I love the shape and lines of the Dax; and John Tojeiro, the designer of the original AC Ace did have a hand in its execution. I like the AC "COB" Cobras as much as the Shelbys - for me it's all about the look, sound and performance, not brand loyalty or hero worship.

As a modern Cobra interpretation I like this car and since I am more of a Cobra fanatic than a Shelby/Ford fanatic, I have no issue with the source of the powertrain. I would be fine with any modern high performance V8 under that long, sexy hood.

If Lubinsky wasn't Lubinsky I would be excited about this car. T'would be nice if the German company could limit their association to a licensing deal and go ahead with production. I'd have one in a heartbeat.
