2014 Terminator???

[Det.Bullitt]

A friend of my dad that works on the 2014 Mustang project told him that they are looking into doing a Terminator Cobra again!!!! This time calling it a Terminator. Maybe he is teasing but how cool or uncool would that be? I'm not sure I want to see another Terminator. I wonder what would power it? Could this be the end of Shelby?

It would be very cool,


... but I can't help but think some Terminator fan somewhere is getting their chain seriously yanked.

I find this to be a low probability prediction.

The Shelby name isn't going anywhere soon.

 

[Det.Bullitt]

I agree

The Shelby name isn't going anywhere soon.

I agree. The Shelby name will be around for a while. As longs as Ford can make $15k a car because of the Shelby name it will be on a special Mustang.

I don't believe the rumors either. And to give it the Terminator name it would have to terminate everything in the lineup otherwise it would just sound dumb. They going to make it more powerful than the 5.8? Don't see it.

 

[Det.Bullitt]

I agree too

I agree. The guy that told my dad this is pretty reliable on info but I believe he is actually talking about another KR coming out. That would be the only thing Terminator worthy.

Hmm would be very interesting!

 

[Black306]

The idea of the Terminator project was to create a Mustang that terminates the competition, which was putting a hurting to pre-'03 Mustangs. Seems irrelevant to call an up-and-coming Mustang a Terminator when the current Mustang is already killing the competition. :shrug:

 

[Mr.Venom]

Don't believe it. You got trolled.

 

[RAPTOR5V]

lol. terminator

 

[brian97cobra]

it would be cool. but like everyone else states with shelby around i do not see them making another terminator anytime soon....

This! Forget about any special Cobra as long as Shelby's name is linked to Ford. Just isn't going to happen, as much as I'd love to see another Terminator.

I wouldn't think they would use the production name, "Terminator" again. You don't see aircraft manufacturers using their production code names twice do you? They may someday drop the Shelby name and go back to SVT Cobra. Hook, line, and sinker if you ask me...

 

[Tims97SVT]

Shelby has become a house hold name. Everyone knows them now, everyone that has money buys them just to say they have a Shelby. "oh you just have a mustang, well I have a Shelby.." Like stated if ford can make 15k a car, then the name is not going anywhere fast. Just an Svt mustang is out of the question anymore. Ford has done so well with the Shelby name on the car they will do whatever it takes to keep it. Just an Svt mustang would have to be 700+hp to wear a name like the terminator. The 03/04 terminator did just what it was supposed to do in 03/04. You could not buy a better bang for the buck car that performed like it did.

What u mean this time calling it a terminator..the 03/04 are terminators..apparently u never read iron foot lead fist? If u pull the factory side scoops off they are inprinted "terminator" only thing on the car that is.

yep. and no they won't ever nickname a project Terminator again, as dwight said some of the parts had terminator on them, MOST of these parts were changed out for fear of a trademark lawsuit. They know better know and just stick with the shelby moniker.

 

[zeusha]

I dunno, just wouldn't be a Terminator. I would still call it a 2014 Cobra unless something about it made it as may I dare to say "Legendary" as the 03-04 Cobra. As long as Mustangs are built I'm sure there will always be arguments about the 03-04 Cobra and what it meant to Mustang owners in 2003 and 2004. When the GT500 dropped it was no big deal. Last Mustang that people argued and raved over its position in the car world to me was either the S281 Model "E" or the 00 Cobra "R"

I agree this prediction is a pipe dream!:burn:

 

[Jibber]

yeah. NO way. Its ONLY been ten years since the 03/04's debut. Its too soon. I wouldn't rule it out in the future.
