an extensive state safety inspection a short time ago. The car is 100% stock and unmodified, with only a replacement Ford battery.   All 2006 Shelby GT-H’s began as 2006 Ford Mustang GT Premium cars, however Hertz tweaked the normal package, for example substituting the V6 car’s faux rear gas cap featuring the pony instead of the standard GT cap. The vehicles were shipped to the Las Vegas Shelby American facility for conversion into true, serialized Shelby vehicles. Shelby work performed included Ford Racing performance suspension & handling package installation, Ford Racing exhausts and pipes, addition of a cold air intake, computer reflash, conversion of the dual exhaust into a free-flowing exhaust with X-pipe in place of the standard Ford H-pipe, 3.55 rear axle gearing not available from Ford directly on automatic equipped 2006 Mustang GT’s, exclusive fiberglass hand made Shelby hood with locking pins, unique front clip, unique grill, Hertz racing stripes, unique exterior and interior badging, steel wire with lead clasp engine tether to prohibit engine tampering, and unique Hertz exterior chrome fender badges.     I am happy to work with buyer to facilitate their chosen transportation as reasonable. Full payment in hand/bank cleared on checks and money orders required to facilitate transfer of ownership/ handover to transportation company. The bottom line is this is one of the very finest 2006 Shelby GT-H’s in existence. There is NO other GT-H better documented than this vehicle. If you must have the very best example, please give this car your serious consideration.

Ford Figo concept unveiled in India

Mon, 03 Feb 2014

Ford has officially unveiled the Figo Concept at the 2014 Auto Expo in New Delhi. While it may wear a concept badge, we'd argue this little sedan, which is under 12 feet long, looks ready to replace the current Figo and do battle with other B-segment cars in the world's emerging markets.
"With the Figo Concept, we are showing that choosing a compact sedan does not mean compromising on premium design or smart solutions," said Kumar Galhotra, Ford's VP of engineering, global product development. That premium design includes Ford's familial, trapezoidal grille and Fusion-esque headlights in front, while the rear end reminds us of the last-generation Focus Coupe. While that car wasn't exactly attractive, the chopped off tail looks pretty nice on this smaller car. And if you really don't like the looks of the Figo Concept, just remember - it looks better than the current production model. Aerodynamically, the Figo's shape is quite slippery, which means reduced wind noise and improved fuel economy.
As for the "smart solutions" touted by Galhotra, the narrow confines of Indian streets make driving even the tiniest cars a challenge. To give the Figo Concept a one-up on the competition, Ford has fitted power-folding mirrors that sport a "flexible architecture," which should stand up well to bumps from cars, people or bikes. We don't have any interior images, but Ford is promising a large cabin, that includes a dock that can accommodate a phone or MP3 player, allowing either to be controlled through the car.

TRANSLOGIC 147: CES 2014 Autonomous Vehicles

Wed, Jan 15 2014

We head back to CES in Las Vegas to check on the progress of autonomous vehicles in 2014. We go hands-free on the highway with Audi, narrowly avoid a collision with Ford and hear all about BMW's drifting driverless car. But first we take a ride on Induct's self-driving Navia shuttle.

These horribly misguided front-drive design studies nearly became the Mustang

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

As we eagerly await the unveiling of the all-new sixth-generation Mustang, Ford has been giving us some great information over the past few months showing what has gone into shaping its venerable pony car. As many changes as the Mustang has gone through in its 50 years, though, it appears the fourth-gen model played a decisive and pivotal role in the car's future.
As is part of Mustang lore, the front-wheel drive Ford Probe was originally developed as a next-generation Mustang in the Eighties before cooler heads prevailed. The Blue Oval has just released a handful of images showing how bad things could have been - including a full-scale clay model of a front-wheel-drive Mustang (shown above). Fortunately, the FWD Mustang plan was scrapped and Ford went to work designing a rear-wheel-drive replacement for the Fox Body Mustang, with three design studies making it far enough to become full-scale models. These include the soft "Bruce Jenner" Mustang, the over-the-top "Rambo" Mustang and the middle-ground "Arnold Schwarzenegger" Mustang, which finally became the basis for the 1994 'Stang.
By early 1991, the design language of the fourth-generation Mustang had been worked out, and the rest, they say, is history. Scroll down for the fascinating press release telling the story of the fourth-gen Mustang, and be sure to check out the gallery of horribly misguided sketches and various design studies that were all on the table in the late 1980s.
