How could this not be posted already? maybe I missed it and this is a repost.. oh well...

wow thats friggin awesome, is it really going to be 500 hp or are they just saying it, what parts did they change?

Ford FTW

not exactly sure.. probably through tuning and tweaking. you have to think, its engine is pretty similar to the Ford GT that puts out 500 hp and 550 tq

yeah 500hp and 480 trq.....I cant wait to see videos of these cars, i wonder how much they will go for, i want one

they'll go for 100k im sure.. ford says they've already sold the first and half the second year of production

there's a problem with the crank shaft housing or somethign, and production might be delayed...

and damn..I want one :(

anyone know if there is going to be just a regualr 2007 cobra? not shelby or what about 2008?

nope.. the cobra name is being dropped for now, but im sure it'll return

mmmmm I would kill to have the chance to port thw S/C and swap the pulley ........ooooooo I wanna hear the sound clip of the whine..lol ::chills:::devil2:

nice, they should then sell the weight reduction kit and suspension upgrades along with it... and POOF you got a vette beater...

which vette are you talkin about?? With aggressive gearing, it could compete with the new z06. pulley swap and itd smoke it.

9 psi....PALEASE! http://www.mcmmotorsports.com/smilies/faint.gif Pulley down and go for 12 or 15 PSI even. Then watch EVER FRIGGIN CAR ON THE ROAD DO THIS:

I would love to have one too, but this car is soooo unattainable it is rediculous.

Wouldn't mind having one. Still don't like the body style of the new stangs. But the Cobra is cool, mostly knowing it has a 500 hp 330 ci engine in it seals the deal.

i posed it but couldnt get the html to copy right and i didnt want to do it manually so i gave up.

lol

wtf are u talkin about??

read csledds above post and it will make perfect sense.

100k
 

Well, i hope they're not selling for 100k, I am on a waiting list on the military program and they are telling me around 40k, and i got a good chance of getting a slot. So, if anybody knows somebody who wants to pay 100k, i'll gladly give them mine and get a Z06 :pepper:

Lets just hope ford stays true to its word. We don't need another 99 cobra fiasco!

theres also talk of a 428... i post new topic

yea going to be awesome..but it's going to be so heavy !_! 3900lbs+

That's why it won't be able to compete with the new z06 vette in stock form. Ford needs to figure out a way to do some weight reduction cause it's getting out of hand....but I guess the "big" muscle car era is trying to make a comeback.

Better yet, KB 2.4 that bitch!!!:D

the retail price on them is like 40k.. but because they're so in demand ive heard dealerships quote a lot more than 40k

that is freak'n awesome 500hp!!! i want one
