2011 Shelby GT500 Coupe - Editor's Notebook - Automobile Magazine
For 2011, the Shelby GT500 is just plain awesome.

For 2011, the Shelby GT500 is just plain awesome. Really, it was awesome last year too. But now it's 200 pounds lighter than the 2010 model, thanks mostly to an aluminum engine block, and has 10 more horsepower squeezed out of the blown 5.4-liter V-8. The powerplant now makes an unbelievable 550 hp -- 45 more than a Chevrolet Corvette Z06.

Sport Coupe Comparison: War of the Sports Car Worlds
Sport Coupe Comparison - 2010 Lotus Evora, 2011 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, 2009 Porsche 911 Carrera S, 2011 Nissan GTR - Automobile Magazine
The United States, Japan, Germany, and Great Britain may play nice with each other when it comes to diplomacy and economics, but in the sports car arena, it's an all-out war.

Once upon a time, before globalism became a favorite buzzword, cars really said something about the countries that produced them. The frugality and reliability of a Honda subcompact spoke to the ingenuity and determination of post-war Japan. The power and size of a tail-finned Cadillac convertible embodied American swagger. And so on. The automobile used to be as much an expression of culture as a country's art or food.
