"Nothing has ever even tried to match the form or raw power of the Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe. It is something that was done once and done right. It is forever ensconced in our memory as a rare beauty and a road weapon of legendary potential. Once the fire is lit, the rumble of the short piped V8 will set your hairs on end before drenching them in sweat."—Official description[1]
The 1965 Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupé - abbreviated as "Shelby Daytona" - is a classic race car by Shelby.
It appears in Forza Motorsport 3 as part of the Motorsport Legends Car Pack and as standard in all subsequent main series titles.
