Highlights:

"Looks to be the new Cobra or now known as the 2007 Shelby Cobra which will replace the old name Mustang SVT Cobra.

Claim it will produce 550hp and the 0-60mph time could dip below 4.0 seconds with a standing quarter mile in the low 12's or even high 11's and will have the GT's supercharged aluminum 5.4-liter V-8 and a stiffened, toughened version on the (Ford GT)GT's live axle with coil springs and an anti roll bar. it also will not weigh that much more then the Mustang GT which weighs in at 3520.

They are saying by getting rid of the IRS and putting in the solid axle they will be saving $70 million in development cost.

alright, that picture is from an old MT if i recall, at least 3-4 months ago. I know you are brand new around here, so I'll let you know that you should never go by MT info, especially when it is over a month old. Any new or current info will almost always come from this site before any car mag.

And that picture is just a crappy chop with some stripes, crappy looking off-center hood scoop and "motion blur" added to the wheels.

anyhow, welcome to TMS!!
