Eleanor, make way for the Obsidian

autopartswarehouse.com
You remember Eleanor from Gone in Sixty Seconds (2000)? It was the Mustang that became an overnight sensation after the movie. Every single car is compared to Eleanor. She has become the measuring stick of great cars.

However, with the release of the Obsidian SG-1, I think we will be saying farewell to Eleanor soon.

The Obsidian SG-1 is a culmination of the old and the new. Its technologies are as modern as any car on the road, but its look its exterior design is a throwback.

Most of the engine details are still undisclosed. What we do know is that it packs a SVO 351W V8, 392 cubic inches with two super chargers feeding two intercoolers! Did you get that? Not to mention it also records 830 units of horsepower and 770 pounds of torque. It comes with a 5-speed manual gearbox.


I think this car is equipped to travel through wormholes, time, well with all that it has its going to travel fast through something.

About the exterior? It is fashionably outfitted with a tube frame and a hidden cage. It has Mustang headlights working on to the nose. With regard to interior, it’s packed with a killer sound system with a 10.5 TV screen. This car is packed with the latest gizmos and gadgets that technology offers. This is an instant classic; search it on the net to find its true power!

Eleanor who?
