Cobra R for sure. The bosses may very well be faster, but faster =/= race car

Also, kinda unrelated, but Gary's comment reminded me of this picture

It's accepted by R owners that the LS is faster around the track. And in the 1/4.

Regardless of which is better at the track (which many people who buy these cars don't do) I would think most people would buy the R for awesomeness, and rarity.

Oh if we got into the question of which is cooler, I think the R would win that one for sure! (Not literately cooler though).
I used to want an 04 Terminator and make it an exact R clone (but with more boost under the hood)

Agreed! And that would be pretty cool!

Only thing I hate about the R is the picnic table on the back

I had a dream last night I was racing the R through the empty streets in my town. And the whole time I was *****ing about how big the A pillar was and how I couldn't see well into a left turn.

Which is stupid because its not the case.

Evidently I ate too much for dinner or something.

I'd go with the Leguna Seca Boss 302. That's a track car that can take that Cobra R Race car. But, I ain't pushing either of them out my garage.
