2013 Grille the same as a 2011-2012 GT500?

I was just looking at grilles for the 2013 GT and notice that the 2011-2012 Shelby Cobra had a similar config. I thought I remember reading that they adopted the styling for the 2013 from the cobra. Probably not the same...just curious since they look somewhat similar...any info?

It's Shelby GT500. Ford has not made a Cobra since 2004. Just sayin'...

That's an interesting point. Even though there are Cobra emblems on the cars, Ford has been very careful not to use the term "Cobra" when referring to the GT500's since they came out in '07. I assume it's a contract thing with Shelby.
