Ford Shelby GR-1
The Ford Shelby GR-1 was a $2.2 million dollar concept car that was created by the Ford Motor Company. It was first introduced at the 2005 North American International Auto Show. The GR-1 was created with the inspiration from the Shelby brand. It was inspired by and bears resemblance to the Shelby Daytona.
Much of the GR-1 chassis and running gear is based on the Ford Shelby Cobra Concept, which was presented one year earlier at the 2004 North American International Auto Show. As with the Ford Shelby Cobra Concept, GR-1 project was led by Manfred Rumpel and developed by Ford's Advanced Product Creation group.
The GR-1 uses a 6.4L all-aluminum V10 engine and also has certain components from the Ford GT. The GR-1 is rated up to 605 hp (451 kW) and up to 501 lb·ft (679 N·m) of torque. It uses a 6-speed manual transmission.
In Atari's game Test Drive Unlimited, the Ford Shelby GR-1 is the most expensively priced car, at 2 million credits.
Ford F-250 Super Chief
The Super Chief uses a V10 Tri-Flex engine that has supercharged aspiration and induction. In total there are twenty valves in the engine (2 valves for every cylinder). The Super Chief's engine is hydrogen-powered. It can also run on gasoline and ethanol.
In design, the Super Chief surpasses the designs of past F-series concept vehicles which include the Ford F-250 Super Crew and the Ford F-250 King Ranch. The front-end and grille of the Super Chief was inspired by locomotives, which makes the Super Chief look slightly more aggressive. The Super Chief also has a new feature created by Ford, called BlockerBeam that can help even out crash energy on the Super Chief and another vehicle in the event of a collision.
