"order in the fall, available in spring."

Not that dealers know, but, that is what mine told me. Of all the dealers, i trust this one. He told me 13 months ago there would be a Shelby Cobra.

 

According to my source, pre-orders may in fact be able to be taken as early as late summer but that is not iron-clad as of today. Very likely was as strong as he would say.

 

I'l be ordering as soon as possible, unless the IRS option thing is true and it isn't available for a few months. If it is an '08 option, I won't be waiting that long.

 

Steve,
Could you tell me what that car is in the Picture by your name? Looks like what i figured the Cobra may look like in the front.

 

I hope to put in an order as soon as I find a dealer willing to give me MSRP (or better with the X-plan). I want IRS, so let's just hope Ford comes through with it in the first iteration, so we don't have to wait.

 

Good eye there, 777! It's a 2005 Roush Mustang GT Stage 1. I had the opportunity to drive it last week.

Here are some pics of it:

 

How did you like it. I have driven a 2001 360R. IT was really sweet.

 

OHHHHHH thats what that is. heh. Thanx for filling me in Steve.
I was kinda wondering cause my thought is the Cobra should have Round foglights in the bumper similar to that and every other Cobra ever made.

 

I think I like the Roush body mods better than all the others from SEMA. 'specially the tail. What can I say, I'm an as-s man.

 

I thought the Roush kit was gorgeous - but the price add-on was over $12,000!!!

Way TOO much with no performance mods to go with it! All show, no go.

 

Info on the new Cobra - release in 2006?

I think we need to consolidate threads. These links were posted Saturday and Sunday in other threads...
