That's awesome, too bad the dealer markup will kill it for 99% of us.

Its pretty cool Ford is going to build them, but we will probably never see them.

50 of them? That pretty much puts it in my "who cares?" bucket. I'll never see one, let alone have the chance to drive one or (God forbid!) the chance to own one. It might as well not even exist for all it will do for me.

Exactly the way I feel about this.

With only 50 being made I doubt that the car/engine is even EPA certified. Looks like an Off Road Only to me.

I don't think you'll have the chance :

"Ford is only planning to build 50 new Cobra Jets at the behest of a handful of dealers, who may end up buying all the cars and then re-selling them. The new drag racing specials are expected to be priced at $69,900."
