This thing actually looks pretty cool IMO. Is that the CDC agressive front piece?

I like the lack of stripe on top of the front bumper. It makes it feel like there's a separate piece there - same was a chrome bumper would break the stripe on a classic Mustang.

OMG, that is so funny !! I just saw that car yesterday at a local car meet down at the old OBI out on Oak Beach! I gotta say, in person the car looks very sharp. Perhaps i'll go again next Sunday morning and take my camera this time....lol.

Looks good, but I have to say mustang II fans will be very elated at this car. Wonder if they will call it Cobra III in the end. (and yes I know it is after market, but there is an undeniably Cobra II look to the hood and graphics)

I like the rear taillight treatment. Looks more like the 69-70 models.

Please do. Find out how that taillight treatment was done as well.

I used to hang at OBI back when it was open and also after for the weekend motorcycle meet at the wall. No longer in the area, know they tore it down, good to see the gearheads still heading down there to show off their stuff. A stop the weekly Bald Hill meet would probably reveal some custom 05's as well. Bring your camera!

Everytime I see the aggresive chin spoiler I like it better and better, now I just wish I could remove it like the '00 Cobra Rs so I could get in and out of my drive way.

Nice car but I wouldn't be suprised if he had Ford's lawyers knocking at his door for trademark infringment especially as he is part of a company trying to sell these.....

I'm almost certain this car is for his own personal use. To my knowledge, he does performance mods and dyno testing only.

Yeah, if i'm not too tired to get up early this coming Sunday, i'll head down to Oak Beach with camera in hand to try and get pics of that 'stang. While there were a ton of beautiful cars (not to mention a superb '66 GT-40 replica), there were only two '05 Mustangs. Went to a show later in the day over at Flower Fields where they had alot of '05's with all different mods. Again, no camera and had to leave early because my buddy's 3 yr old was getting a lil' pissy due to the heat.

Looks good, except for the big "COBRA" lettering on the stripes and the white wheels.

How so? What, you can't do what you want anymore with your own personal car?
