I'd take a Cobra! That thing looks sweet ass sweet!

The Cobra would make a great weekend or summer car!

Like the 320HP 1999 Cobra that put less HP to the ground than the 260HP GT? <grin>

if ford brings this exact car out, with a very nice interior, it will outsell all other coupes like hotcakes. lookout to every other manufacturer, ford just might be hitting a sweet home run with this one.

The GT already has 400 horses, the Cobra has to have at least 500 because the new Lightning concept truck which is drop dead gorgeous has 500 Hp, 500 Torque. All the magazines have analyzed the 2005 Mustang concept with great reviews. It promises to be stellar.

The concept GT has 400 hp, but I doubt that will be in production. This is just a guess, but they might put the Mach 1 DOHC 4.6 in the new GTs with a little over 300 hp, and leave the supercharged 4.6 for the Cobra.

Side view reminds me of Aston Martin! Sign me up for a new
Stang! Never owned one but have always liked them! That's just one hot looking Mustang. And Chevy is killing the Camaro?!

Hate to break it to ya, but that WAS fact. Ford did a recall on pretty much every '99 Cobra to do a intake swap to try to get the HP up to posted numbers. The 4V block wasn't performing any better than the 2V block in the GT.

They also had nasty wheel hop issues with the Cobra's independent rear suspension which caused them to bring a bunch back for re-work.

All are facts, search the 'Stang forums if you don't believe me....

Two of the reasons I settled for a '00 GT instead of a Cobra. And that was a P.O.S. that got traded 10 months later on a '01 CL-S.....

My first reaction is I WANT ONE! But I'm wondering, will it have a tacky plasticy interior and the reliability of a 1986 Jag?

You stated that they dynoed lower than GTs, that was never the case. Did they dyno low? They sure did, just not to the 220s-230s like a Gt will. Again, your "facts" are off.

Trust me. You're not breaking anything to me chief.

UAW is great! American car quality has been greatly improving over the years.
