Daytona Coupe Proves Shelby’s Genius

By -

day

After Shelby beat the ever living heck out of Ferrari at Le Mans, the gas swilling Texan went about at creating a faster version of the car with a brand new body. Dubbed the Daytona Coupe, the car went on to win countless more races and set itself firmly in the annals of history as one of the coolest cars of all time. Between the 427 motor, and the cars good looks, there’s just nothing like it.

That said, while looking at it is fine, hearing the Daytona Coupe roar around a racetrack is something other worldly, and this particular Shelby Daytona coupe sounds just epic being tossed around at full speed around a track. Just listen to the symphony that is this car’s V8 bust around the track flat out.

Want some even crazier information, this particular Daytona Coupe is one of the originals and as such is worth $7.25 million. Try that pucker feeling on for size.
