I think this car will make it to production as a GT replacement in 2006 or 2007.

I think a 605hp v10 tops it just fine. That and i'm sure it handles and stops a heck of lot better. Performance wise, it should top it easily.

Just saw that too. What a cool car...and cool new show! Next weeks show looks good also. I think Ford did a good job on the new Cobra. That was awesome seeing Carol doin' a big ol' burnout in his new Cobra

That thing is so ugly. Ford will never learn, move forward not backwards.

I think it's a good evolution from the original, unlike the new Mustang which is a total ripoff of the '67-'68 model years. By the way it sounded on the show "Rides", at least they got that V10 to sound close to the 427 like in the original Cobra; unlike the Viper's V10 which sounds like a big V6.

that statement might have been more effective if you had a toyota prius and not the good ole straight-axle,pushrod-V8 powered muscle car.
