The 04' Cobra looked very similar to an 04' GT. Wonder if that will be the case in 07' :scratch:


I hope they make it look different so people can see your driving around a 450 hp car, but then again they should be able to hear it...

There is only one guarantee in SVT land.. Every time somebody posts in this thread, Crazyhorse is soon to follow... If nothing else, he should get the first one off the line for the sheer enthusiasm he has shown.

I count down the days and look forward to receiving more information.

Thought I better respond. Didn't want your prophecy to fail.

As you have probably read before. I have been waiting on this car for a long time. Reading and posting on this board is all I have to keep me from going completely over the edge. If you think I am bad on here, you should talk to my wife. She is in a hurry for the Cobra to be released just to get me to shut up.

I will take that first one off the line if you all (and Jay Leno) don't mind.

Your wife too? My wife is complaining that this is the most talked about thing since I was hunting for a '69 GT500 Convertible.....she just wants me to buy it and stop talking about it! Oh, yeah....and she wants to drive it, too!!!
After this, I'll need a new hobby...with all the free time I'll have

S197Cobra

Very similar? Different rear bumper cover, different front bumper cover, different hood, different spoiler, ...

I don't really have any trouble picking out Cobras from GT's even from a long distance. Not that I really care if anyone recognizes my car for what it is... they're only going to see taillights anyway

I think those are suddle diferences. Ya it says cobra on the bumper... but thats hard to see. The biggest dif is the ducktail spoiler (which is awesome).


I want there to be a bigger difference. (Mabey different taillights, flared bumpers, and other little details?)


Hey does the 05' GT have HID headlights like on BMW's? The guy at my dealership did not know lol

Four...I have a countdown going in my instant messenger profile so everyone on my buddylist has to see it I'll go ahead and take the third one B)

Easy on the quotes, you're making my head spin. :P

wakerider017

what do you guys think of the Saleen?

Saleen's patented Series 6 twin-screw supercharger gets bolted on so this engine produces 500 horsepower and 480 lb-ft of torque.

Nice engine.... but too flashy for me.

mr-mstng

Nice, but let's stick with the Cobra in this thread.

PLStangman4.6L-03

I am not so sure the production GT we got was like the "Terminator" they presented. The production GT was missing the following items: Glass top roof, Cobra Misano L seats, side scoops, Duel vented hood, 20 inch rims, and about 100 + horses.

I understand that they have to leave room for the aftermarket companies, but for me it was missing some really nice features.

None the less, I am still a mustang junkie and I am eagerly awaiting the Cobra release

crazyhorse

I'm talking about the concept for the 2003/2004 Cobra - code named terminator.

13 days and counting!!!

I am going to keep my GT,but my wife is dying for the cobra.She called our dealer to get on the waiting list,but he said there is no list for now.He said she can have the first one in.Her brother is friends with dealership owner.Its gonna be a long year for her.

S197Cobra

I guess it's just a matter of perspective. I agree that it's hard to see the "COBRA" written on the bumper. But the different shape of the bumper itself, along with the black insert along the bottom, and of course the wedgie wing, all make it easy for me to pick out a Cobra. From the front it's even easier with the great big lower fascia and foglights & such, not to mention the hood.

I wouldn't mind if they would bring back the export lights like they did in '99/01 (yellow turn signals). Not a huge difference, but it was kinda cool.

No, it does not have HIDs from the factory. I would have to find a way to retrofit them, I have HIDs on my Cobra now and I'm addicted...

I want to be the first one in Europe to drive one. Kinda cool to have a 97 and an 07.

wakerider017

Do you think its gonna be a 24V or 32V?

pjcobra9t7

I was hoping for a 32V, but I think it will be a 24V to reduce cost. I always liked the big valve covers of the DOHC motors, like my 97. Now we get the IMO less beautiful ones. On the other hand. There is more room for changing headers.
